The job is 500 bf of random width Jatoba.....some of it around 14" wide and most of it stayed at 17' except for five boards that were cut down to yield better.
first off I was playing with my drum sander with this stuff and the motor went on that.
I jointed the lot and was on my second pass of thicknessing and the Hammer 16" jointer planer spat some metal at me
It must have vibrated loose.....nothing on my end of the machine made me suspect anything.
Anywhoo..
The edge of the cutter head has a couple of dings on it and the holder is well stuffed
Is the repair to replace the bent bits.....or should I be more concerned???
