4” Jointer ID

[GreyOwl]

When we got this Mark V several years ago, one of the accessories was this jointer which we haven’t identified just who made it. Maybe someone here can help?

It’s hard to believe that almost a thousand views and not any idea of who made it:)

What does the plate on the blade guard say?

Charles,

It looks like Larry has solved the mystery.

Yesterday you said,

It’s hard to believe that almost a thousand views and not any idea of who made it:)

Understand not all of the views were from actual people. Bots, as I understand they are called, search the internet and they rack up a lot of the hits you see. That being said, I looked at your post when you originally posted it but had no idea what company made the Jointer. I didn't post then since I had no useful information to give.

As for the Jointer itself, it looks like someone set it up very well to work on the Mark V.

The plate is just the standard warning info, nothing else.
It does seem to work very well and quite a bit of home engineering to get it to line up with the power head.
Larry: thanks for the info link. I will check it out. It’s weird that there are no tags on the unit especially for the depth of cut. They must have been adhesive labels originally.

This may be the manual or one close to it, I don’t see a year listed.

Thanks, that looks like the correct one to me.
