But the two I wanted to now not afford because it is also my first planing this kind seemed to me the planing of Dick to be an affordable alternative.
I was not disappointed, the workmanship and materials used are good, the handling easy.
The results are great and the surface super straight and smooth
(I do not think that one riff that goodness with loops)
I put the planer primarily in Brettverleimungen (I know those boards can be ready to buy, but do it yourself do more fun) a:
- Dressing and plan adhesive surfaces
- Glued board plan and train.
The regrinding of the planer blade is simple, the service life is the material and the price league more than adequate.
For me, less than optimal is the handle, he is a bit too small (or too big my hands). Now do not get me wrong, you can work great with Him !!
Furthermore suboptimal is working on called "Shooting Board". There, the planer is laterally and can be produced straight, accurate and containing narrow faces. Lying down but the thickness is cumbersome and "bitchy" trains where you could unfortunately tackling corners, edges and castings. Is ultimately, but could be better.
All in all I do not regret the purchase, would always recommend the Dick or buy again.
