This is a homeowner/ hobbiest grade tool. I used it to plane down some rough cut 9/4 x 8" white oak to finish the headboard, and although I had to take it slow (cuts <1/16" probably closer to 1/32"-3/64") and it took several passes, I was impressed that the stock went right through, and came out as good or better than my buddy's 13" Pro DeWalt.ġ. I bought it for my very small garage shop, and my current project is a replica of the Oseberg Viking bed, made out of white oak. I also use an electric driveway blower regularly to keep unit clean while in use.īy Kevin on 04\07\2011 So Far Very Pleasedīought this a few weeks ago, and I have been so far, very impressed with it. I added locking casters and a minor reinforcement to the lower legs, and it stable enough to roll out for use in the driveway.Īlso, dust and chips result in rougher cuts, so use dust collection or a shop vac, even outside. Some plastic knobs and levers are already broken, but easily replaced with rather standard hardware. This reduces the changeover bother, and ensures uniform thickness as well. I use several light cuts rather that one deep pass.Ĭhange from jointing to planing is a pain, so do as many boards as possible before switching. ![]() When planing, no ripple effect like I see from some expensive planers. I am getting straight jointed edges, and rather little snipe compared to others I have used. Due to fence flex and light construction, I check alignment before any critical project. Email to Jet got additional instruction that should have been in manual. Oversized, ergonomic knobs provide ease of use and maximum controlīy TerryT on 02\02\2012 Makes a jointer/planer affordable.Planing and joining tables lock to ensure precision cutting.Sheet metal out feed table with height adjustment supports long work pieces and helps reduce snipe.Large aluminum extruded fence makes joining stable and precise.Precision ground table top ensures a smooth, straight cut.Two high speed steel knives for precise, smooth cuts.Heavy Duty 13 Amp motor for various cutting applications.Integrated cord wrap makes transporting easy and ensures workshop safety. ![]()
