Or at least one corner of it:) . Just brought home a new Powermatic 60B 8" jointer to replace my Jet 6". The Jet is a nice tool but it can't compare with the heft and stability of the PM not too mention the extra inches of cutterhead and longer tables. Really, really sweet. Even got a great deal from my local scratch and dent, $825. I'm now really, really happy.

Congrats Steve!! I am envious. I have the powermatic 6" and would love to have the extra two inches. Especially at that price. Nice work and let us know how it works.

Some of us, while fairly modern in the woodworking area are still technologically challenged in the photo department. Trust me, it's there in the shop still looking as shiny as the last time I walked out to look at it.

So, where goes the Jet????
Um, if you live close I could be persuaded to ....... take it off your hands.

After seeing some pics - of course.

Wanna trade for a PM 54 and a digital camera? That way you can still have some gold in your shop AND satisfy the picture police:cool:
