ryandetzel Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 Powermatic #60B, asking $1500 but could probably throw $1100-1200 and get it. Worth it? http://worcester.craigslist.org/for/2663411725.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knotscott Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 Considering that a new one costs ~ $2k, it doesn't look like a great deal to me. AFAIK, the PM60B is made in Taiwan....nice jointer, but still an Asian import. You can get a new Grizzly (with warranty) for < $900, and can get one with a helical cutter for less than this used PM60B....food for thought.

dwacker Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 60 b is a fine jointer imported or not. The pm quality is still higher than the griz no matter the origin. The resale value is also a consideration. There many differences between pm and griz. They don't just paint them that ugly mustard color and double the price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
