Dewalt Planer Dw734 Vs Dw735 Vs. Dw735x
You will get an extra set of knives, as well as infeed and outfeed tables with this thickness planer. Good planer, maybe a little too expensive for the amount of snipe I get. If you plan on using a planer daily, a bench planer obviously isn’t the planer for you. DeWalt 753 and 735X are simply the same benchtop planer coming in two different packages. 735X is a wider package coming with a spare set of disposable blades and a set of infeed and outfeed benches that makes your work way easier.
The power feed is chain driven, not a direct gear drive so that simplifies things a little. There’s a primary drive off the motor to the outfeed side & a secondary drive off that to the infeed side. They don’t show a lot of wear & actually still have a slight burr on one side of the teeth. The other side is rounded like you would see w/ normal wear. I’ll suggest to my bud that I continue using it until I’m done & then he can order a new chain & I’ll install it. In fact, when you put it all back together, you should be able to read across the 2 flat blades of the power plug, and see the same conditions when you flip the switch.
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.
If you are thinking of planing all types of rough stock wood, besides having a very durable blade system, you are going to need a powerful motor as well. The DeWalt planer dw735 uses a powerful 15 amp motor that can make deep cuts into all types of hardwood sheets. Combined with its unique three knife cutter head and two speed gearbox, I felt that I had all the power needed to make any cut necessary for any of my projects.
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 dewalt tools 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.
