Two-in-One Design to Maximize Space
The JJP-8BT's space-saving design doesn't skimp on efficiency. In fact, because it combines a benchtop jointer and a planer in one unit, you get a two-in-one machine to maximize work space. For added peace of mind, the planing and jointing tables lock to ensure precision.

Powerful Motor for Robust Performance
Powered by a heavy-duty 13 Amp motor that produces 18,000 cuts per minute, the JJP-8BT offers consistent, robust performance job after job. It also features a feed speed of 19.5 feet per minute, so you can complete more cuts in less time.

Sheet Metal Outfeed Table and Steel Knives for Versatility and Precision
Versatile enough to handle a range of material sizes, the JJP-8BT includes a sheet metal outfeed table with height adjustment that supports even long work pieces. Its clever design also reduces snipe for consistent results. And two high-speed, durable steel knives help ensure precise, smooth cuts.

Stable and Accurate Jointing and Planing
While you work, the strong aluminum extruded fence can be angled up to 45 degrees, making jointing more stable and accurate. Additionally, the planer includes a scale and pointer that indicate the distance between the planer table and cutter head. Finally, an integrated cord wrap makes for easy portability and prevents accidents or errors caused by dangling plugs and wires.

Oversized Ergonomic Knobs
For safe, secure operation, the JJP-8BT gives you easy access to the controls you need while working. In fact, the oversized, ergonomic knobs are extremely user friendly, helping you avoid errors caused by a slippery grip and preventing you from wasting time hunting for hard-to-see buttons or switches. Instead, these easy-to-see, stable knobs provide you with maximum control at every stage in your job.

The JJP-8BT is backed by a three-year warranty.

About JET: A History of Sharing New, Feature-Rich Products
Opened in 1958 after the founder of the company, Leslie P. Sussman, took the first Boeing Jet Airplane trip from Seattle, Washington to Japan, JET began as a small dealer that sold air hoists and trolleys out of a single hardware store in Seattle. Over the years, JET has carried everything from snowmobiles, transmitter radios, and forklifts to nylon stockings, but by the early 1970s, metalworking had become the base of their business line. And by the 1980s, JET had expanded into the realm of woodworking. Today, you'll find that JET offers a wide range of popular woodworking tools that are backed with best-in-class features and excellent service.

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Jet JJP-8BT 8-Inch Bench Top Jointer/Planer

Customer Review: Awesome little machine
Summary: 5 Stars

This little gem provides just the right tool to get the job done. Set up was easy, less then an hr. I take pallets apart and then plane/joint the wood. I have ran mass amounts of oak through this thing and as long as you take off just a little bit at a time it works great with no snipe or marks. It basically eliminates sanding, just awesome. It is loud, the front plastic housing was cracked upon arrival but doesn't do anything to the performance. Be sure you have some dust collection system ready, the Jet planer/jointer puts out some serious saw dust. The price is right at $336 for having both functions, I could not do what I do with out it. Great tool!!!!!!!

Update 2/11/10

Just reading over the reviews and I must say i still love my machine never had any issues like others are describing. Now its even cheaper then before...again 2 thumbs up 5 stars great machine!!!
