Jointer's getting a new coat of gray paint. - Wild Turkey - 01-03-2016
Bought an 8" Rockwell Delta jointer last year and just now am getting around to finishing getting all the paint off it -- in addition to the factory gray it had layers of light green, dark green, light blue and off-white latex all over it. Wish I had taken a good pix before I started
Must have been in a school shop to get that much paint over the years
Even had paint over the data tags so I'm not sure of the model.
Looks a lot like this one:
Gonna put a Byrd head on it.
Then I'll be out of excuses not to build somethin
Here's a close-up to show how bad it was
