HELP!!! I have a Delta 12 1/2" Planer, and need to adjust the on and off feed tables. Any help, or where to look would be a great help!!!! Thanks in advance.
What Mark said. Current wisdom indicates both in and outfeed tables should be adjusted just a little bit higher at the ends rather than level with the platten.Mark Mandell said:In fact, I adjust the outfeed table to have a slight upslope which seems to help with snipe.
Sorry... I wasn't tongue-in-cheek enough. I was poking fun at all the guys who have turned their flatwork machines into assembly tables and drying racks and suchjohn lucas said:Greg I use a planer constantly in wood turning.
Mark Mandell said:Don,
I set my planer's (JPM-13) in and out feed tables with a 3' straightedge. Set it on the base platten and then adjust the brackets and set the tables to match. In fact, I adjust the outfeed table to have a slight upslope which seems to help with snipe.
