BUYING GUIDE
Choosing the best benchtop jointer can be pivotal in ensuring smooth and perfectly squared edges for your woodworking tasks. Whether you’re a hobbyist or a professional, a benchtop jointer can be an essential tool in your workshop. Here’s a guide to help you select the best benchtop jointer tailored to your needs:
1. Motor Power:
Look for a jointer with a powerful motor, especially if you’re planning to work with hardwoods. A good starting point would be motors with at least 1 HP for light to medium tasks.
2. Cutterhead:
There are primarily two types of cutterheads:
- Straight Knife: Traditional design, effective but may require frequent sharpening.
- Helical or Spiral: Comprises multiple small carbide inserts. They tend to be quieter, more durable, and give a smoother finish but are generally more expensive.
3. Cutting Width:
Determine the maximum width of wood you’ll be working with. Most benchtop jointers can handle boards between 6 to 8 inches wide.
4. Table Length:
A longer infeed and outfeed table can support longer boards, leading to more accurate jointing. Ensure the tables are flat and adjustable to maintain precision.
5. Fence:
Ensure the fence is rigid and easily adjustable. A good fence should tilt both 90 and 45 degrees with ease for versatility in edge jointing and bevel cuts.
6. Depth of Cut:
Consider how deep the jointer can cut in a single pass. Most benchtop jointers offer a depth of cut between 1/16 to 1/8 inch.
7. Dust Collection:
For a clean working environment, it’s crucial to have an efficient dust collection system. Check if the jointer has an integrated dust port and its compatibility with your workshop’s dust collection or shop vac.
8. Portability:
If you’ll be moving the jointer around your workshop or between sites, consider its weight and any portability features it might have, such as handles or a compact design.
9. Durability and Build Quality:
Look for a jointer constructed from quality materials like cast iron, ensuring it remains stable during operations and lasts for years.
10. Safety Features:
Check for safety features like a safety guard over the cutterhead, anti-kickback design, and easy-to-reach power switch.
11. Price and Warranty:
Balance the cost with the features you need. While high-end models offer advanced features, some mid-range jointers might fulfill your requirements without breaking the bank. Also, consider the warranty coverage, reflecting the manufacturer’s trust in the product.
In conclusion, finding the right benchtop jointer revolves around your specific woodworking needs, the materials you work with, and your budget. By understanding the key features and weighing them against your requirements, you can select a jointer that will be a valuable asset in your woodworking journey.
