Well, I'm finally making some new purchases to my shop. Going to get a Grizzly G0490X 8" Jointer and a G0453Z 15" planer! I am SO excited to get a jointer and a planer. I've been trying to transition my business away from refinishing work and into custom building. I already to a ton of furniture repair, but we are starting to build more now, and these two pieces will really round off the shop. Did I mention how excited I am?
Anyway, Grizzly has free shipping on these, but they are both on backorder. They expect the Jointers in the end of this month, and the Planer to come in at the end of April. I was going to go ahead and place my order tonight to get in the queue. It's $3500.00 but I read that many times in certain magazines you can find a Grizzly 10% off coupon which would be a life saver.
Any of you fine folks happen to have run across one of these which you don't intend to use?
Also, if for some reason I'm making a horrible mistake buying these, please make an argument I generally check in here before any purchases.
Thanks again!
