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 cord, belt, and knives. I’ve used it for a couple years and have been happy with it. It’s a three knife cutter with 66” bed, single phase and made in the USA from the 60’s or 70’s.
I recently acquired a Grizzly G0656 four knife cutter with 72” bed, made in Taiwan. I got it for a great price and it’s in great shape other than needing new knives soon. I’ve haven’t messed with this one much as far as dialing it in. I tested a board and definitely needs a little fine tuning but not bad. It has a manufacturing date of 2015.
So what do y’all think on which one I should keep and sell?
