Review: A Great Tool - This is a great biscuit joiner. I had to replace my old one of a different brand and read the reviews about the Makita and the Dewalt and couldn’t decide between the two. So I ordered both of them and first opened the Dewalt and was very disappointed in the finish of the tool. The fence did not move smoothly, and there were many sharp edges that needed to be deburred which I did while inspecting the tool. One very important requirement for this tool is that the blade is parallel to the bottom of the tool and the fence so I put the tool on a flat surface and inspected the squareness of the tool. The blade was out of alignment by about a degree and a half and I was not able to ever correct it. This is enough to make assembly difficult. As a result of this, I didn’t even plug the tool in and returned it. The Makita on the other hand was very nicely made, and everything fit and moved perfectly. It’s easy to adjust and one of the best features is the ease in clearing out chips when they get stuck in the exhaust port, which will happen on all biscuit jointers. The Makita has a single screw that does not require tools to open up the base and clear out the chips. The Dewalt required a screwdriver and removing four screws to clear out the dust port. My only complaint about the tool is the location of the switch which is not compatible with left-handed operation. I have dealt with this issue my whole life with switches on power tools being set up for a right handed person. I would definitely buy this tool again, but judging from its quality, I may never have to.
Review: She's a beauty! Great way to join 2 pieces of wood! Beats Kreg Jig! - Best Biscuit Joiner! If you need to glue two big pieces of lumber together this is the tool to use! Stronger than nails, prettier than screws! Bought this and the Kreg HD Jig to have two alternatives for putting 2x4's together for a work bench I'm building. Feedback for Makita: Love that it is Japanese Engineered and USA assembled. The attention to detail is good, but here is where you can improve... The two plastic levers are replaceable, but should be metal! The depth guage with 6 settings is IMPOSSIBLE to read. Raised small lettering on chrome is no good! Use the debossed red line method for the dial too. Use color coding for biscuit sizing - I ended up using finger nail polish dots to coordinate with my 3 air tight jars of biscuits. The S, D and Max are meaningless. D looks like the 0! Put a depth chart next to the dial. 0-8mm, 10-10mm, 20-12.3mm, S-13mm, D-14.7mm, Max-20mm. Design the wrench to fit inside the handle instead of the tool case. Tool case too small. Forces cord to bend and the most vulnerable place. I suspect this is where a lot of cords will eventually break. Like that the dust port is replaceable but look at using larger standard PVC elbow joints to improve dust collection (sawdust is cancer causing in California P65). Sawdust bag can't be on tool when putting into the case. Means users without dust collectors will likely skip using the case :( PLEASE include some sample 0,10,20 biscuits in a sealed bag with desiccant. Also include a sample wood glue tube. You should be able to get free samples from manufacturers. Like the spare blade storage! Case has a plastic fence (set plate) that you use for cutting biscuits in thin pieces of wood. Any chance you can spell out min and max sizes you can join? Design the manual so I can easily pull out the other language sections I don't want and toss. Design the manual so it fits in the storage section of the case (trim a couple inches either side).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the voltage used ? 120 V or 220 V or both ? Thanks!**
A: It uses 120 V. There's no switch to change it to 220 V as far as I can tell.

**Q: can I use any brand of biscuit or it has to be Maketa biscuit??**
A: Yes, you may use any brand of biscuits. Numbers 0,10 and 20 are standard biscuits sizes used by woodworkers.

**Q: Does anyone have a good solution for connecting a shop vac to the undersized and restricted dust port?**
A: Rockler has some small adapters that work well

**Q: What is the OD of the dust port? I want to use a 1" Lamello vac hose instead of the bag.**
A: Inside diameter for the bag adapter is 1" / Outside diameter is 1-3/16". I measured them with calipers

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as it should.
*by W***. on March 29, 2024*

Does every thing a plate joiner should and well built Makita quality . This replaced an older porter cable plate joiner that just got worn out over the years (15+). I just couldn’t justify the Festool domino system which is super cool stuff but not $1500 + cool. Festool is for the pro who can afford it and justify the cost by production needs. I’m a semi pro DIY GUY so I use the plate joiner a lot and the cost is around $200 and I’ve not had any joints fail yet so it’s way more cost effective for me. Either way they both have their place. If I wad rich and just wanted the best and cost wasn’t a consideration Festool is a no brainer.
