Thanks. It all start to make sense now. I just realized the jointer head has additional set screws that are probably to hold it to the ER quill. I'll try tonight : ))

Now I also see why the strange shape it has that as you say would fit in the table insert.

Confessions of a new addict.

Well, finally the 10ER bug bit me hard and I started with this "bargain". This one was followed by a $200 one with speed changer, jigsaw and lots of accessories that I will describe and ask for advice later. Tomorrow, if all works well, I'll pick the third one but I will have to make some ...
