Good Monarch 10EE faceplate for sale, D1-3 mount. If it weren't for the two drilled holes I'd say it was never used. $250 plus shipping, or make me an offer.

Does anyone have a Covel catalog showing this machine? I'm curious to know what was mounted on the left hand side...
It's hard to get around the fact that half of a shaper or planer's motion is wasted. Various attempts have been made to make planers cut in both directions since the 1800s, but none were all that successful. According to a buddy of mine, Gray was trying to develop a machine that would do that...
