I bought this jointer about a year ago as I was building a kitchen table. It has been great! It is very heavy which helps eliminate any vibration. I also bought the mobile base that goes with it – necessary for a small shop like mine. I have run alot of hard maple and red & white oak through the jointer with no problems at all. It is very powerful and does not bog down whith the largest beams run through it. The extra long beds are awesome! They make jointing long boards so much easier than some of the short bed jointers out there. The dust collection works great too. All in all there is no better 6” jointer on the market in my opinion.

Looks like a very nice jointer I see them at my local woodcraft if I was going to get a 6” that would be a top choice. Years ago I had a 6” jet and hated the warped castings sold it bought and got a 6” Delta bench top model and have nothing but good to say about that little guy but I now have a room for a 8” but the cost of a Powermatic and the fact woodturning is my main gig, thinking a 8” or 10” Grizley w/spiral
Thanks for the review
