This time Porter Cable played about with the design and not the electronics and mechanics in the motor. At 7.5 lbs., it’s quite heavy, but the good thing is that the vibrations are reduced. Besides, it is compatible with all the biscuit sizes you can think of thanks to the 4″ blade and the extra 2″ blade.īy design, I won’t say much, but I wish it would have been much lighter.
#MAKITA BISCUIT CUTTER PROFESSIONAL#
What makes it a top choice for professional carpenters is the fact that the fence extends up to 135° very few models in the market have this capability. It boasts a solid, lightweight design and comes with all the standard features.
This is my best biscuit joiner so far, and it actually takes the editor’s choice slot in this review today. If your work entails #0, #10 and #20 biscuits and you want something that will serve you for a long, this is what you should get. DEWALT included a reliable 6.5 Amp motor that can do 10,000RPM and works with minimal noise emission. Makita PJ7000 vs Dewalt DW682K comparison shows that the latter boasts a more powerful motor, though the RPM rate is lower. Regarding dirt management, I’m glad I am able to use my PowerClean vacuum with it as it has two hose adapters one for the bag and the other for an external extractor.
#MAKITA BISCUIT CUTTER PLUS#
I realized that when you do this, the weight of the unit plus your force may tilt the blade, and you’ll lose precision.Īnother observation I made is that it doesn’t clean all the wood shavings, but when you plunge in twice, you are left with a clean groove ready for gluing. With a standard 4″ blade, you will get clean plunges and precise cutting all through as long as you don’t put downward pressure. I also liked the blade alignment markings that are easy to read and the adjustment knobs will firmly hold the unit so that you get the exact mortise sizes for the perfect key-lock fit. In addition to the 90°, the tool makes 135°. First, even though it has a 90 ° fence, it can still cut the 135° angle with a small 45° notch that has been cut out of the bottom of the fence. Its performance is also great, and that’s why it’s Amazon’s choice for the best biscuit joiner.īesides the rugged design, DEWALT also offers a few advantages over the other models. Also, its body is strong and doesn’t get scratches easily, only dirt.
workbench, and that was the start of unending trips to my technician. Last year, my Ryobi JM83K fell from my 3 ft. It has fallen down several times, and funny enough, it gets back to work, unlike others. I bought the first one when I was training to be a woodworker, that’s 10 years ago, and the performance is still top-notch, the same as the exterior. Apart from my Porter Cable, this is the only other biscuit joiner that I’ve used for the longest.
