Yes, it's another long time lurker who finally registered. I've been "making sawdust" as a hobby for about 8 years. Thanks to everyone for the useful information they have posted here (and Badger Pond) over the years.
Now for the planer question. I recently picked up a Jet JWP-13DX, 2HP Bench Planer at a tool liquidation sale for $240. I haven't been able to find any reviews on this model. Does anyone here have any experience with this unit? Was $240 reasonable for this?
I don't know squat about planers, so I have some reading to do before even plugging the thing in. I always figured I would get a dust collector, bandsaw, and jointer before I even considered a planer, but oh well.
