Although it is missing some Mark 2 specific parts (at least not shown in the pictures) it would be a great start for someone wanting to do a Mark 2 restoration. One big plus is it has the Mark 2 Retractable Casters and looks to be in pretty good condition already.

Thanks for posting this Lew. Picked up this afternoon. A few things missing, a couple of broken parts, but otherwise pretty clean
One other guy had called about it. And of course it was John Dalton, who graciously didn't ask the guy to hold it for him.

Just glad it found a good home! I was interested, but have plenty of projects in the queue already…

Not working might be something simple. If it were closer, I would need to check it out.

It appears to be a Mark Mounted Planer made in March of 1984 and at some point, put on a stand. It would be helpful to know what is not working for anyone interested in buying it. Could be the feed motor, cutter head motor or something else. At $100 still could be a good buy.

If the new owner is lucky the only problem is it's not mounted on a Mark :D

Greenie for sale in Northern Jersey for $150: https://newjersey.craigslist.org/tls/d/ ... 91975.html

Ad calls it a 'table saw from the 1960s'. If the first digit of the serial number is a '2' then it was made in 1954 or 1955.
