Now that is what you call a thicknesser. Lovely restoration and no doubt that beast will outlast most of us. Cheers for sharing

[@NorthwestSawyer]

That thing is an absolute beast! I bet lights all over town dim a bit when that starts up. You have to be loving your new setup. Good for you!

[@szilardpinter]

Northwest Sawyer 😅👍

[@tamastoemoeri4689]

Ugyan szep a gyalult felulet! Nem hiaba dicserik annyira ezt a markat! 👍👏👏

[@garyrogers6761]

I hope that this is just one of many videos we will now see from you as things start to settle down for you in the new shop ??? Watched the pick up and delivery, clean and paint and now the first run so more power to you my friend !!! from Australia all the best for you and yours.

[@szilardpinter]

Gary Rogers thank you appreciate that 😉👍

[@tribsat100]

You main issue with finish and feed is the feed roller. It will be located on the top of the machine just inside the feed end, it will be well worn and they never get any attention. If you take a look at it you will see it looks like a roller with teeth, ie grooves running its length. These will have worn and lost their crisp sharp corners. If you take the time to remove the roller and machine these groove back in it will transform the machine. Most people just wind the roller up on the bottom table and this makes the finish terrible by putting a ‘heel at the start and end of the cut. Hope this helps Regards Stuart Bell

[@attilabori4734]

It will defenietly put the quality of the slabs you're offering to the next level... All the best Szilard! Udv A

[@davegower123]

It’s alive!! Awesome! 👍😊

[@petercurtis9297]

That machine is outrageous. Very nice buy. Looking forward to seeing some dust extraction.

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

I'd love to have a play with that. Sounds like a plane warming up.

[@pawelmartinchajewskicarpen7784]

Gorgeous vintage thickness planer

[@glenwatridge1771]

That sounds AWESOME!!!! when it starts.....thanks for sharing

[@richardlee2488]

They are a beast of a thicknesser 30" wide and having the ability to lift the front pressure bar by hand is amazing. The bit people are saying is a knife grinder is for jointing the knives in the block in the machine. They will give an edge but the flat it produces should be stoned back by hand. Take a look at Rex planers for absolutely massive wide machines.

[@randallmccorquodale3290]

Nice Planer you have there!

[@gentilejoshsaved1646]

That baby has some power. I have sharpened knifes before it's not that hard to get them good

[@SteifWood]

Congrats on epic upgrade - from the box planer in the beginning. Now you only need upgrading to massive helical cutter head, in/out feed tables with roles, a zillion CFM blower, 10" stainless ducts, a super cyclone tower, double 0.0001 micron filters with 200 gal bins ........ hey, and dont forget automatic fire control (I just witnessed one in a large pro shop so that's my serious part). One caramel eats the next.

[@szilardpinter]

Stiff Wood yeah that spending money thing is just never seems to be ending. 😅👍 Cheers

[@mytrashaccount3630]

Hi Szilard; it seems to be a great piece of machinery you bought here !! I wish you much much pleasure with those big and beautiful slabs

[@szilardpinter]

My trash account thank you appreciate that

[@johnconklin9039]

What a beast! Sounds like a prop plane firing up.

[@rorylobban4789]

Hello mate. Bit jealous of your machine there. Just a wee note tho, if you avoid letting the end of your boards come in contact with the concrete. Your planer will stay sharp much longer. It avoids ingrained grit being passed through the machine

[@MrGeoffreySmith]

What a glorious monster! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@TakamiWoodshop]

Fantastic huge machine - love it!

[@mcremona]

I’m a bit jealous 😄

[@szilardpinter]

Matthew Cremona thanks Matt 😉👍

[@livinlos1]

Now that is a machine!!

[@ryananthony4840]

Nice bit of kit

[@fhagerber4079]

Now this is a planer nice

[@ot9180]

A beast off a planar! Those boards melt away in it. Ha e fun.

[@Lutzboater]

WOW,,,what a beast !!

[@marcelhardy49]

Just got the same machine although yours looks in much better shape. Started it up today for the first time and it sounds great ( I only have the sound on your video for comparison). Any idea where I can get a service manual or operation manual. I cant find anything online and with living in Cape Town, South Africa, there arent too many of these around. Will appreciate any assistance. Thanks

[@nickjohnson5046]

Brilliant extractor

[@SilverBack.]

Szilard GREAT to se the planner in action

[@KravchenkoAudioPerth]

Holy chipped blades! You really need to rig up that knife grinder! Perhaps you can shift one or two blades to get rid of some of those nicks in the blade?

[@szilardpinter]

Kravchenko Audio yeah that’s desperately needs sorting. 👍

[@TheSnekkerShow]

Wow, that thing is a tank. Hope you know a good sharpening service.

[@josearistidessouzasantos9313]

Máquina fantástica

[@ryans2571]

Very nice planer you have . I'm actually looking at purchasing one aswelll . If you don't mind me asking, how heavy is it . Thanks

[@szilardpinter]

Very. don’t know for sure but could up to 2tons

[@thegreenman4898]

next up, a sawdust stove for the shop! ;0)

[@sethbracken]

Save your dust, you can start pressing your own brand of hardwood MDF.

[@pawelmartinchajewskicarpen7784]

That is a machine for woodworking

[@Cjnchef]

What about knife chadder? Does it leave lots to remove through sanding?

[@edgardorobles2951]

How much is your price

[@logsnstufffirewoodsawmilli4453]

What is the model?

[@davydmir6565]

have you tried the knife grinder yet?

[@petikovacs5024]

Szia. Magyarul nem csinálsz videót róla

[@szilardpinter]

Peti Kovács Szia nem valoszinu

[@maxhaokip3417]

Halo sir price

[@edgardorobles2951]

Pls let me know your price

[@tyler4164]

Great sound on start up but the dust collection is poor

[@szilardpinter]

David Tyler can’t be poor if there isn’t any 😉👍

[@ryananthony4840]

Having so much fun with new toy he planes slab down to sheet of paper...... lol jk jk
