Poll: What size jointer do you have?

[Van Huskey]

I must say I am amazed at the number of big jointers.

Noticed that, too!

I've got jointer envy ... and I'm not blue-shifting this thread.

I assume you mean 2400 pounds, not inches, that would be one huge piece of equipment would fit resonably in the Superdome. If it does weigh a ton and change I guess it takes a "Crane" to move it....

at about 200 feet that would make a great sequoia jointer bed.

MiniMax FS30, 12" Tersa Head, soon to be Byrd

hope you post some pictures of that, I would be interested in reading more about that.

tersa head, but a byrd head would be nice.

MiniMax FS350 350mm jointer/planer combo..~13.7", give or take.

[Michael Dunn]

6" Central Machinery, I think... It doesn't even have a brand stamp on it. It looks just like all of the other CM stuff though.

It's my first jointer, I have brand new Freud knives installed. It took me a while to get the knives right. In fact, I should probably check them again. My boards look pretty good when I edge or face joint.

Not too bad for $160.

I have a 16" Moak I think from the late 30's.
Put a Shelix in it works pretty nice.
Not sure if I am man enough to go any larger.
It's pretty hard to push the large boards thru If you are doing a lot of them.
I think I saw a 20 or 24" with a feeder on it.

I have a feeder on my 16" jointer for the reasons you mention. If I'm running something like full length 6/4 oak it saves me from quite a workout. For case pieces I would rather mark the whole thing out in chalk and cut the boards down before jointing & planing. I don't think I have used the feeder in nearly a year.

6 inch jet does the job for me

[Todd Tyler]

I have an older 6" Delta and a mid 1980's 16 1/2" Invicta

Delta and Porter

[Christopher Stahl]

I have 2 as some others do. I have an 8" Grizzly G0500 and a 12" G0634 combo j/p with a spiral head. I like having both in the shop.

Just remember that men tend to exaggerate the size of their jointers. I think medically verified results would be a bit lower.

yeah, I bet most are 6".
I wonder if only those with big ones are answering, or if there is outright deceit going on.
