The Dewalt Planer is around 18" tall, 22" wide and about 15" deep. It's too good of a tool to get rid of at "bargain" prices. The unit I have is better built and stronger than the new ones. The new ones cost $599. Mine being used will go for pawn shop prices or lower. I'll dig it out later today and get a couple of pics.

The lathe is an old "Home Craft" Heavy duty cast Iron and 36". Knives are a brand new set of 8, Crown by Sheffield. I do have the tool rests but do not have the mounts for them. They would have to be fabricated or cabbaged from another lathe.

Compressor is a Sanborn by Coleman. Belt drive, 20 gallon tank, 5hp max, not sure about max psi but gauge goes up to 220. Has regulator on board with gauge. I usually kept it at 120 psi. I would have 4 Carpenters at once connected to it.

How much are you asking for the lathe? I'm more in the market for a mini lathe to polish duck calls on, but you know if the price is right...
