Tools and Hardware Reviews of DELTA JT160 Shopmaster 10 Amp 6-Inch Benchtop Jointer
Customer Review: So far so good...
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this as a closeout for only $100.00 so I cannot complain about anything. It is the perfect size for my small shop. The set up was fairly easy except for squaring the fence which took a little while. The table was pretty good right out of the box. I've used it to face and edge joint some smaller stock to make drawers and and small table top and it worked great. I kept the setting at about 1/32" and that was fine. I probably wouldn't go more than 1/8" even on soft pine. The dust/chip collection isn't all that great. I keep it on the edge of my bench with a trashcan positioned to capture the chips. My jointer was missing the push blocks out of the box; I contacted customer service and new blocks were sent out immediately. My biggest complaint would be the fence as it is only passable. Another reviewer mentioned making a new fence from MDF and I think that it's a great idea only I would veneer melamine or hardboard to the MDF.
I think this jointer will work fine for anybody jointing smaller stock (roughly 4ft or so and shorter) and if you keep your removal depth on the light side(which I think is good advice for any planer/jointer) It's a great size for a smaller shop. Even if I had paid full price I would feel satisfied with my purchase.
Description of DELTA JT160 Shopmaster 10 Amp 6-Inch Benchtop Jointer
The DELTA JT160 Shopmaster 10 Amp 6-Inch Benchtop Jointer uses a variable speed motor and two-knife cutterhead configuration with jack-screw knife leveling arrangement for easy replacement and adjustments. The 30 x 6-3/16 inch table provides support for surfacing stock up to six inches wide, including soft woods, hard woods, and plastics. The speedy 10 Amp motor spins at 6,000-11,000 RPM, which makes the dual-cutter turn at 12,000-22,000 CPM. The center-mounted fence provides ample support throughout the cut for precise edge jointing, and it tilts out at 45 degrees for added versatility.All Delta Tools
