Oliver 399 18″ Planer
July 17, 2008 – 11:55 amI was lucky and blessed enough to be given this planer by a nice guy in Santa Maria, CA. Due to some problems with my engine hoist we had a tough time getting it into the bed of my truck but then it was smooth sailing. The machine is in excellent condition minus the parts missing. Below is a list of what I need to complete this machine. If you or anyone you know has these parts please let me know!
Parts Wanted:
- Table elevation assembly (screws, handwheel, chain, gears, etc)
- Cutterhead Gibs
- Cutterhead Knives
- ‘Oliver’ Cast-Iron Name Plate
The machine was dissasembled to a certain point when I got it. Here it is all put back together and waiting to be freshened up.
