The planer is an absolute beast. Performs perfectly. Zero issues.
Thank you Bill!!! I spent and hour and a half in my shop tonight enjoying some Def Leppard on my Pandora and converting 11 fixtures using these bulbs. Wow! What a difference! Incredibly easy and...
One turn of duct tape.
I split a 6" drop with a 6x4x6 wye. 4" to the overhead and 6" to the cabinet. I have gates on both so I can isolate one or the other or meter wherever in-between.
...
I did that...once. I have a plexiglass window in the lid of the drum now so I can manually monitor the level.

6" to an HVAC register boot. I put a couple of sheetmetal wings on the boot to help capture the dust. The saw is able to swivel and tilt it's entire range with this setup. I ran 4" to a 4" x 2.5"...
I installed the Wixey digital readout on my new planer. Helped a buddy fix an antique chair. Started trying to transfer a bunch of old pictures off my old computer. Re-discovered a lot of good times...
Hi Keith! I was very pleasantly surprised with the lack of noise. My old setup likely irritated people that lived a mile away.
Come on over.
Look Chris, there will be none of that. I have a reputation to maintain. lol... :D ;)
Thanks! There is so much in life that is dictated by others rules, or external circumstances or demands. Inside these 4 walls all of that goes away and I'm free to do what I want the way I want when...
I like it! Nice work. I too build lots of things from construction lumber. Very cool to get that out of a single 2x12. I'm sure it will serve you well for a long time.
Continuing in my normal mode of not leaving well enough alone, I decided that I "had" to have the Wixey WR550 digital readout for the new planer. $70 to my door off Ebay was the best deal I could...
I've been replacing the fixtures in my shop but at this price I think I'll give these a try!
The infeed roller is serrated and the outfeed roller is smooth. I've not seen any marks left on the wood at all.
We campaigned an electric powered dragster for a few years. Really fun and satisfying project once we figured out how to stop destroying a motor every time I hit the pedal. Of course we were sending...
Thanks Jim! I'm very pleased with it.
Hi James. I am a long time Grizzly customer, but with that being said, this planer is made in Taiwan in the same factory that makes the Powermatic planer. I suspect the Laguna and Jet are also...
Thanks Ken!
First impressions video. I wasn't planning on doing this so didn't have my remote mic or anything else I should have had so pardon the quality but you'll get the idea.
...
Thanks guys! I really do work in there. :D
Night #2 got us up and going. I dug up the proper fittings and such and got the ductwork connected to the planer and the sander. Finished cleaning the...
After debating and agonizing over it for years, I finally dove in and bought a Grizz G1033X Byrd spiral head 20" planer. UPS Freight delivered it today. Everything arrived in perfect condition. Super...
Interesting! Thanks for the info Julie.
Cool! I'm looking forward to seeing that.
Incredible work Julie! Following for updates.
