Headed out to go look at one posted near me on CL. Comes with a brand new extra blade. Will post more if I buy it.

Got it for $360. Missing one sharpening wheel and a couple of the rubber feet, but it runs nice and quiet. Will post a few pics when I get home.MMBGE / Large BGE / XL BGE (Craigslist Find) / SF30x80 cabinet trailer - "Ol' Mortimer" / Outdoor kitchen in progress.

This thing is a monster, didn't realize how heavy it is. Going to have to build a kitchen cart to wheel it out when needed, way too heavy to carry around.MMBGE / Large BGE / XL BGE (Craigslist Find) / SF30x80 cabinet trailer - "Ol' Mortimer" / Outdoor kitchen in progress.

Nice score. Do yourself a favor and buy some food grade spray silicone to lube if with. Look on cabelas site for some.

Nice slicer! I'm in the process of restoring an old 1930's Globe slicer myself. Looking forward to seeing some future posts from you using the slicer!"The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

Nice score!
Not sure if you has a slicer previously and ever made your own lunch meat, but if not, remember to chill it to cool (I do 24 hours) prior to slicing, unless you are going right to a warm sammy.
Time to get the wide section of the bottom round, pork loin, or if you want to go all the way, a boneless rib roast. Season really really heavy, then go low and slow with them. Skip the sear step - you get nothing with it when slicing thin.
If you like lamb, do not be afraid of a boneless leg and slice it up. Yummy!!
Have fun!!

Nice score! Maybe rather than to build a cart consider this one.

@Rzeancak
Additionally, the automatic feature doesn't work. Any common fixes I should look for?MMBGE / Large BGE / XL BGE (Craigslist Find) / SF30x80 cabinet trailer - "Ol' Mortimer" / Outdoor kitchen in progress.

Sounds like any lube will do. Just make sure it's latex friendly if necessary.

I bought an old used Hobart a few years back and rebuilt it. EBay was my friend when looking for parts. I was able to find every part I needed. Some came from aftermarket suppliers. Good luck with your project. After you get it finished will be very hard to wear out.
