Used Shopsmith Pro Planer.  This is the unit with the 2hp motor for the three blade cutterhead, the separate variable speed feed motor, and the cast iron table all mounted to a steel stand.

Runs fine.  Blades are severely dull and probably in need of replacement.  They might still be sharpenable, but I can't be sure.  Table has surface rust from sitting in my garage. 

I tried it out on a 2x6 and it planed it down, but you really can't use it the way it is.  Needs a thorough cleanup and better knives.  This came in a package of other SS stuff I bought and I already have a ProPlaner so don't need two.

New, these are $1774 and worth every penny.  Replacement knives are $109 and are resharpenable.  Parts are still available from SS thru their website.

Asking $200

Location:  O'Fallon, IL (62269), near St. Louis, MO.  These are freakishly heavy and awkward, so shipping isn't a reasonable thing to do.  And I really want you to see it before you hand over cash so you're not surprised by anything.
 
I forgot to add pictures.  Sorry for the clutter and dust...







I also forgot this unit has the optional casters on the stand.
