Etymology

The term 'jointer' originates from the woodworking trade, with its use tracing back to the 17th century. The word 'joint' comes from the Old French 'joindre', meaning 'to join'. The evolution of woodworking tools led to the specialization of the jointer as a distinct tool in the workshop environment. Historically, the jointer was manually operated, with craftsmen using hand planes to achieve flat surfaces. With the advent of industrial woodworking, powered jointers emerged, allowing for greater efficiency and precision. The jointer has become an essential machine in modern woodworking, aiding in the production of high-quality furniture and cabinetry.
