W1879 6" Benchtop Jointer with 2-Knife Cutterhead

A reliable benchtop jointer for hobbyists, with a 2-year warranty.

Are you a beginning woodworker wanting to up your skills? You need a jointer to help you create custom stock dimensions and precision workpieces.

This compact, 6" jointer fits on the smallest of workbenches, and gives you the ability to take your craft to the next level.

It features a sturdy one-piece steel stand, knob-adjustable cut depth with SAE and metric scale for easy, precise adjustments, and a safety switch with removable key to prevent unwanted use.

The fence tilts 0–45°, allowing you to make perfectly straight bevelled edges—try doing that without a jointer. And the 2-1/2" dust port on the side allows you to connect to a shop vacuum or dust collector to keep your shop space (garage) clean.

All this with the SHOP FOX® 2-Year Warranty so you can purchase with confidence.
