Having someone else do it is always a good idea, but I rather like
being able to be as self sufficient as possible. I am supporting myself
with this work, so I have the capital to invest in new hardware at
least occasionally.
I have also found that while the G0555 works well enough for most
tasks, and fails only occasionally to get the job done. I feel a more
stable heavy duty unit would be better all around.

If used has an appeal to you, there are always a bunch of experts hanging
out over at owwm.com. One of them, a member of our local club, sold me a
really sweet old longbed 8" made-in-Milwaukee Delta jointer last week.
Completely rebuilt, at about half of what the new X5 is going for.

He has a vintage Delta 20" bs in his shop, awaiting its turn. If only I
had space...
