I was going to buy one of these things, but i bought an 8" Jet helical head.
ОтветитьI like you Tee shirt, also your content.
ОтветитьWhat in the hell is a TUBATEN?
ОтветитьBought one for the Labor Day sale . Love your honesty!
ОтветитьHas you experienced this problem ?. I think it may be a design flaw. Once you get the jointer co-planner etc and everything is perfect you then proceed to lower the infeed table and problems start. Because the internal adjustment treaded rod is on the left side, the table immediately becomes out of accuracy due to sloppiness in the treaded rod. The indeed table favours the left side in tension during lowering and raising. Hard to explain but the table doesn't not continue being parallel in the original set position.
Ответитьtoo many equiavlent cheaper options. you sponsored? WEN.
ОтветитьI have the Cutech 8" version of this jointer. Fairly new and I am impressed with output so far. One thing you might be interested in is they created fence supports or stiffeners. They make the fence rock solid and I am pretty sure you could retrofit parts to the older Wahuda jointers. Give Cutech a call as they do sell parts here in the US.
ОтветитьHi Matt, I thought your review was right on. I have the 10” version. It’s absolutely great but the fence is garbage. It’s amazing that these companies don’t market accessory upgrade options like a cast iron fence, they would make so much money! Anyone know where you could get a better fence for this jointer?
ОтветитьUnfortunately, mine arrived with dips in the middle of both in-feed & out feed tables. Neither are flat.
ОтветитьI sent you a message asking if you do woodworking or just tool reviews. I think I may have asked that in a manner that was negative. I did not mean it that way. My apologies. I do like your tool reviews, let me try this again and hope I ask it correctly this time. I am wondering if you ever do woodworking techniques and tricks. I’ve been a good for about 25 years now and have been watching different video’s for the last couple years and have found many better techniques or ways of doing things differently. Most have been better ways. Some of them are due to better tools since I started in this industry. I’m assuming you’re a good woodworker and would I would like to see some of your secrets to being a better more efficient woodworker. I tend to be old school and things can take to long.
Again sorry for the confusion.
I'm interested in getting a jointer, so I watched your review a couple times, then went looking for what might be available in our area. Looks like there are a few different names on what seems to be the same jointer. King International makes one and it happens to be on sale right now ($625, from $827) at one of the woodworking stores not far from us. Humm, now I have to find a way to sell it to my Mrs. Thanks for your review.
ОтветитьMilescraft has decent push blocks with a drop down as well.
But this unit is now on my kissmiss wish list for me wife....
I have been having problems with my 8inch Wahuda jointer. The infeed table does not stay in parallel with the outfeed table with being lowered. The left side lowers before the right side. A lot of times the knobs would get stuck on the fence, the lock knob for depth of cut for the infeed table, and I would have to use an adjustable wrench to free them up.
ОтветитьHow does the Wahuda jointer compare with the Dewalt planer in terms of its decibel level? I have been around the Dewalt and know what it sounds like, so it would be a good comparison noise-wise.
ОтветитьBought this over a year ago. With the pull out feeder and cast iron top, it was great value. I went with a carbide chips over the blade, as blades are expensive and do not have a long life. I use it all the time on mostly hard woods. For the smaller shop, it is perfect. Yes, the fence could be a little more solid, but it is square and easily adjustable. Customer support was supreme. Oh, and it came with blocks that are perfectly adequate.
ОтветитьThanks for this review, looking at getting a 10" one from Magnum industrial would like to get a shelix head for it though but can't seem to find one at the moment.
ОтветитьAny limitations/negatives from the cutterhead having only two cutters per facet, or from the cutters not being set at an angle?
ОтветитьI had a thought the other day. I see guys on here all the time building bench to hold their miter saw, these bench usually take up the whole of one side of their shop., and the have a cut out for the mitersaw that levels the bed of the saw to the bench. This way they work safely with lo ger boards. My question is, why not incorporate the jointer in the bench the same way, also allowing you to jointing boards safely without having to wrestle with it.
ОтветитьSeems all the table top jointers are too small for my application. I want to build a 6FT table. What should I be using to flatten boards?
ОтветитьDoes the Wanda jointer have a Universal (loud) or TEFC motor? Could you let us know when a power tool has a relatively quiet TEFC motor. Thank you.
ОтветитьMade the purchase today, based on this video. 731 seems to shoot straight. Free shipping today and tomorrow from Wahuda. God bless. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
ОтветитьSorry but it is not a helical cutter head. True helical cutter head blades strike the wood at a slight angle. There are "spiral-like" at best but still better than two or three full-length blades.
