Jointer and Planer, Exactly How to Use Them, What They Are, What They Do, and Why You Might Need Both
Having lumber that is flat and square with parallel faces & sides makes any woodworking project go so much easier. This really is the secret to good woodworking. If you have to fight your lumber, it’s very difficult to produce quality pieces.
The jointer and planer are the magic tools that will give you perfectly flat & square lumber. But, you MUST know how to use them. There is a specific sequence to using them to produce the required results.
Unfortunately there are a lot of misinformation out there as to the proper way to use a jointer. With this video I will attempt to explain the proper use of the jointer and the planer, and explain why things must be done in a certain order, and show that the jointer alone is insufficient.
One thing to consider, if you have a jointer & planer, a much bigger market of wood opens up to you. You can buy rough sawn lumber. You can buy lumber cheaper if you flatten & square it yourself. And of course, you can even turn some branches or logs into lumber since you can now do your own milling.
Here is a link to some of the tools I used in the video… I’m also including a couple of jointers and planers that I’ve used in the past that I like.

This is an excellent distillation of how to mill wood. As usual you’ve made the fundamental principles clear and easy to remember. Thanks for continuing to educate!

@Schillerm82 Год назад

As others have noted, this is by far the best video on the planer vs jointer subject. The general idea was in my head but the detail you provided with markings made the last AHA moments happen. Thank you!

@KingsFineWoodworking Год назад

Thank you. It was kind of you to take the time to write a note.

@louieavi Год назад

I had to deduct what the joiner does as it wasnt "really" explained. Seems to me if you can get 1 to 2 side straight, the planer can do the rest. Also in a DYI instance, the table saw can be used in place of a joiner (I would have loved a comment on this as I could be wrong). This video helped alot.

@richwigginton5553 5 лет назад

I really enjoy your videos. I find them very illuminating as I am a novice woodworker just starting in making furniture. Do you have any tips for setting up planers and jointers? My workspace is small so instead of stand alone pieces of equipment like you have I have a lot of bench top equipment that requires me to set upt and tear down each time I use them. One of my biggest problems is with snipe on the planer (thicknesser). I have watched you send boards through the planer in many videos without any snipe which leads me to believe I am doing something wrong. I would love any tips or suggestions and a reference video if you wanted to do one would be a huge help. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

@68HC060 5 лет назад

Avoid snipe by sending a piece of scrap-wood (same thickness) in before the wood you're working, and another piece of scrap-wood (again same thickness) after. This is easy if you work with 2x4 for instance: One short 2x4 (say 80 cm), followed by your 3m 2x4 followed by another short 2x4 (maybe 85 cm). -Make sure the scrap-wood is not too short, though. You can of course send one piece of scrap, followed by many full-length boards, followed by a final piece of scrap. -Or just send two full length 2x4 through and cross-cut the snipe off if you need to shorten the 2x4 anyway.

@tomn6863 3 года назад

Great explanation. Better stress safety though. Please don't run you fingers that close to the blade. When face jointing the 3/4" of wood can disappear in an instant and your fingers go into the blades. Same with edge jointing. Even your trailing hand can be injured if that finger gets too low or slips off.

Hey. Recently became exceedingly active in my home improvement. Oh I so want a video on how to make designs I'm wood and what machine to use to cause round or scalloped shaped forms from wood. I make art with wood do you think you can help me figure what I need ?

@paulwest4888 4 года назад

Thank you. Wish you had talked about infeed table height. Noticed you never used or changed it. Took several passes instead. What do I set it at and do I always just leave it there?

@leehaelters6182 3 года назад

Paul, you can take as much cut as you have power for, sometimes you need to remove a lot of stock, sometimes just a light pass. If you find yourself feeding slowly because the motor is dropping speed, then it’s too much cut. Some folks like to know what increments they are removing, and leave it set at that. I think that such is rarely necessary, and sacrifices efficiency.

