It is crazy. Really i'm still kinda in shock. I kept expecting something major to be wrong with it. After spending a year and owning 3 other jointers its pretty sweet to be done with this tool...

That was my initial reaction. But now that I know they are the same HP. I'm thinking I need to get it tuned up and see which one works better. The grizzly has been a good saw for me but is an...

Hrm, I couldnt find a site or catalog for the Iturra stuff. I can try and call next week. Before I order the Ridgid part online. I'll have to wait to see it running to decide which I want to...

So I have been stalking freecycle for a while now. To date I have got some files, a 4" jointer, a ShopSmith 10e and some other random things. To find said things you have to sort through hundreds...

Hi all. Last night I made a mad dash for the 40$ 6" jointer with 1hp motor

Hoping any of you have seen one of these before?
