Achieve glue-ready edges and perfectly flat stock without buying oversized, cumbersome machinery. The ShopSmith 4" Jointer delivers straight, smooth, and square board edges essential for cabinetmaking, furniture assembly, and fine joinery—eliminating hours of tedious hand sanding.
Key Capabilities & Applications
Seamless Glue-Ups: Produce dead-flat, square 90° edges on boards up to 4" thick for perfect edge-to-edge panel joinery.
Flatten & Cupping Removal: Easily flatten cupped or twisted stock up to 4" wide with a few light passes.
Precision Beveling & Chamfering: Cut flawless angles for staves, decorative columns, turned bowls, and angled cabinet frames.
Rabbeting & Tongue-and-Groove Joints: Form sharp, clean edge rabbets and tongues up to 3/8" deep without tear-out.
Heavy Stock Squaring: Cleanly square thick stock that would strain a table saw, eliminating blade marks on resinous woods.
Engineered for Accuracy & Efficiency
Spring-Loaded Feather Guard: Keeps constant lateral pressure against the workpiece, holding it firmly against the fence for safe, accurate passes. Tension adjusts quickly via a single knob.
Micro-Adjustable Knife Leveling: Built-in leveling screws allow independent end-to-end adjustment for each knife, letting you re-sharpen knives in-shop without expensive professional match-grinding.
Full-Tilting Precision Fence: Features an oversized 3" x 21-3/4" fence that tilts 45° in both directions with positive auto-stops at 45° and 90°
Integrated Dust Extraction: Features a built-in 2-1/2" dust chute to hook directly into your shop vacuum or dust collector.
