Hi All,
I have been looking at buying a thicknesser for a while and being a hobby woodworker could not justify the cost of a makita or dewalt.
Came to the conclusion that Charnwood, SIP and Jet were basically the same machine so I have decided to buy the Jet 318mm model bacause it was 10kg lighter than the SIP and has a dust extraction hood unlike the Charnwood.
Oh and also it seemed a good deal on Ebay for £140 (New unused model returned back) compared to the Axminster price of £209.
Any views on the Jet would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Harry
