I found this exact jointer on sale on Ebay for $400...It was removed from a school shop outside of Baltimore,Md a few years ago.It was in fantastic shape. well worth the $$ and the 2 hour trip to get it. they don't make machines like this any longer,which is a sad testament for todays' manufactures,regardless of where they're made. I found a manual also on Ebay, which was a photocopy of an original,but was the complete manual and parts sheet.price was about 10 bucks.

1959 by: Mike from new jersey
I have a 1959 that I'm trying to sell. I have someone interested in it, but not sure of it's value. The guy wants to know how much I want. Anyone know it's worth?

1954 rockwell jointer by: William Hurt 111
I own a 1954 rockwell jointer like the one posted by Ben Anderson in northern Cal.I want to rebuild it but I would like to get a hold of the owners manual before hand.The model# is missing from the side of the machine where it was riveted on and delta can't help me out without the model#. Is there any possibility or contacting Ben Anderson or can anyone else help me out with this?

Jointer by: Joe
Nice looking machine. I have one I haven't restored. It's serial number 215B. I called Delta and they were suprised it still works. Mine is completely intact including the labels, Delta, Milwalkie, Cresent and Rockwell. Joe.
