...could I get about 2 dozen of you people to help me get it into my basement? I didn't know there was a 24" jointer.

24 inch jointer, Frank J. Clements with 3 phase converter. The jointer is in good shape ad works well. it is used semi-regularly and was used 20 yrs. ago to aid in the creating of 17 Armored Carousel Horses for the Euro Disneyland Carousel in Paris, France. Selling because of down sizing.

I like the part where he says it was used for crating the armored horses. I imagine there is enough cast iron there to CREATE 17 armored horses.

Doesn't David Marks have one similar in size to that one? I thought I saw it on a WoodWhisperer Youtube video.

Actually, he does say it was used to create the horses...

I'd say with a 24" jointer, downsizing is about the only thing you could do... I bet that weighs more than my pickup...

If I were to buy this.....

If you were to buy this.....first, contact a machinery moving company and let them give you price for moving and installing the jointer....you would be a lot better off and cheaper in the long run. They have all the right equipment
and they can do it with no problems.

II think you'd need a dozen friends just to hold the log onto the deck of that super carrier.

How much beer you got???

[cabinetman]

Big jointers (long beds) are great if you have the room for the in and out lengths. Not easy to move around.

IINM the one Marks has is "only" a 16". Still a whopper compared to what most of us have, though.

It only looks like 23" from that picture...

I can't lift much but I could tend bar. I have a 3" X 8" X 69" walnut plank with some wind that we can use to test it with. I think it will be a bit much for my 6 1/8" Cman bench top. As to the beer you will be serving for this endeavor, what brands do you plan on having on hand?

So you are saying that a Herc-U-Lift won't work on this?
Darn....I guess I can't get it then!
