I had to show off my newest acquisition. Picked up an old Rockwell 22-650 planer from a guy on Craigslist. I replaced the knives, greased it, and dialed it in. It works great! If I ever have to move it again, I'll get someone with a tractor to help. Still not sure how I managed to muscle all 400+ lbs of it into the basement by myself. I was dumb enough to try that once but not enough to do it twice.

Very nice! Out of curiosity, what sort of input power does this require? I presume it's not a three-phase appliance, but probably needs 240 VAC?

Single phase 240VAC 2HP motor.
