Finally stepped up to a bigger jointer
#19
Several years ago I was offered a Yates American 12" jointer just like yours for a great price. I lusted after that machine for months; but, alas, I could never fit that monster in my tiny basement shop. Your's is a beauty. I know you will enjoy it.

BTW, I eventually bought a Hammer 12" jointer planer combo. You're going to love the 12" jointing capacity.

Good for you, Greg!

Is that going to fit into the back of the garage?

I saw this over on OWWM. Super cool. I'm hoping to get a 12-16" in the next year or so, too!

A very American concept........ the only American guard that an European joiner would dare to use

That seems like a very good machine!

Indeed, it is a Surty guard

It's better to burn out than it is to rust

This thing is much larger in real life than in the picture
