There should be no vibration so to speak, noise from the exhaust port will
be considerable and especially when you turn on the dust collector. *The
noise seems to bre greater than the sum of the two units.


My dust collection noise-makers are outside, so that helps. So, I
suppose there will be no more vibration than with the 8" jointer.
That's good to hear, also.

I haven't fired-up the planer, yet, as I'm still assembling it. Some
of the China-made bolts and nuts have stripped and I'll have to find
some replacements, re-tap and/or -die, then finish assembly. The self
tapping screws, for the dust port attachment, have stripped, also.
Beyond that, I'm not impressed with the infeed-outfeed table adjusting/
leveling, either. Some kind of fine-tuning adjuster, similar to a
turn buckle mechanism, should be on this size machine. I can make do,
though.
