Dewalt Dw735 13 In Two

Both planers use three blades and have multiple speed settings. The 735s also use 13inch blades instead of the 12.5 offered by 734 which gives you an advantage when handling a larger piece of timber. DeWalt 734,735 and 735Xare the three main benchtop planers from DeWalt.

DEWALT makes lots of great tools and I seldom find issues with any of them. In this situation they have an AMAZING tool with the DW735 Thickness Planer. In fact, I would say it’s one of the best overall performing tools that I’ve ever reviewed. I also have the DW7350 – Mobile Thickness Planer Stand. The stand is also built from high quality materials and rivals any of the mobile stands I own. In fact, if you’re going to put this on a stand I recommend you buy the DEWALT version compared to an after-market version.

You two can go far with an old Stanley #4 smooth plane. (My “new” one was purchased by my grandfather in the 1930s. My older one was made in 1909.) Ernie Conover and Chris Swartz are my two favorite plane gurus. But, I’m away from home for at least a few more days, so I can’t do much just now. You mention having an old Delta planer, but also mention having talked to the Woodcraft person.

In addition, the electrical cord gets in the way no matter what I tried. I do not keep my power on to my tools, which means that every time I wanted to use the planar, I had to recalibrate the Planar Digital. This only happens on the Wixey when the batteries die about once every 6 months. Lastly, although calibrating the Planar Digital is not difficult, it is a pain.

We decided that the DeWalt DW inch, 2-speed planer would fill the gap between our smaller underpowered planer and a large industrial planer. Having a consistent thickness allows you to create level tabletops, joinery, and all-around better projects. Keep reading to understand the features to look for in a quality benchtop planer and learn why the following models made our list of picks. Three Knife, Two Speed Thickness Planer is powered by a 15 Amp motor to easily managing large cuts in wider materials. A couple of years ago I bought a new planer and limited my choices to “portable” ones just because of space issues.

I have had those trip like an overloaded circuit breaker before. The only problem I experienced with this planer is when I was using it outside in the cold. I found the roller didn’t do a very good job about pulling the wood through. Not that it was a big deal, but it is something to note.

We were able to hook our shop dust collection up to the planer (a 4-inch connection is recommended) and it’s been working great. Upon first setting up the planer, we questioned whether we would need to use the finishing speed very often. However, we found ourselves using it quite a bit more than we initially anticipated.

I have a room problem and purchsed a Hammer combo jointer/planer. I’ve been too lazy to put the DeWalt 734 up for sale. If there dewalt tools is someone around Metro NYC interested send me a note. I may replace my old Delta with this planer in the near future.
