Hey all, new to the forum as I'm just building up my shop for the first time. I've been lurking on CraigsList for an 8"+ jointer and found this one that's a mystery. The first thing I will do is replace the straight blades with a Byrd Shelix, so knowing what I'm getting myself into before I buy will be important. Anyone know what this is from the photos? If so, Any idea if the bearing blocks unbolt from the top rather than having the take everything apart? The other risk on this aside from the obvious is that there isn't 240V at the storage place so I won't be able to hear it run. I know - far from ideal, but these are hard to come by around here. Thanks in advance!
