Default 2hp on 20 amp circuit

Appreciate everyone's comments. My attached garage/shop has only one
110V 20A circuit for all the outlets/lights and the breaker box is in
the house's basement about 90 feet away, so I think my re-wiring
options are limited and costly.

Anybody know if there's any good 1.5HP 8" jointers available? Is it
worth considering replacing the Yorkcraft 8" jointer 2.0HP motor with a
1.5HP?



It might be worth considering if you actually find that the jointer has a
problem with the 2 hp motor.
