sold!!!!
I should be paying you. Thanks again for letting me use the planer for all this time. I've actually grown attached to it. Although you can't hog material off, it leaves a really nice surface (when the knives are sharp).
The same thing happend to me. It can cut so well, without snipe, that I do not know if I can part with it. I imagine that you are hot to be rid of it but this may not be the time because we are coming up in the Durango. I know that Crzypete is planning on packing it full of Schrade crap.
That is fine with me. I have a long term plan for it. At some point I will take the Yates off line and fix a nagging problem with the bottom feed rollers (bad bearings and have to be replaced with new rollers and bearings). It will be nice to have the four poster as a back-up.
