Grizzly G0945 6-Inch Benchtop Jointer

A first jointer for someone who wants to square up small stock without giving a floor machine any space. It bolts to a bench, weighs 44 pounds, and does fine on short boards. If you already know you'll be flattening long hardwood, you'll outgrow it quickly.

WEN JT3062 6-Inch 2-Blade Benchtop Jointer

The cheapest way into jointing that still does real work. It's a straight-knife benchtop with a 30-inch bed, and it's the machine people buy to find out whether they'll use one. Expect to spend an afternoon tuning it before it earns its keep.
