Considered the Felder 5 in one combination machine a few years back as my shop space has long been outgrown; impressive machine but the saw arbor is 30mm and it doesn’t take a dado set I opted instead for a Saw Stop which twice since has saved my fingers.
Felder/Hammer does make a 12”-16” helical jointer-planer combo that I’m in the market for.

I like smaller, one operation machinery...table saw, bandsaw, jointer, planer, etc., etc.... plus, that price is not in my budget... but it does seem reasonable... certainly keep me in mind for other equipment you might come across, especially if it is of a somewhat unusual nature... again, thanks...joe... p.s. what did the machine sell for? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
