does anyone know of an electric planer i can use like makita or dewalt,black and decker ? can i use the bit that is in it?i’ve ordered some books on shaping but i’m excited to start!
You can use any planer pretty much. I recommend the one harbor freight makes. It’s inexpensive, and a good beginner planer to learn on. They have a website if you don’t live near ventura i believe. And yes, you use, or can use, the blade that comes with it.
thanks for the help biz i really appreciate it
how about a makita 3 1/4 4amp or a dewalt 3 1/4 7amp both have round blades .will one of these work if so which one might be better?
i have a dewalt that i like.
but really…a planer is a planer…they all do the job.
you’re overthinking the process…just go get a blank and remove foam 'til it looks like a surfboard should…then, stop removing foam.
that is all.
