You may want to consider looking for an Inca 550, 560, or 570 as well. They’re also combination jointer/planer machines that are extremely well made and accurate. I’ve got a 550 in my garage now and use it primarlly as a jointer since I have a Makita 1012 planer. Another advantage of the Inca is that you get a 10” jointer. Look for later models with the Tersa cutting head because it makes blade changes cheaper and easier. Good luck.

I am in the process of installing a clearview cyclone with a 3 hp blower and permanent ducting. It is replacing two of the two stage dust collectors that sit on a 55 gallon barrel. One has been pretty much permanently connected to my Unisaw. The other was connected to my Makita 2030 jointer/planer. I don’t really want to box and ship these so if you are in the Sacramento, CA area give me a call and make an offer.

I have some carbide blades for the jointer part
of the older 2030s. I had one at one point that
I sold and I know the blades are around here
somewhere.

I think they list for about $160 for the set… so
make me an offer if you need these.
