Hmmmm, didn't know they had a tent sale in Bellingham -- always thought the only one was back east. Oh well, too late -- the Jet's spending it's last night in the van. Will have to save up for next year's sale, and then figure out how early to get up the morning of, in order to get to Bellingham by 6am. Eeeek, I'm not an early riser.

Well, I tried to cheat! I took the stand out of the box (or more precisely, the box off of the stand) thinking that I could at least assemble that and get a little thrill. Surprise! No assembly until after the jointer is mounted. Oh, darn!
I think I might make a mobile base. Wonder how tall it should be to have the jointer at working height? I generally like my tools a little higher than most people my height (which is several inches short of your 6'4) as my back doesn't like to crouch if it can be avoided. Wish I'd thought of doing this last night, could have finished it off before tomorrow.
Oh well, gotta go get the shop tidied up for company tomorrow, and try to get to bed before my usual midnight or later. Yawn! Have a good one!forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)
LOL, yep you opened the wrong box first.. Not much to do with the stand but set it on the floor, motor and all. But wait,,, did you plug it in and turn it on... Just long enough to hear all that wonderful humming...Hummmmmmmmmmmm.. THat was mine, I just turned it on for ya. Hey, I'll send you an mpg file of the running jointer. LOL.....
See ya and enjoy your company..... Hope he has a good back....

Too funny, sounds for a woodworker to snooze by! Speaking of snoozing, what am I doing here instead of zzzzz-land? Really do have to hit the hay.forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)
