    My AD951 finally arrived

    I was a bit hesitant about Felder's JP Combo, most of my gear are Italian and I am quite happy with them.

    however when I sold my Robland recently, SCM has no JP combo in the entire Oceania, Felder has 2 x AD951. I cant tell my customer to go away because I dont have a JP combo, so I decided to go with Felder.

    This Felder is a my first Austrian machine, will give it a chance (I think I have more than 10 countries in my workshop)

    Silent Power (5 inch diameter cutter head, quite impressive! my Robland was half of it)
    7.5HP Upgrade
    digi drive.
    Euro guard.

    Price is $15k USD all inclusive. (2 years ago it was $14k)

    Just took delivery of the Hammer A341 16" jointer/planer machine. The little brother of your fine instrument. When I first fired up the machine, I had to listen carefully to make sure it was running. That Silent Power insert head is the bee's knees. And cuts a sweet surface.
