Bases Every jointer needs a stand or base. Enclosed bases make dust collection an easier chore. Most enclosed bases come with 4-inch dust collection connectors. It dust collection is not set up for 6-inch closed base jointers, and the connector is installed, Ihe chips and dust will quickly feed back and come out around the knives as the machine operates. I first discovered this on the Kidgid. and for a moment though l it was brand specific. It isn't. Every other 6-inch jointer that was tested with the connector in place and no dust collection did the same thing. It is a nuisance. Open bases may make dust collection harder, but do not suffer the feedback problems. Open-based machines are also usually a little cheaper.

Rabbeting ledges would all |K*el off well over 1/4" at a lime, smoothly finished and with no drain on the motor. As with all finishing cut operations of (his kind, shallower cuts produced best results. Cuts of 1/16" depth always finished more smoothly than did cuts of 1/4" depth.
