The other day I came across an ad on Craigslist for a Laguna 6" jointer. I had been thinking about picking up a 6" jointer, so I checked it out. It turns out it was being sold by Laguna, and it was their their prototype for their current 6" jointer with a helical cutterhead (this: http://www.lagunatools.com/jointers/jointer-platinum6_3 ). This thing cuts like a dream. I ran some birdseye with crazy grain and it had no tearout whatsoever. Even though it was only $350, it could turn out to be a really expensive jointer, because now I'm going to have to get a planer with a helical cutterhead . . . |

Some of the most expensive words in the English language are "I got a good deal..."! Followed by "Free" and "While you're at it...". Good find! |

The list of 'enough tools' is never-ending. |

I am currently wrestling with "while you're at it." Great find. Is this exactly like the production model? will you be able to get parts that fit correctly? |

Bryan, it is not quite like the production model, but the parts from the current model will fit it for the most part. It was a good score. |

I would say that if new cutters and any parts that are likely to wear out will be available, then i am jealous! |
