Adjustments work well and they hold in place securely with no play. Very happy with this product. Well built and very well designed. It cuts smooth and quick.
I am not disappointed. The chip bag needs to be aimed down to the floor and plan on emptying it after 7 cuts using.20 setting otherwise the collection area behind the fence jams up with shavings and is difficult to clear.
Very happy with this purchase and the packaging is of course Amazon quality.great. I've only used the unit with pine wood so far.
This unit seems very safe as I have used it. I hold the unit by the barrel to plunge and hold the top left corner down with my finger (right handed) to assure level cut into the face of the joint edge.
As a first time biscuit joiner I studied the Amazon reviews and decided on this one. I've only done edge joining but I'm totally happy with my project thus far, I would purchase this item again if necessary.
I don't feel like there's much chance I could get injured from this tool.
Ipe is one of the densest woods available and just kills regular blades. I was doing a project with Ipe (aka Ironwood). The motor didn't break a sweat and carbide cutters were begging for more.If you do any woodworking at all, just buy one. I chose this model based on the Amazon reviews and previous experience with a makita random orbital palm sander. The other reviews do a great job listing the details, pros and cons.I had never used a plate joiner before but was up and running in 3 minutes. I plowed through the project quickly.
I bought a 14.4V cordless Makita and was so happy using it that I bougth the MBJ very dissapointed. I am disappointed with this Biscuit Joiner. Hope they improve on the fence. Simple to use, excellent power. Whats' with the fence. The fence is a joke.
nice and much more precise joiner than my Dewalt, however the motor is a bit noisy.
