You bought a jointer for $200.00 WITH NO MOTOR?? Maybe if you bought
it for $25.00 with no motor but $200.00 is no bargain!!

I went to Sears the other day and behold laying on the floor of the
clearance area was a Craftsman 6" jointer for $200. I didn't know if SWMBO
woul allow me to buy it so I put it on hold.

Low and Behold SWMBO allowed me to buy it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I got it home and unpacked it it was all there except for the stand and
the motor......

I am making a stand out of scrap 3X3 and the motor cn be acquired for about
$59.00.

$250 for a $379 jointer......
