GLOAT Look what I picked up at lunch...updated with picts!

[gdoebs]

Got a call from UPS Freight yesterday letting me know my Grizzly 12" Parallelogram Jointer was ready for pickup. I brought the trailer by at lunch to pick it up:



Time to rearrange the shop to get it to fit!

Congrats..that's a BIG jointer. Please post a review when you get a chance.

BTW, looks like you bought retail, so in innernet parlance that would be a "neener", not a gloat. ; - )

Geoff,

VERY nice score. You rock!! But... all we really know is that you picked up a large box... I think we are going to have to see photos of the beast set up AND with some sawdust on it. Please do update us with a review / rating / report on the new toy.

Will do, just as soon as I figure out how to get it off the trailer...and make room for it in the shop/garage!

Sure is, on Groometown Rd. Was Overnight Express until UPS bought them.


I got lucky on my timing when I ordered it. I got it for $1795 and free shipping. This week I checked and it's now $1895 plus $255 for shipping!

I got the jointer un-crated and unloaded from the trailer this weekend. Here are some picts:

I started to re-arrange my shop to get this in it's spot. I still have to clean it and finish the assembly but I'll do that when I get the shop back together... Anybody need a carcass for a shop cabinet?
