    I had this planer for one month and a sprocket broke on the planer while doing routine tasks on hard maple. I do metal fabrication in addition to professional woodworking and it was clear that the sprocket had an improper heat treat. After 2 months of dealing with the notoriously bad Laguna customer service, my shop is down because my brand new planer is in pieces waiting for a part. Mind you it is a part that is in the planer in 3-4 places so its not like its a rare entity for this machine. Save your money and go with Powermatic or another vendor

    I've never seen anyone use a jointer with a push stick before...... Also shouldn't you place more pressure on the outfeed table?

    You mentioned that it was a spiral cutterhead, but you didn't say if it was a QuadTec or ShearTec cutterhead... huge price difference and apparently in cut quality as well.

    I dunno... For the price of the Laguna 8" jointer and the 16" thicknesser you could just about buy an SCM combo 16" capacity jointing and thicknessing. Thickness 3-230mm and get Italian made in the process...
