24" planer and 24" jointer rebuild

All that thing needs is a catapult, an elevator, a superstructure, and
5000 men and you could be projecting power around the Globe. :-)

Must be a lot more difficult to move around when it has a nice paint job to protect.
Just don't drop it or use it as a battering ram and all is good.

Looking good. Do you always use Hermance heads? How do they compare to the Byrds? I've got a Oliver 166CD for $150 recently that I'm trying to put back into service.

I've got a few RC planes that could easily take off and land in that space  [big grin]

95% of the time. The service is fantastic, the machining is beautiful, I prefer the pocketed inserts, each head is chucked up only one time in the process, all heads are balanced, they have good engineers and machinists, numerous times i have had them slightly alter the OEM design as needed. I have no hesitation or concern sending heads to them. They have a pretty decent library of heads now as well.

Yes, they are a bit more money, but I can see what that extra goes to.

Hermance has been in the woodworking machinery for well over 100 years.  They are only 45 minutes from where I live in central PA.  They also have a Rockler store and sell Festool.  I bought my original rails from them to use with the recon Makita track saw I bought to see what the fuss about rails and track saws was about.  I bought a lot of my Festools from them over the years.  They sell new and used industrial equipment as well as refurbishing older machines.
