Hello,
I recently just received my new G0858 jointer from Grizzly a few weeks ago. This is the 8" helical head with parallelogram.
It works great and I am very happy with the jointer.
However when both face and edge jointing wood, I am getting a significant amount of snipe (if you would call it that). See attached pictures.
This is happening on the trailing end of the wood. When it gets to the last 1-2" I can both feel and hear the jointer taking more material away causing my shown problem.
I assumed it was probably my technique. Maybe putting to much pressure on the tail end of the piece of wood. So I limited that and even only put my two push blocks on the front 50% of the board. Still having the same issue. I tried both face and edge jointing wood for over an hour trying different techniques and different areas of pressure.
Any ideas?
I did not have this issue with my previous 6" straight edge jointer.
Thanks for the help!
