A jointer is a woodworking machine used to flatten and smooth the edges of boards. It consists of a rotating cutter head with knives that remove material from the board as it passes through. Jointers are essential for creating accurate and consistent joints between boards, and they can also be used to create decorative edges.
Jointers are available in a variety of sizes and configurations. Benchtop jointers are small and portable, making them ideal for small workshops or hobbyists. Floor-standing jointers are larger and more powerful, and they can handle larger boards. Jointers can also be equipped with a variety of features, such as automatic feed systems, variable speed control, and dust collection systems.
