As you may remember, I am trying to decide whether to buy a combo Jointer/Planer or separately upgrade my 6" jointer and 13" planer. With all the advice/comments I got on the original thread, I'm still on the fence as to which way to go.
Then, along comes this deal. It's a 3 year old Delta 8" Jointer (DJ-20) that is in awesome shape and only 15 minutes from my house. It appears to have had very little use (he said only 3 times). It does have standard knives, which I was trying to get away from, but Byrd does make a head for $450 that I can upgrade later.
Anyway, the guy is closing his shop and selling everything (including the $4 million in buildings). He wants $800 for the jointer.
Sooo...kinda back to the original question: Combo or Separates, only in this case the jointer would be this 8" Delta and the planer still the 15" Grizzly.
Thanks.
Be well,
Doc
