Title: Poor accessory planning, good shaper
Product review: Very happy with the speed of delivery. Have had it in operation for 3 weeks now. Set up is a little cumbersome with having to remove the fence to change the rings and change bits. I have used it mostly with the " collet and it's power and cutting speed are fine.I dropped the 5th star because of the accessories. I ordered theJet JW1044 4-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch Reducer. While it is presented as a solution for us with a shop vac powered dust collection system it is more like a kluge. The adapter does not fit the exhaust from the shaper. It requires a short bit of 4" tubing and either duct tape or hose clamps. (I used a piece of PVC pipe just a little larger than the exhaust and reducer.) A reducer sold as a accessory for the shaper really should be made to work with that shaper.If you have 4" dust collection or don't care about dust collection this unit is ready to go out of the crate.
