Know the Joy of Jointers
~ by David Wall
There's an elemental pleasure to be derived from using a jointer. You start with a ragged-edged piece of wood. You turn it on its side and run it over the jointer's spinning knives. The stock that comes out the other side has a smooth, straight, planed edge. The jointer is the first step in transforming rough pieces into finished products. |

This 6-inch woodworking jointer from Jet features a three-knife cutterhead that allows rapid cutting and a superior finish. The 46" cast-iron bed has a precision-machined finish ensuring accuracy, and a 2-way tilting fence with 45° and 90° positive stops with conveniently mounted center fence controls that allow for quick adjustment.
Other features include easy-to-use hand wheels that fully adjust the infeed and outfeed table height, a built-in rabbeting ledge, 6-1/16" x 1/2" cutting capacity, and 1/2" rabbeting capacity. Your jointer purchase includes front and rear safety knife guards, 3 high speed steel knives, 4" dust chute, industrial motor controls, one-piece welded stand, and jack screw cutterhead. |
| Like many shop tools, jointers come in bench and floor varieties. Bench jointers are relatively small units that are meant to be bolted to a stand or a tabletop. The larger floor jointers are mounted on a heavy base that sits directly on the floor of your shop. |

- Easy to adjust infeed table for fast set up

| A jointer's infeed and outfeed tables should match the size of the work you plan to do. While it's important that your workpiece be well supported at all points in the jointing process, don't shun a particular model because its tables seem short. It's pretty easy to build table extensions yourself. |
