Old Power Planer Restoration Makita 1600

[@joeonejoeone]

We recently lumbered a 36" maple, a 36" white ash, and a 32" pecan. After drying, we tried planing with a Rigid (Home Depot) 13" planer with 2 HSS knives kzbin.infoUgkxIzvvTi3_Qc8JnVdYYRJCvuoDC4QjTzeL . This job was clearly too much for that machine. The pecan was particularly difficult, due to heavy mineral deposits, and a sharp pair of HSS knives would be consumed by a mere 3 boards. We were also having lots of problems from chip bruising, due to poor dust collection. The shavings came off like straw and jammed in the 4" hose.We bought the DW735 simply to be able to run carbide blades, which worked brilliantly for the pecan. However, we found it to be a much, MUCH nicer machine. It was far more rigid than the "Rigid" planer, and far more accurate as well. But what I liked most about it was the dust feed. This machine has its own blower, which shreds the "straw" like shavings as they come off the cutting head and helps boost the shavings into the dust collection system. No more clogs! It's also nicely sealed so that the internals stay quite clean. This is just a well tempered machine that's a delight to use. It literally cut the labor in half. Just another example of getting what you pay for.

He’s not going to rewind that motor. Only Mr Electricity rewinds motors. And he’s in, like, Samoa or the Philippines or somewhere. Respect, young man. You are the real deal.

[@mizukikazama5164]

Definitely not from the Philippines, im a Filipino and their faces are different as well as their language, but still mr electricity is an asian😃

[@21thTek]

Just one word -- Masterpiece !!!

[@bryanhall9034]

Great Job ! From scrap to a fully working tool with years of useful life in it.

[@mikiethebikie]

It’s so great to see a tool restored rather than being dumped in a landfill. Good job.

[@hectordiaz1421]

Congratulations, great job, your very talented Sir, thank you for sharing.

[@rong-man1502]

Extraordinary work! I was very impressed with the level of care and attention to detail shown in this project. I don’t recall anyone taking the windings apart and repairing and replacing the leads as done here. Even the way the foot was leveled and squared up was well done. I also don’t recall anyone else using caster glue either. Truly a master craftsman!

[@Joe1935429]

Great job!, especially the motor. During disassembly I thought the motor was toast. You brought it back to life .

[@benzonet]

Amazing restoration. I enjoyed this very much. The electrical part was very interesting to see. It seems you know your way around these machines very well. Big thumbs up!

[@jesusaguilera8653]

Ok Kkkkkkk Lllllllllllll Llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

[@krishnakamble8083]

[@Xyntax]

this is beyond the usual restoration i've ever seen in your videos, daaammmn! awesome

[@TizonaAmanthia]

I love that you took the effort to rebuild the Staetor on the engine, and everything. It's so uncommon to see old motors refurbished down to this level of completeness! I was half expecting you to soak the coils in something like Vinegar to polish them up just a little.

[@playingbadgolfwell9732]

Excellent. But, just my personal taste, I would have liked to have seen it refinished in the current Makita blue. But I nitpick. Amazing job!!!

[@БогданДугунов-ж7щ]

Потрясающе! Я впечатлен! Мастер Золотые руки!

[@georgebrown8312]

You got the planer looking good, and working, too. That is an awesome job. Well done.

[@ianvicedomini2648]

Great restoration mate. Quite an old planer but you revived it back to it’s former glory.

[@frankierzucekjr]

Between you and My Mechanics, you guys can fix the world lol. Well done

[@WatcherintheDark69]

That was a amazing restoration. The old Makita planer was very beaten up, but you brought it back. Even fixing the commutator and stator. Excellent job!

[@darrengriffiths2372]

Hi sir 👍👍👏iv got to say you have a skill there my friend fantastic work my friend some of us can only dream to repear and strip down bro god🙏bless you dino uk👍👍👏wow

[@mbarakahmed9176]

Your work is superb. I would like to see a change in the WORKING TABLE if it is possible with you. Something like plain WHITE ply or something PLAIN SMOOTH WITHOUT spaces (i really don't know the types but just a suggestion, something like that). It will keep FOCUS on the parts, BRiGHTEN your work place, and easier to CLEAN. You are brilliant and may God bless your hands.

[@erwindwi3213]

Bagus bang. Rapi dan rajin. From Indonesian.. Central java

[@carlogle6207]

Does a massive restore, hits a nail on his reclaimed board, haha. Awesome vid! You got a new sub!!

[@frankierzucekjr]

I can't believe they let those wires come like that from the factory. That's mind blowing. Although it's old-school and well made and metal. The amount of effort you went through to fix that is unbelievable. 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 well done buddy.

[@tissotmotogp88]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video, so must skill and knowledge needed.

[@Maksimilan3]

Вот это настоящая реставрация! Это другое дело!

[@shedmanx3640]

Great work mate. I enjoyed watching you work. 👍🇦🇺

[@garymucher9590]

Pretty integrate refurbishing effort I'd say. But nice work and outcome. I was really surprised the armature contacts could be cut that deep and still have connections to the windings. Color and labels were not the best. But the final results made up for them. Thumbs Up!

[@Алексейшивцев]

Отличная работа мастер!

[@88ElevenShop]

[@louisarmstrong8863]

Grande, incrível restauração...

[@tombarlow6176]

Lovely restoration good machine

[@h.rutten2187]

Nice job, if you can then for the next time use some prominent color like a red, bleu, black, oranje. Never use metal or earthy/ pastel tints, make it stand out, especially with a sanded down metal foot as contrast. Also whenever sanding for a flat service my tip is to glue the sandpaper on a piece of glass window since it’s so flat.

[@wobber999]

What a amazing transformation

[@rbyaldrzee6657]

Beatiful 😍

[@HelloNotMe9999]

Can you put a link to that bearing extraction tool you used with the slide hammer? Thanks.

Back when Makita stuff was well made

[@jamesfield5346]

How did you learn all of the electronic part? Have you studied electronic repair or something like that? I want to learn electrical, all facets but have no clue as to where to begin. A little advice would be welcomed with open arms.
