Strength required to convert a Hammer A3-31 Planer/Jointer???
Hi all,
I am looking at getting a combo Jointer/Planer and have it pretty much narrowed down to the offerings from Mini-Max and the Hammer. The one thing that I am unsure of is the difficulty of raising the one-piece jointer table on the Hammer (the Mini-Max is a two piece). I'm a fairly petite 5-3 and I was wondering if anyone has experience with someone my size doing this conversion. This is a home/hobby shop, so it isn't critical that the changeover is fast, but it needs to be at least possible :)
Thanks in advance,
Elle
