Would you pay $200 for this jointer (assuming it's flat, runs well, etc). Seems like a little more than a benchtop jointer with an open leg stand. I don't know how old it is but can't find a comparable delta currently. I can find some jet open stand jointers, but jet tools seem to be overpriced. I can get a closed stand Grizz brand new in the $400-500 range.
I have a worn out central machinery jointer someone gave me a few years ago, but the fence is warped, won't lock down straight, and it only attaches on the infeed end, there's no support on the outfeed table and the fence moves- I don't feel safe using it.
I wasn't really in the market, but a friend told me about this, it's his dad's old jointer. barely used supposedly. I don't use the jointer much, so I'm not interested in a super duper 10-12" deal. I don't have room for one of those either.
