A trade rated planer thicknesser with ground cast iron planing and thicknessing tables and an cast iron tilting fence. Being made of cast iron this is a very heavy machine and is an excellent choice for either the trade or the discerning home user. The combination of a three knife cutter block and the vibration-reducing mass of the machine results in a very clean finish to the work. The dust extraction hood is positioned underneath the table for surfacing and on top of the table, with one of the tables tilted out of the way, for thicknessing. The three knife cutter block is set using the gauge supplied, ensuring that each knife is set exactly to the block. For optimum setting both tables are fully adjustable and electrically interlocked to avoid accidental starting without the cutter guard in place. Two other features of note: 1. There are on/off switches on both ends of the machine, one for planing and one for thicknessing. 2. The cast iron fence can be positioned on either side of the table for left hand or right hand operation. http://www.axminster.co.uk

Dressing Timber. In this episode, we are having a look at dressing timber so that it is flat/straight and square, ready for a project. In this case, we are using some reclaimed Jarrah from an old deck, but the principle is the same if you are preparing timber that is DAR (dressed all round) from a timber yard, or hardware supply shop, or even if you have prepared your own board from raw timber. DAR stock can still have warps, cupping and twists, so it is definitely beneficial to go through the motions of actually dressing the timber yourself to ensure it really is straight and true (and square!). The two units used here are the Jet 6" deluxe longbed planer (jointer in the US), and then the Triton 15" Thicknesser (planer in the US).
