Smooth, Clean, and Protective
Wood Magazine, Volume 153, 2003-12

by Berkeleywoodboy

With great test results, this tool has definitely been one of the better planers made. When the chamfering cuts were tested, it came out with great results. The reversible carbide blades allow for easily replaceable blades, which can also be substituted with standard-size carbide or high-speed steel blades. The tool is also very clean, where chips can be ejected to the left or right into a vacuum hose or dust bag. One more great feature is the "park shoe" which allows for the tool to be set safely down onto the bench while winding down from use.

5 out of 5 Smooth Cuts, No Negatives (2008-04-28)

The reviewer did not mention any low points with this model. This model of planer leaves smooth cuts in both hardwood and softwood. At the full 3/32" cutting depth, pine 2x stock has no notable bogging and good cut quality. 45-degree chamfers produced no problems, whether using the built-in grooves in the front shoe, or using the fence angled at 45 degrees. The included reversible carbide blades are easy to change. The chip ejector is intriguing in that it can eject chips in a stream in any of several directions. The park shoe on the bottom allows the planer to be set down without marring the surface on which the planer is sitting.

I'm a boat builder and had the precurser to this planer when I started my schooner many years ago. It went through thousands of feet of oak and mahogany bevel cuts and was a pleasure to use. My... (More)

1 out of 5 Nothing Lines Up! (2008-05-31)

The front and rear shoes are not on the same plane and the blades do not line up with either of them. If set at zero, the planer would remove material...but only on one side! I'm glad I read these... (More)
