   Here is a picture of what a 12" Crescent look like. http://www.odiewhitemachinery.com/jointers.htm

   Wish I were on the East Coast for this.

   wonderfull old equipment like this is a real find.. Expect to rebuild the unit completely for any degree of accuracy and expect that a machinist would be a major expense..

     Just for information the cheapest  I see a jointer that size sell for today is around $5000.00 and there is little actual differance between an old one and the new one in function or operation..

     Do expect that it would be a three phase motor which would require either a new motor or a converter.   Very few people have three phase in their homes or nearby..
