With wood prices being as they are, I purchased this tool to mostly correct pallet wood. I needed something cheap, easy to repair, and with cutting tools the can be repaired/replaced easily and cheap. I was not expecting much from it, just clean up the wood to finish it on my much more expensive tooling( Jansen cutting head is a $783 rebuild this is $40 ). I have found this tool to be amazing! It’s a single blade that doesn’t gouge the heck out of wood, sniping is very minimal. This is a good jointer/ planer.
