We have partnered with Cutech Tool LLC to give away a Model 40160H-CT bench top jointer with the new new spiral cutterhead .

To enter, simply respond to this thread with your answer to the following question.

Do you currently own a bench type jointer or would you like to own one in the future. Why? Why not?

On October 19, 2015 we will do a random drawing to select a winner.

With its newly redesigned spiral type cutterhead featuring 12 2-sided inserts you get a great finish and tear out is reduced due to better chip evacuation through its included 2 ½” dust port. The one piece 4 3/8” high by 19 5/8” adjustable fence can be tilted from 90 to 135 degrees with ease. The cast infeed and outfeed tables can easily be leveled if the need occurs and the cutterhead guard spring tension is also adjustable. It has a 6” width capacity and 1/8” maximum depth capacity and sports 30” of total table length for those longer boards. At about 40 lbs, and with a 120 VOLT 10 AMP motor, it’s tough and easy to transport the job site if necessary. Push blocks and the tools necessary for rotating or replacing the cutter tips are included! Model 40160H-CT

All right, I'm in!

I don't have a benchtop unit, I have a floor standing 6 inch model. I am always looking for space saving options, and if this jointer is as good as Mike says, I would like to see if it can compare to my current one. It would be much easier to store the smaller unit, and the spiral cutterhead appeals to the tool junkie in me.

Lately my projects have been 'smaller', so the shorter table lengths may no longer be that big of an issue. More than willing to give it a shot!

I do not currently have a benchtop model jointer, but had one before buying a long-bed. But...like most other large tools, the long-bed has to be wheeled into position to work so unless i've got a big project going i work around it. I would either use this for small runs, or more likely "loan" it to a local guy that gives away about 1,000 toys each year. I normally process a lot of stock for him, but he still does a lot with sand paper so he doesn't have to "bother" me. This would be perfect for what Jack does, and would support his mission.

No, I do not currently have a benchtop jointer. I would like one because the jointer that I do have is only a 4" model.

I have had a Delta 37-070 bench top for some 5 years. It has always been loud, loud, loud, but in the last year there is a 0.05" bow in the center of everything. I've gone through the adjustments without full success. This isn't horrible for items going to the planer, but not good for edge gluing stuff like cutting boards.

Bench top is all that will fit in my garage shop and is fine for what I make.

Enter me!

I don't have a jointer because my shop size is limited and they were always too big and took up a lot of room. The idea of a bench top jointer is appealing and perfect for the projects I do.

I currently have have a 25 yr old (approx) Ryobi 6" bench top jointer. It has served me fine (not a ton of use) but is extremely loud and would like to replace with another bench top unit, as my shop is a quite small 13' square area in the basement. Thanks for the opportunity!

I don't have a jointer yet and think a bench type would help my situation as I've maxed out my line of credit after listening to you guys on the forum , and now there's no room for a full size one with all the other crap in the way :)

>:)I have been using this jointer all day! Really nice. My son came in my shop and could care less about woodworking
and said, "man that is a cool little machine, it's so quiet compared to all of your other machines". I have not maxed
out yet, slowly getting the boys off of my payroll!

I already own a combined planer jointer in my major shop. It isn't heated though and I've got a smaller shop in my basement that due to space limits is primarily benchtop tools. This little jointer would fit nicely there, and the spiral blade + lower noise output has me intrigued. When the weather turns cold I much prefer to work indoors so this little jointer would make a nice addition there. I also test and recommend tools for the model shop and larger furniture shop I teach in, and if this little jointer can withstand a little abuse it might be perfect for our university model shop.
