Looks like a sturdy piece of equipment.
I use it a lot. It takes off nice cuts. But sometimes I can see tripes on the wood. I know I can get this off using a sander, but that shouldn't happen. The feed back plate is a bit off. this means when the machine is finishing the wood will 'fall forward' and the blades cut into the last part of my project. again a good bit of sanding will correct this. however when I would like to only take a small bit off I have to be careful using this machine. It's sturdy as I mentioned, and heavy which is needed to keep the tool steady. The crank to lower and pull the plate up is sometimes hard to use.
