@charlesarnold4963 6 лет назад

That was a really good explanation of the differences between a jointer/planer and a thicknesser. It also explained what one is trying to achieve when dimensioning wood as well as the pitfalls. Well done.

@PennsPens 6 дней назад

Decrease the waffle & remain on point, plus, repeatong things over and over doesn't help people. However!! as a tradesman, this is an excellent explanation and overview on how to use these machines correctly and safely. I'd Never Ever recommend purchasing a thicknesser before getting a jointer. Unfortunately people become lazy and rushed and eventually skip the importance step to ensure a Sq, flat product before moving onto the thicknesser stage. Missing the jointer/flattering process has well known, and proven states that leading to serious/:multiple injuries from things like kickback (and Never stand behind or look into a thicknesser -:period!! So, "Always ensure to start by using the overhead jointer process first. Otherwise great video Matt. 👍

Hi Matt, THANK YOU! Great video and logical explanation. I’m in Australia and I have found most things with regards to references are based on the USA but your video was clear. I’m so pleased I purchased a drop saw, router, jig saw and then a ‘Thicknesser’ but I plan on picking up a jointer next for the exact reasons you stated - I want to lift my game and make some nice furniture not just hobby pieces. Great work, I’m going to check out some of your other videos now!

Awesome tutorial video, I wish this was explained when I bought my first jointer. I was guilty of pushing down on the boards and getting all kinds of different shapes but not square. I could find one video out there Marc Spagnuolo aka the WoodWhisper asked what I was doing wrong. First question he asked “ how hard are you putting on the tables and he walked me through it and all is working well. I won’t tell ya how much wood I wasted learning. Matt perfect explanation. Take care my friend

First job I did last week was to set up my Jointer/ Planer tables. They are aluminium tables on my old '70's Lurem Junior. I bought the Parf Guide system from Axminster some months ago, the Parf Sticks were the perfect straight edge for getting the tables horizontal and level. I planed and thicknessed my T&T Sapele to Brace my biscuit jointed Front Gate, after seven years of neglect. Great instructional video, just as easy to get "Snipe" from the jointer side as the thicknesser if the tables are not set up properly. The Sapele came out perfect!

Which device did you settle on buying and how's it going for you after all these months. (I assume you bought one 😀

@NomenNescio99 3 года назад

@@solomon4332 Yes I did, I ended up on a holzmann 260 mm combined planer/jointer. As a newbie I'm probably not the best reviewer, but I'm very pleased with result the machine produces, better than my expectations. Both for the surface quality as well as the precision, my skill is the limiting factor. The procedure when switching between jointing and thicknessing is bit "fiddly" and time consuming - but it's worth it considering the saved space. And the joy of properly jointed wood every time when gluing a panel is hard to describe!

@solomon4332 3 года назад

@@NomenNescio99hey, thanks for replying. I've been looking for trusted products that's not American as we don't use 120V where I live. I'll give these a look. I'm a newbie too but live in West Africa where the lumbers are mostly rough- I'll be needing it often.

@NomenNescio99 3 года назад

@@solomon4332 The model number for the planer I got is HOB260ABS_230V. I've used it mostly for for softwood/pine, and the occasional piece of oak as well. The blades are replaceable, but my first set is still in good condition. The reseller advised me not to buy their slightly more expensive models called something "ECO" as their motors had less powers.

@jc51373 5 лет назад

your videos are fantastic, all are top notch. This video answered a question for me as to whether I can get by with a power planer (thicknesser) and a lie-neilson jointer planer (or a #62). I was trying to avoid buying both machines and incorporating some hand tools into my massive power tool collection as well. My thought was i could 4 square boards easily with those two capabilities, and it's great that someone with your depth of knowledge in woodworking could confirm it for me. thanks for your very clear, thorough and concise explanation.

Never mind, I’ve got an excuse for watching your superb presentation again. 😊

@tommorton7736 6 лет назад

I’m a wood machinist and bench hand joiner, and you should definitely talk about orientation of the timber over the “surface planer” and under the “thickness planer”. We call the jointer a surface planer, or the jacker (after the jack plane) always have done. Great video always full of information.

@MattEstlea 6 лет назад

Cheers Tom. Yes I was going to do a separate video on how to actually use the machines properly. This one is simply to explain the difference between the two. I haven’t heard the name Jacker before!

@tommorton7736 6 лет назад

Thanks a lot for the reply Matt. Yes I'm not sure if the name differs depending on what part of the UK you are from I'm from lancashire up north.. But yes I've always been told its been called a Jacker or a surface planer, surface planer being the "proper" name and jacker being taken from the trusty old jack plane. Or atleast that's what i've been told, i could very well have been lied too for the past 5 years!! keep up the videos very informative!!! techniques are always different and ive been lucky to learn from a great bunch of lads it would be nice to see how you use the jointer to remove cups, bows, twists you get the idea looking forward to the video, i may even learn something or two from it to improve my technique.

@robyndehood1319 4 года назад

Matt, great videos, I love watching your stuff, keep up the good work. I am setting up a tiny shop and am about to start buying the timber to make a workbench. I expected to be able to buy perfectly square timber that had been prepared, but all the timber yards I have spoken to say I should expect bowing and cupping with anything I buy for delivery. Hence I started looking at thicknessers. The Jointer bit scares me, having the fingers near the blade gives me the heebie jeebies. Do you have any advice on whether an entry level thicknesser (e.g. Triton) would be sufficient for cleaning up PSE timber?. Thanks in advance
