Just a little more opinion....I also don't have any personal interests in this discussion...I don't hold stock in Festool or anyother tool maker to any significant level (unless its in a mutual fund...
Festools are better tools...I don't think there is much to be argued about with that statement...but Festools are not marketed to be "worth" the difference in price over competing tools...Festools...
That is as good a 6" jointer as any that has been made....period....it is in every respect a 3/4 replica of the DJ20...Delta stopped making it a number of years ago...and replaced it with less well...
I know you have a PM2000....so it is what I told you, there are no "pads" or in effect attached shimes on the inside of your outer blades...undoubtedly, the "pads" or shimes I am refering to are...
Its not normal...but it sounds like as you added various chipper cutters that you continued to get uniform results that were 1/64" narrow so we know that the chippers are ok and you do not have a...
Burt....I've used a tablesaw jig to cut the pins (jig was from an article in Fine Woodworking by Jeff Miller a couple of years ago) and then use the bandsaw for the tail board with chisel work to...
I just replaced some rotten brick mold with the PVC stuff from Menards...have not painted it yet, so can't comment about that aspect...price was a little over $1 more per 8 foot length...machines...
When I made a king size mission style bed with nearly 200 M&T joints, I used a PM 719A (the model before the tilting table). Piece of cake. Thats a tool. IMHO, I don't think I could have done it with...
Mike...if you are seeing similar saws at half the price, you should buy one of those.
Its not woodworking, but if you're open to day trips and the time of year is right, I'd suggest a whale watching voyage out of Gloucester which is to the north of Boston...that is unforgetable for...
The North Bennett Street School and The New Yankee Workshop (if you can find it).

Brian...I don't know that much about metal working but I know its best not to get metal shavings anywhere in your woodworking shop...nothing good will come of this so I'm careful to clean up as I go...
Dwain....my Unisaw is of this vintage...I bought it new about 1985 and have had zero problems with it...and I genuinely enjoy using it and have no intention of replacing it with another saw...no...
Doug...I have a Delta DJ-15 which is the baby brother of the DJ-20 and is a 6" jointer with a relatively long bed of about 56". I bought it maybe 16 - 18 years ago mostly because that was the jointer...
Matt....you ever listen to what the young hotshots think is music??...its pathetic...I feel sorry for them...they've actually been mis-socialized to the point that they think a real good tool has...
Matt...that's it alright!....looked it up, that's a Delta 34-080 10" miter box....if you can, see if your local tool people have a drive belt part # 34-083 that you can get because Delta is not...
Matt...that old Delta 10" that you have...is it the one that weighs about 60 lbs and was built with feet to fit on 2x material?...that thing is a beast and is accurate....I have one also and use it...
In Michigan, I've seen SYP used primarily in roof trusses to form the top board of the truss...and yes it is very hard compared to other construction grade lumber...and as was stated, construction...
Congradulations Dan...you have undergone a rite of passage by building your own woodworkers bench...it will be a source of pride and inspiration everytime you use it.
