Overview

A jointer flattens one face of a board and squares an edge to it, the first step in milling rough lumber. Its long, narrow bed shines along a wall, often next to the planer, with clear space at both ends.

Sizing & placement

It is a long 55 inches wide, 20 inches deep, and 34 inches tall. Boards travel along its length, so leave open floor at both ends about as long as your typical stock, and room in front to stand and push.

Where it works

Garages and woodworking shops; milling lumber for furniture and cabinets.
