Thank you very much. Retired and trying to occupy time with things I always thought of doing but never had the time. Saw a planer on sale and before buying, thought I would educate myself on the technics. You gave me a good idea on how to handle one. The do's and don'ts. Your video was excellent in that you explained and followed up with a demonstration of what you meant. Keep up the good work.

Awesome! I just bought that same planer the other day to use on our interior doors. Really easy to use, but I was wondering why the edges weren’t coming out even. You explained everything. Thank you!

@richmac918 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the video. I just bought the planner you demonstrated as I have some door edges I need to clean up a bit and decided that after using a block plane for the last 30 years I deserve an electric planner. When I opened the box I saw the guide and got a little confused about how it worked. I'm glad you covered this in the video or else I would have had to break a long standing tradition of not reading the manual.

This helped me a lot. Getting a gift for my sister's husband and was not sure if hand planers were any good. I have only ever used a large table planer before. Great results it looks like if you know how to use it. Appreciate it, man!

@mjremy2605 4 ай бұрын

What a great demo and teacher! Now I know how to use a planer. I have several drawers and doors I need to plane down. You explained it so well. Thanks for no music, such joy! Glad to see that Ryobi makes one. I'm tired of Dewalt prices for tools made in China. Tip - for reclaimed pallet wood - tap the wood out using a piece of wood and hammer. Then use an Airlocker Reverse Nail Gun with compressor to knock out all the nails fast from any piece of wood. Such a time saver!

I’m a newbie to woodworking, and basically learning on my own. I’ve had this planner for a couple years now because I couldn’t find the right information to use it properly. This is hands down the best video I’ve come across on how to use this planner. Thank you for such detailed information. Now I’m going to go try it out.. lol. Wish me luck 🍀

Most Americans say rye-oh-bee. A slightly better way is ree-oh-bee. The correct, Japanese way is lee-oh-bee, where the lee-oh sound is kind of ran together as one syllable. Hard to explain, so just say ree-oh-bee. Great, to the point video!
