Anyone have experience with Baileigh WWing machines

[Craig Behnke]

I recently saw their website, their 5-in-1 combo machine looks like a clone or is based off of a Euro style combo machine (looks similar to hammer, robland, rojek, minimax) and their jointer/planer looks very similar to a Jet or Rikon J/P.

Anyone know exactly where those two machines are made? The website lists about 7-8 countries where their products are made, but I want to know about their combination and their jointer planer. Anyone with any direct experience using their products? I know a product can look similar but be worlds different in fit, finish, materials, quality, etc. so I'm curious to hear user feedback about their machines.

I called the company yesterday to get some more info. I'll follow up if I hear back from them.

Shane, where are your jointer/planers and stand alone planers manufactured? I'm interested in the j/p combo or upgrading my planer. Anywhere on the east coast that they can be seen and demoed? Thanks.

Shane, mostly interested in the JP-1686 16" jointer/planer. Possibly the IP-156 or IP-208
