Identify this SS item

Post by scollins »

Spotted an SS with an accessory that I can't identify, but has several things that I would like to have. Already have one up for sale from my last hopefully free upgrade to my keeper. Trying to decide if I want to pop on this one for more upgrades.

To what is the saw blade attached?

I can go with Henele on the Grinder set up for Q#1

I had assumed quickly and at an early hour that Item #2 would be the grinder set up so if not, then shaper guard?

Nice clear pics would be a plus!

I think you are seeing the saw blade arbor resting in the well for the Grinding Wheel Guard where it connects to the quill on the headstock... ;) I don't see anything unknown/unusual in the picture.

The guard is upside down and facing away from the camera so you are seeing the back side... Also the writing on the box says "Grinding Wheel Guard Accessories".

Is it an optical allusion, or does that jointer look extra wide?

No, only half as long.

That looks like the left side of a jointer, not the whole thing.

I would guess a brand X 6" jointer.

I agree - that does not look like a SS jointer to me
'78 Mark V 500 #27995 (my Dad bought new)
'82 Mark V 500 #96309
Two '47 10E's (serial#4314+6149) - one a dedicated drill press and the other a lathe
Two 10E/ER in parts slowly being restored…#26822 and #????? (SS plate missing)

I think it's a total shop jointer.
