Very Impressive Planer!!!
I received this planer on 08/13/2018 and have used it over a half dozen times already on Oak boards. I tested it on the first board and checked the thickness from side to side on each end and in various places in the middle with a set of Vernier Calipers to see how accurate the cut was.
To my surprise, the deviation anywhere on the board, Four Feet in length and 5-1/2 inches wide, the difference was NOT more than .003 anywhere I checked.
I am completely impressed with the factory calibration and the finish, well, a little finish sanding would be in order if I were making high dollar furniture, otherwise, it is good the way it comes out blades and I won't be doing much sanding at all.
At 9400 RPM and a very smooth feed, I can't be any happier with it. This planer is the best I have ever operated to date and I am a retired Master Machinist.
