Needs a bit of tuning up to start with.

I am in london,the aldi biscuit jointer is not on sale at the moment but they have it on sale about twice a year.

Another point about the Clarke mentioned above: As said, it does need fine tuning but once set is dead solid. All metal construction.
I got one years ago when they won a "best on test" in one of the mags.
Used mainly on oak, its been perfect.

I got the ferm fbj 710 which i actually won for £7 off e bay but i think there only £50 new and its a solid little machine.

Have you looked at the Macallister from B & Q £29.98 or less if you reserve and collect via topcashback or quidco. Shelf price is still £49.98 but corrected at till.
