Why buy some made in China, pot metal jointer with a “universal” motor, that is lucky to last a year when you can own a heavy duty, Made in USA, induction motor, cast iron machine that will last a lifetime and then some… at a lower price???

I’m a former woodshop teacher, cabinet and furniture maker, and avid tool collector. I’ve been collecting antique woodworking tools and restoring old Craftsman and Delta machines for almost forty years. I love the quality of the old Delta, Craftsman, Walker Turner, and other woodworking machinery from the 1940s through the ’70s. They just don’t make tools like that anymore and no one is going to be restoring woodworking tools purchased at big box stores fifty years from now. You can see my OldWoodworkingTools.com website about hand tools.
