Went from my beloved little Powermatic 6" Jointer to this...

takes a little more space, hope I like it as well as I did my PM Model 054 6". Waiting on the electrician so I can fire her up!

Awesome, you must have a big big shop.

Wayne,

You will enjoy the extra width and you got a good'un. Did you get the other half of the dynamic duo?????? Followed your posts on WN so I know what you gave up to get it. Enjoy it in good health and make something nice for the little lady in your life.:gar-Bi

Yeah, that is in another post. Ended up not needing extra cash anyway. Too late though, I had alwready sold some of my handtool goodies. Everything I sold was duplicates, etc. but some will be replaced, like the LN Bronze!

Wayne I first saw the PLaner thread and now this!! I am speechless

An almost new set of 8" Powermatic knives are in it now, with a spare set of new Powermatic knives . ....and a Byrd shelix on the way! It has a 2hp motor. Still waiting on the electrical work for the planer and the jointer. Had never done my shop wiring yet. Gonna set the shop up separate on it's own box and a bunch of 220! Can't wait to try these out soon! Dust collection is the next situation I have to contend with!

Time to order one of these ....

Go to this site! I'm installing my this month (even though I bought it last Fall! Long story...). Several other members here have one, including Purple Thumb, Trog777, Dino Drosas and Jim Murphy to name a few.

Congrats!!!

I guess I need to post a few more gloats just to stay in the game don't I?;-)

You are definitely going to need dust collection, and once you do the dust collection, you better get you some ear muffs!
