Jointer

[Rjgooden]

My delta model jt360 jointer finally completely stopped working this morning, it went from humming and being hard to start to smoking and not starting at all. I bought it used several years ago and it is missing parts and hard to adjust well. Anyway I have decided to maybe upgrade to another six-eight inch jointer. Anyone have any thoughts on a good upgrade without being crazy expensive. I am a hobby wood worker but I use a lot of rough sawn wood, I don't have a big shop so it would need to be mobile. Thanks in advance for your opinion.

A lot of the reviews that I found on the six inch jointer said to pay a little more and get the eight inch grizzly. They said the longer bed made a big difference in the overall jointer usage. Any opinion
