I tried your link, but nothing is coming up. What is it?That said, if $450 for a planer will leave you with enough money to buy wood, I'd take this ad to Lowes and tell them to take 10% off...

Most of the lunchbox ("portable") planers from the major manufacturers seem to be very good now. I doubt you could go wrong with any of them.

I completely forgot that Lowes did the match + 10%. Thanks for the reminder! I just got back from lowes with my $445 + tax dw735
Thanks again!
I brought a color printout of the item page and didn't have any hassle at all. I was in and out of the store in just a few minutes
I can't find my answer, but does the 735 have powered rollers that feed the stock thru or is it all manual?
...and...
By the way, did Lowes have the in feed and outfeed tables in stock?
Kclark,
3) An optional third-party accessory I highly recommend (for the DW735 or any other portable thickness planer) is the Wixey Digital Planer Height Readout. I have an earlier version of this Wixey model and love it. They are a bit of work to install the first time, especially if you permanently attach it to the planer (as opposed to using much less reliable double-sided tape). I mounted the Wixey's scale to my DW735 with rivets to ensure it never drifts out of alignment with respect to the bed.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
