I paid $450 for grizzly jointer and no, I’m not logging a bunch of hours. I’m a hobbyist. I do as much as time permits but I have a lot of obligations that eat up my free time, so I only use it a...

I agree with the others to use and refinish when needed. Sounds like it’s not an option though, so my vote would be to build a few cutting boards and trivets like others mentioned. Best of luck with...

Thank you all for the input. I’m definitely leaning toward my delta/rockwell. I like the longer bed of the grizzly but the heft of the delta along with made in America has my preference. I’m going to...

I need some input on which 8” jointer I should keep. I purchased the Rockwell/Delta 37-315 jointer from the original owner after seeking advice here. I replaced the power...

I dragged my feet too long and it sold. I know better but also wasn’t necessarily in the budget right now. I could’ve swung it but wifey wouldn’t have been thrilled. I know others will come along but...

I appreciate the responses. Anyone have experience or concerns with the jet unit.

I found one of these locally but have yet to see it in person, only a couple pictures. Looks clean from what I can see. Guy says he bought it used a few years back. Appears to be about 10-15 years...

I’m always looking for deals and random tools. I happened to be searching Festool on Craigslist the other day and came across a brand new domino 500 q set listed for $900, retail $1,099 + tax. I...

The Kreg KMS8000 is good from what I’ve found. As long as you don’t slam the stock against the stop block it’s right on. Good luck!

I used these and they’ve been great. They were mentioned above but he couldn’t get the link to copy in. I built my king bed over a year ago and it has held up great. I’m very much a beginner and I’ve...

I was talking with my buddy who is a contractor yesterday and he was told by multiple material suppliers that lumber is going up an additional 20% in the next couple weeks. This is absolute...

Jim, I just installed these for the first time. I followed this tutorial and it helped me understand. Good luck.

Mike, I will check with some of the local sharpening services to see if that is something they can do. I did find a couple places online that sold them. From my research and someone earlier in the...

The knives are shot. Should I go with carbide or HSS. Anyone know where to source them?

I decided against the automotive belt at your guys advice. I ended up just ordering the exact one needed on ebay. It was $25 and will be delivered by Tuesday. Thanks for the help.

So I got the power cord wired up yesterday and now I need to replace the belt. I've found the belt online using the part number but I was wondering if there would be any issues with purchasing a belt...

Thank you Andy.

Dave thanks for the info on the switch.

I went to replace the power cord last night with the roll of cord that was thrown in. When I went to strip the ends to wire it up I realized the electrical...

Well I picked it up today. It fired right up and appeared to run smoothly. Seems to be in great shape for the age expect for a belt and the power cord. The lady threw in a roll of newer cord and a...

I was able to get in touch with the seller and I'm going to pick it up tomorrow for $450. I'll post pictures after I get it home. Thank you all again.

Thanks for the replies all. I messaged the seller so I'll see what happens. I'm newer to woodworking and I'm acquiring tools as I feel I need them. I was just apprehensive due to the age. I know I...

I've been looking for a jointer for awhile now. I've missed out on a few 6" jointers but from what I've read the 8" is better to have anyway. I found an 8" Rockwell 37-315 Jointer with made in...

I believe he's referring to these.

Don't feel bad, it's on them for sending that fence in the first place and then failing to respond. As said, even in these times it would only take someone a few seconds to ask you for patience in...

I told the seller I'd take it and we're trying to setup a time to pick it up. Thanks for all the help!