@jorgeroca9846 4 года назад

James, great video but I have a question I ran a 12” by 1” by 6’ that was twisted and the result were terrible. The jointer was eating only one side the one was closed to the fence there is any way that fix this. Was operator fault or machine being no set correctly? Thanks and hope you have the time to answer these questions

@NirvanaWoodWorksbyJanie 5 лет назад

Really awesome video! Just in time too as I was looking into cleaning my jointer. The only difference is my jointer top is cast aluminum. Any tips on how to get the build up/dirt/stain off? Thanks!

@KingsFineWoodworking 5 лет назад

Hi! Clean it the exact same way! I've had a great many cast aluminum surfaces, and they clean great with acetone, and they need to be protected with a top coat of something like the Boeshield T9. That will make the surface slicker also so the wood moves over it easier.

@NirvanaWoodWorksbyJanie 5 лет назад

Perfect! Thank you! Ohh can I use Johnston Paste Wax for the top coat? That's all I have on hand currently. Thanks again boss!

@KingsFineWoodworking 5 лет назад

Johnson’s Paste Wax will work great!

@NirvanaWoodWorksbyJanie 5 лет назад

I just noticed that on the video description you listed the Cutech 8" jointer and that's the exact model I have. I love it so far. Just got kinda bummed out when I noticed scratches and dirt on it from all the pallet jointing I was doing. That's what prompted me to look into how to clean it but most of the videos out there are for cast iron tops. I even asked Michael, from MK Designs, I believe it was yesterday & he was trying to help me out too. Thanks y'all!

@padraics 4 года назад

Two corrections "must have a jointer or hand plane" and "must have a planer or hand plane" Those are still won't though because you could use a router, planer with a jointing sled/jig, etc. There's more than one way to square, flatten, and dimension a board!

@cwell2112 4 года назад

After jointing the first surface on the bowed board, you state that there's no point in jointing an adjacent edge and that instead you'll use the flat reference face on the planer to make the opposite face parallel. Why do you plane the opposite side first before jointing the edge? It seems you could just as easily use the first flat surface as a reference against the jointer fence to establish your first square corner.

@garystop11 3 года назад

@maddog1918 4 года назад

That planer is SOOOOOOOOO much quieter than my dewalt planer

@timothydu9415 4 года назад

I don’t see why you couldn’t or wouldn’t face 3 sides on the jointer and then move to the planer (as opposed to going from jointer>planer>jointer). You only need one flat face in order to get the other adjacent faces square on the jointer.

@mackulous 3 года назад

Best tutorial for planer and jointer use I've seen.

@backpacker3421 4 года назад

Personally, my sequences is to joint one edge and one face, so I have two flat square surfaces, then I use the table saw to make the other edge parallel and square, and the planer to make the other face parallel and square. One advantage to this method as well is that you also have rapid, easy, and accurate control over the dimensions.

@cferrara1125 10 месяцев назад

I joint one flat surface. Then plane the other side with the planer. Then back to the jointer for one edge. I am able to joint the edge from either side noting the grain of the wood. No tear out this way. I Then finish the other side on the table saw, or my radial arm. This method was presented by Bill Wilson Fine Woodworking. Really made sense to me. And works.

@wesleypryce3733 5 лет назад

Excellent video! When you have a spiral cutter in the jointer and/or planer, does grain direction still matter when you send your lumber through both machines?

@68HC060 5 лет назад

Not a dumb question. Grain direction always matter, however, with a good spiral / shelix / helical cutter, the surface will be more smooth. If you're only wood-working occasionally, it might be better to just get a cheap jointer / thicknesser and then a good hand-plane. Use the hand plane as finishing tool to smoothen the surface.

