We have at work an old 18" Crescent wood jointer, and it runs like a top.  We hardly use it any more and would like to either sell or scrap it.  I think the only thing wrong with it is the blades could be removed and sharpened, because it leaves chatter marks on the edges of the boards.  If anyone is local to Sheboygan Falls, WI, you're welcome to come look at it.

Thanks!

Here are some pics of it

Bob,

That's a sweet old machine, wish I had room for it.

Wish I was closer. Chatter marks sounds like one or more of the blades is not set to the correct height.

How much for the jointer? Awesome old machine. Ive rebuilt a 26" Crecent bandsaw. Would be fun to restore it this one to.

I'm no guru on old woodworking gear   500 bucks sound reasonable?  I'm open to suggestions on what gear like this is worth.

 

We also have an old Mattison rip saw that the drive belt broke on.  That runs great too save for the belt.

 

Also for consideration is a big Delta shaper with a nice autofeeder on it.  If anyone is interested in that, I can take pics and get a model #

 

Thanks!

Please don't scrap it, they are great jointers!

Here's mine ... before I got the head back in it. A few years older than years but it was in a lot worse shape when I got it.

500.00 seems fair, im quite far away, Vancouver Canada. If the shipping is manageable id be interested. How much would you estimate the weight is? Also could you load a few more pictues?

Shane - Amazing job on refurbishing that old jointer. That would be the plan in the long run. do you know if you can you get a spiral cutting head for this jointer?
