Finally bought a combo

[Steven Wilson]

I had been looking at european combination machines for a while and thought I would wait until I ended up with a dedicated shop. Since it will probably be quite sometime until I find a house with a detached shop I decided to pull the trigger and order a combo. I decided on a Minimax CU350 (14" jointer/planer) with an 8' slider, tilting shaper, and a bunch of options. It should be here when winters over. Now to clean up and sell the Powermatic 60 and 66 sometime this winter.

SWEET!! An 8’ slider, a 14" Jointer / planner and a tilting shaper? – Be still my heart!

Awesome machine, Steve! You're going to love it--I know I'm pleased with my recent MiniMax purchase. (FS-350 J/P which is essentially integral to your new machine) The company is great, too. :p
