Pretty exciting couple of weeks in the shop! We ‘rescued’ a Delta DJ-20 jointer (made in 1988) from an old building where it was sitting gathering rust. Stripped it down to every individual part to clean it. A lot of WD40, mineral spirits, cleaning, and polishing later we have a beautiful 8” jointer. Installed a Byrd Tool Corp Shelix cutter head from Grizzly Industrial, Inc.. Amazing cut, much quieter, and super smooth finish. Can’t wait to run some lumber through it for a project!
…..Now to install a Shelix head in our DeWalt DW735 planer….