ОтветитьI set mine to the height of my outfeed table for my saw so i can support it. No problems. Its nice
ОтветитьI've had the Wahuda 10" jointer since it came out. I agree about the fence being too flexible, but if you are careful with it, it will maintain 90 degrees during the cut. Otherwise, one of the best built machines I've ever had, even compared to Powermatic. $700 then for a 10" wide spiral cutter head jointer. What a bargain! Even though there are fewer cutters than a Shelix, you can push as slow as you like and get a beautiful smooth cut. And you can joint longer boards with in & outfeed supports beyond the machine's extensions.
Also, great dust extraction for me with 4" hose on my dust collection system.
I'm curious if this is the same as the Wen or Rikon. It looks pretty much exactly the same
ОтветитьThe jointer is good so far. I DO NOT LIKE the fact that I have to calibrate/adjust the outfeed table. For a tool such as this, I shouldn't have to calibrate anything
ОтветитьThat fence is garbage. No way would I trust a jointer with a fence that has that much flex to it.
ОтветитьI bought this one partially based on your initial comments and it still works great for me. It was a pain to get dialed in initially but has worked great sense. It does definitely get clogged up when using a shop vac. I also use the same push blocks and they are great.
ОтветитьFWIW, Wahuda has a 10" version for only another $150, could be worth it for those considering buying it. Better to have too much than too little.
Also -- Wahuda now has a 13" planer using spiral cutterheads, too, with a similar pricing scheme -- a bit more pricey than the cheapest planers, but, once you replace with spiral cutterheads, it's cheaper.
BAD BOY!! Not supposed to lift it by the infeed and outfeed tables!! 😁🙃😁
The control the accuracy of the table's jointing, so... Don't Do That!!
I have the 6" version and would say my experience is on par with yours. Had it for more than a year, with a few thousand feet run thru it. It has chewed through gnarly mulberry, elm & ash firewood (to debark for the lathe when the table & band saw both went out of commission 2 days apart) along with locust & hickory lumber (among several species of other softer hardwoods) and this thing has never flinched!
Now if they could get their fence quality to match their cutter head force! Even putting supports on the far ends of the fence instead of one center mount would likely help a ton.
If you're watching this & end up purchasing this please note when making a cart/stand & using a shop vac....as he mentioned shop vacs do a decent, but less than perfect job at chip extraction. I would strongly advise having the stand/cart open/hallow underneath (not permanently mounted on a flat surface) to allow chips to fall thru! And I wouldn't try running it without any sort of dust/chip extraction ever again, unlike some other benchtop makes you'll have a complete chip jam in no time. Thinking you can be lazy saving 60 seconds not attaching the shop vac will cost a few minutes fishing out jammed chips.
I watched this on amazon and think I will be pulling the trigger!
ОтветитьIt looks just like the grizzley G0947, only cost $175 more...
ОтветитьI'm actually surprised you haven't created a video showing how to either use store-bought roller stands or custom-built stands to provide support for longer jointer jobs to go along with the Wahuda jointer. If you keep it on your workbench while using it, a short stand with a PVC pipe roller made to the height of the discharge side of the jointer would be a great tool to have for longer boards while an adjustable roller stand on the infeed side of the jointer would let you handle long pieces and be put away when not needed.
ОтветитьThanks for the great video as always! I've learned so much from your channel! God bless!!
ОтветитьI don't have a jointer but just started looking for one. I'm sure also that in not the only one that could result use this but man could I use this. Matt and Mrs. I have been a subscriber for a couple seeks now but have watched at least 30 videos and have even ordered plans! His kick on the giveaway to everyone!
ОтветитьI'm blind I watched twice and didn't see the code words lol.
ОтветитьLooks nice
ОтветитьHow do I enter the Wahuda jointer give away?
ОтветитьI've used one and they work well but the fence is its biggest let down and will not stay square.
ОтветитьMan, I wished I stayed in the USA and could join your give-away comp. I love your channel. Jesus Rules!
ОтветитьThanks for the review. I am a beginner and have been fixing to get a jointer and have looked at Jet, Craftsman and Porter Cable due to the price point. I like Wahuda but it was out of my budget. But I just checked (23 Jul '22) and the Wahuda jointers r on sale on their website! So if y'all don't win here, you at least get the knowledge that it is a solid product and go buy it on sale!
ОтветитьGreat video! Been looking for a good jointer for my tubatens. I have some pushblocks, but I like the feature on those you have. Will look for those too!
ОтветитьI've watched the video 3 times and still can't figure out how to enter for the drawing
ОтветитьThat is actually a segmented cutterhead, not a spiral
ОтветитьI have the Cutech version. They sell it under many brands.....Grizzley, Rikon, etc.
ОтветитьAhh, the elusive shop jointer, so many choices of such varied integrity out there. My table saw can only do so much sketchy jointing. Tubafors and pushblocks are the only way to get the job done... Now I will need a bigger shop.
Great video!
