I have a small basement shop. I would like a jointer and plainer but no room for them. The other day I visited the Wood Craft store and they have a combination eight inch jointer and plainer. It is a bench top unit standing 16 inches tall and I think 33 inches long. I want to talk to a neighbor who does a little welding and has access to a lot of square tubing. I am thinking about having a frame that will hold the unit a little below the top. then Place a work surface on the top to replace one of the work tables that I use. I would mount rubber wheels and a locking system similar to my shop fox table saw support. When I want to use the tool raise it and lock it in place at the top for the jointer and a little higher for the plainer. I would also then have a small storage underneath. The tool is $329. The welding and parts would be a little more than two cases of beer. I want to first talk to him about the idea then try and convince Karen. All that she said when she saw it was, and where do you think you could put it? --- Please visit my home page; it is motivational, inspirational and humorous with many resources for the blind. http://www.geocities.com/lenny_mchugh/ Lenny
