Woodworking Jointer

A woodworking jointer, also known as a jointer or surface planer, is a machine used in woodworking to create a flat, smooth surface on a piece of lumber. It is typically used to straighten and square the edges of boards before joining them together.

The jointer consists of a flat table and a rotating cutter head with multiple cutting knives. The board is fed across the table, and the cutter head removes a small amount of material from the surface, resulting in a straight and even edge.

Woodworking jointers are commonly used in furniture making, cabinetry, and other woodworking projects where precise and smooth surfaces are required. They are an essential tool for achieving accurate and professional-looking results in woodworking.
