Jointers w/ short beds: opinion needed

07-28-2004, 08:31 PM

I know that the old gray model ridgid jointer has 40" of total bed length. For those who have worked w/ this jointer before, have you run into lots of setup time to accommodate longer work pieces? How long before you upgraded to a jointer w/ a longer bed.

I am considering that the 40" is a bit of a limitation, but wanted to get real life feedback from you all.
