In case the listing disappears, it is a Steel City 40200H. I paid the asking price, didn't even haggle. It was missing the manual and the box, but has not been used. I've been prowling craigslist listings for a while, some of you answered my questions about about a 15" 220 volt Powermatic, but I'm not wired for 220, and honestly my shop is half of a two car garage so space is a premium, a lunchbox planer fits better.
I had been hemming and hawing on a Rigid R4330 for a while, and then I saw this and jumped at it.
Never thought I'd have a gloat.

Bending the rules a little, and letting the CL photo stand in for your own, in your shop, photo;

I might be able to to get a picture in the back of my car. I have to finish my workbench, and build a stand for this bad boy now. I'm too embarrassed to photograph my shop at this stage.

Awesome deal! I ponied up full price for the same planer and really like it (also fits my needs with 1/2 of a 2 car garage). Don't worry about not having a manual - my new unopened one in the box never had one.

Just in case you didn't realize it, the manual is available online from Steel City.

since you were considering the 4330, this was a good choice. it's the same planer as the ridgid tp1300, but with a helical head. all the controls are in the same place and the manuals are identical, except for the parts that deal with the cutter head. ya done good!
