OK, I had originally discounted the Jet J/P combo unit as I was interested in the spiral head option. Well, I got an e-mail today from Byrd that they will have a spiral head available for the Jet in 2 weeks.
Using a couple of coupons I have (one from Byrd and one from Tools-Plus), I can now get the Jet J/P combo and a shelix head (which I'll have to install) for $2794 delivered!!! That's only $300 more than the Grizzly.
So, I know you guys have heard about both units - which one would you go for? They are very similar in most details.
Curt Harms - any update on your Jet? Comments?
BTW, I've given up on separate jointer and planer units. A 12" jointer is just too expensive and way too heavy for a single tool.
Be well,
Doc
