Hi All,

I currently have a Delta X5 6" jointer which I'm really happy with, but I find the 6" width limitation frustrating. I'm thinking that the Delta 8" Professional Jointer (37-380) might be a good way to go, without breaking the bank. I've seen it advertised for ~ $1000, and I can get the local tool guy to beat any price I find.

My first questions is - does anyone know whether this machine will run on a 15 amp circuit? I could not find anything in the spec on amperage. I know that it can run on a 120V line. I am currently limited to 120V 15amps.

My other question - how do other vendors' machines stack up against Delta, as far as quality & performance.

John
