Looking for a Planer
I was thinking of getting a Dewalt DW735x or a Makita 2012NB.
Anyone have opinions comparing the 2 one way or the other or where I might be able find them at better prices than Amazon ($599 and $699 respectively)?

Re: Looking for a Planer
+1 on the DeWalt...and consider and upgrade to a Byrd cutter head. It's a great machine.

Re: Looking for a Planer
If you want one at a lower price, I could sell you my used Ridgid. That way I could upgrade to a shelix version

Re: Looking for a Planer
Maybe check this one out from Grizzly. Made in Taiwan, not China.

Re: Looking for a Planer
By the time you upgrade to a helical head, you can just about buy a real stationary planer that will last the rest of your life.

Re: Looking for a Planer
I have a delta with a bad cutter head. you could get a shelix head and I'll give you the delta. not sure how much aggravation is involved to do the change out. I've been holding on to this for parts but it's been 3 years and haven't needed any parts. It's got to go!
fred p If it ain't broke you aint trying hard enough