You must be a JOY as a professor to have! Can't wait for the next video now! Lol

@sylvaingregoire9262 5 лет назад

James again a pointer needed to be said , and very inportent to know ! To have a square face to an edge we need to put the face first on the jointer , then you put the face that you’ve just jointed on your fence and join an edge square to the face ! After , if needed by the amount to remove wood , you eather go to the table saw to remove up to 1/16” to your finish dimention or you pass it on to the planer right away . After your to edges square you pass your last face in the planer and voilà you have a square board !

@clydedecker765 5 лет назад

The use of "planer" is somewhat misleading to other countries who prefer to call it a "thicknesser" ... (more appropriate in my opinion but) ... it is technically a planer too. One New Zealander I know calls it a planer/thicknesser at all times.

@68HC060 5 лет назад

Or "thickness planer" where I live. =)

@runforrestrun1965 2 месяца назад

Or we also more commonly call it a “buzzer” for a jointer too. Thicknesser still called a thicknesser though.

Replaced bearings on my 25 yr old griz jointer, inexpensive, and OMG what a difference in noise. Why oh why did I wait/ spiral even quieter but $$$$$$$$$$$$$.

@stuartgray5877 Год назад

Dumb question - @26:33 when you are explaining the spiral cutting head: WHY doesn't the spiral go the other way to force chips towards the fence and the dust collection? Spinning CW from the camera perspective would push chips towards the camera. The spirals could be reversed such that they force chips away from the camera.

@configuremakeinstall 5 лет назад

@jasonscachette1296 5 лет назад

You can use the jointer to fix a board that one end is wider than other like the first board you used. If one end is 1/8 inch wider than the other, you set the infeed wing down to an 1/8 inch. Then you place the shorter end OVER the blade so it does not remove anything and then push your board through. The cut will start at 0 and end at 1/8 in the end. Hopefully I explained that okay but I’ve down it plenty of times and there are videos out there showing. Overall, this is a good video.

Can you run very badly weathered 2x6x12' redwood deck boards through a bench planer with good results? Many of these boards are mildly bowed but I don't see any twisting. I don't need a perfect finish, or to correct the bowing or other irregularities, just smooth enough to walk on with bare feet. Demoing the deck and re-purposing the usable(?) redwood boards to a ground level platform. Good idea, or am I wasting my time? Looking at the WEN 12.5" 15 amp 2 blade model for around $289. Anyone familiar with it?

I'd rather as my wife says, "Measure 10 times and make 20 cuts." Keep producing content and maybe let that spark-of-a-daughter do a project start to finish.

@johnjacobjinglehimerschmid3555 4 года назад

So when using the jointer???? How and where do you apply the pressure? 1. Do you force it to the back fence? 2. Do you apply down force on the input side of the blades 3. Do you apply down force on the output side of the blades Hmmmmm guess I should watch longer.

@gaiustacitus4242 Год назад

Power woodworking tools like the jointer and planar are very poorly designed for performing the basic function of both squaring and dimensioning boards. As you pointed out, some operations are still best performed using a table saw. The only thing you did not cover is that applying common practices for use of both the jointer and planar to dimension boards can result in the workpiece being below the minimum desired thickness. But then, the customer never knows the woodworker's intent and probably doesn't notice such defects after adjustments are made to compensate. Milling machines designed for working with metal can perform both functions on the same machine. A metal working machinist would balance the defect to ensure the minimum amount of material is removed when flattening, and then remove an equal amount of material from both sides to bring the material to the final dimension in order to prevent internal stresses from future warping of the processed workpiece. Of course, there are best practices of the trade to ensure the finished workpiece is flat, parallel, and square to all sides.

@sandboxaperture7013 4 года назад

I couldnt get the side that had the concave shape to become flat .... the stock was 1" thick orignally .... is it possible that pine is "too springy" and is difficult to joint in longer lenghts ? ... I applied minimal pressure and the pressure was applied to the outfeed side .... yesterday I jointed a 30cm piece of hard maple and didnt have any problems

This is awesome. I have a small Delta jointer, and I need to use it more. I did learn to taper table legs with it, but I need a review if I ever make a table again with tapered legs.
