I own the Jet 12 inch combo machine. I am completely satisfied! I had a Makita lunchbox for years and a powermatic 6" joiner. The Jet equals or exceeds the capicties of those units. It is durable,...

I agree David!!
I am surprised that no one has noticed the parallel to the August 2007 issue about glue tests. FWW even went to the same place! This is recycling the same stuff year to year. I...
Like Steve Clardy recommended. I swear by it for just this purpose. Learned it the hard way 30 years ago.
Don:
The Jet unites the infeed and outfeed tables so that they pivot up together. The Grizzly's pivot separately. Further the point about which the Grizzly'e pivot is held in place by a prong that...
It is short, has a 1 1/2 hp motor, a small foot print and uses a 4" hose. I have used one for years. It is no bigger than a shop vac (except when the bag inflates.):D
I am selling mine down here...
I have seen both machines in action. I would pick the Jet for multiple design reasons.
1) The infeed and outfeed tables on the Grizzly pivot up separately. As a result they do NOT remain parallel...
Thanks Frank. I am faxing mine in. Do I have to identify the group on the fax form?

I bought a PM2000 this year and made sure to get the low profile riving knife (an extra). I have had no problems with it. As far as the stock fence system goes... I have never used it. I have a full...
My PM2000 has the Incra set up. The table top is bigger and required a longer fence. I contacted Incra directly for the upgrade as it was cheaper from them then from Woodpecker. $59 verses $99. The...
I owned an old 5 HP three phase PM66. I sold it about 5 years ago. It was a beast and could take a beating and come back for more! I didn't have 3 phase power at the time and putting it in was...
My employer has acquired a company in Allentown. I will be flying up there regularly, e.g. every other month or so. I noticed there are a lot of WWers in PA on-line here. I would enjoy meeting some...

Here are a couple of more shots.

I have owned a PM66 (5 hp 3phase unit with a BIes fence), a Jet hybrid and now a PM2000. Of the three I prefer the PM2000. Quality has been great. I like the rivinf knife, the internal dust shroud,...
Mark:
I have the PM2000. I bought it about a monthand a half ago. I have the Incra LSTS rail system attached. I had this system on my old jet saw. When I transfered it to the PM2000 I had to get a...
I have the Incra TSLS system. I love it! The service has been the best I have ever experienced. I recently upgraded to a PM2000 and the table is 30.5 inched deep. Perry at Incra sold me the...
Sue:
I bought a PM2000 earlier this month. So far I am pleased as can be. I am waiting on their low-profile riving knife. This is separate from the one that comes with the saw (Which I am using)....
I appreciate all points of view. I am about to upgrade, and frankly it was the chance to play with a Sawstop that got my mind working on this. I like the technology behind the Sawstop. I could argue...
This is great! I notice that you have carefully created quite a few jigs for use throughout the project. About how many in all and how long did it take to create them?
I understand your...
I coated my 12 x 22 garage shop floor with this product. With the issues you list on your present floor, preparation is crucial. You will have to completely clean the floor and patch it where...
I work for a German-based company. According to one of my coworkers, "Stolperfallen" is a trap or ambush. Does that help at all. May be the ad is a stolperfallen.

How high is your ceiling. I have almost completed my shop in the same footprint. My ceiling is 11.5' tall I have taken advantage of that. Everything but my bench is MOBILE. As I am in Germany now, I...
Matt:
I just moved from NVa to NC. I highly recommend insulating your garage door if you haven't already. It is relatively inexpensive and will help regulat the heat in your shop.
Doug
That was it!

There is a hinged clamp rack on page 14 of issue 186 of FWW. I swear I saw the same thing on the world wide web. Does anyone no where it might be?
Doug
Does anyone know if there is an electrical subpanel that locks so that power to the shop is prevented without a key? I remeber hearing about something like this. I want something like this for peace...
