I use a Yates American 36 band saw, ca 1939, a Powermatic 20” planer ca 1960, and a Ritter horizontal belt sander from the ‘60s also. I also have a German made 30’ stroke sander that appears to be from the 1950.

All of these tools are simple to set up and they retain their accuracy almost indefinitely. Other than new tires on the Yates BS, everything is original and in great used condition.
