[TheForge] J. S. Wheeler metal planer

[ries]

You need to ask on the antique forum over at PracticalMachinist.com
there were a lot of machinery companies in the Northeast that came  
and went quickly, up to 100 years ago, so there are orphans that turn  
up from time to time that almost nobody knows anything about- but its  
worth asking.

I have access to a large 18" x 60"  metal planer weighing about 3000  
lbs.
Made by J. S. Wheeler & Co of  Worcester, MA. Price will be $100 or  
less. I
suspect late 19th to early 20th c.

Does anyone have any familiarity with this co (I could not find  
anything  on
line) or product. Does anyone in the Southeastern, PA area have any  
interest
in having this planer.
