So sorry for your misfortune. It was good that you shared it though, could save others from making the same mistake. Thanks for sharing, Dean.

[@timothywhite6532]

I'm sorry for your grief; but, really appreciate your sharing the disassembly

I have a Steinel hot air gun that’s really good. Perhaps they also make good heat guns. I only have a cheapo of those.

DeWalt makes a good glue gun

What spray did you use? Electrical contact cleaner? It looked like wd40

There's always something to keep you in hell

[@MichaelWilhelm-tf8vy]

How on earth does someone give a planer to anybody with the bladeclamps loose??? 😩 I‘ ve seen a ELU Planer that has been broken the front half off because of that. It flew out of the owners hand while working through the entire workshop.

[@rileychester6244]

I did the same, cracked the front end of my planner and shot the knob off across the room

Frig it is right . U had that short up a few weeks ago . It was a handy fix and then that happens 🤬

[@deandohertygreaser]

Don't chat. I did some amount of swearing of camera. Quick cheap fix, and then it cost me a small fortune
