    Default What is a Durden P600 like?

    Chaps,

    I am currently in the market for a thicknesser or jointer.

    I already have a 12" ryobi, which has been ok but is hard on blades and struggles a bit on hardwoods.

    so my questions are;

    Does anyone have a Durden P600 and what are they like?

    Should I buy a biger thicknesser or a jointer ( what do you consider better) ?


    Thanks

    Pappy

    I have a 6" Durden jointer, not sure of the model number, I will look this afternoon.

    I have been happy with mine, it is the only jointer I have ever owned, and I think probably the only one I have ever used. So cant compare to others.
    My tables are flat and paralell, It was 3ph when I got it , I put a single ph 1.5hp motor on it, so it has plently of grunt.

    The only thing I dont like about it, is it took the end off one of my finger.
    But I was to blame there.
