Having just purchased the said planer viewing this video made assembly so easy. Up and running in much less than an hour and as you said, you cant knock it fir the money. So!! Grumpy's Workshop deserves a huge thank you, so!! thank you.

I wonder if titan watch these videos so they can upgrade their products. Thanks for assembly I couldn't have done it without you. I learn most things from KZfaq but the adverts kill me!. Thanks again.

Just bought mine. Different make (I live in New Zealand) but it is exactly the same thing. The instructions that came with it is rubbish and I have spend an hour struggling before looking for help on you tube. Your instructions are excellent and has addressed all the areas I had issues with. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. Much appreciated.

I bought this machine second hand and I’ve got to say, now I’ve watched your video, I’m really all set to use the machine. Mine didn’t make the click as I wound the thicknesser bed up though!? I’m yet to switch on so let’s see if I need to adjust anything or it lets me use it without having had the click! Great informative video. Thank you 👍

Thank you so much, very thorough, I watched a few videos and you are the only one I’ve seen who mentions the blade setting block. Much appreciated.

Just bought one from Screwfix £179, I couldn't work out how the dust extractor work, thanks to you it's no problem cheers mate👌👍🤗

TQ for the excellent review. I bought a unit and the knob that lower/raise the planer tray get stuck at every turn of the knob. called the supplier and was told to expect some hesitation .. it was a struggle until i watched this video showing the chain adjustment underneath the unit. After adjustment then is no hesitation at all. Again thanks and keep your good work.

Excellent video, made everything easy to understand. I will definitely now be buying this very soon. Keep up the good work.

very informative and well presented. yes that nut under the the dust extractor is a right pain in the a**s to do up, when comes off next its staying off, thanks for sharing that tip

hi grumpy,liked and subscribed i shall catch up on past vids its good to see a brit doing a woodwork channel

Just bought one for diy use it’s a bargain, thanks for the video Grumpy,

Thanks for this. It was a really big help while assembling it! Much better than trying to refer to the manual. I wonder if just screwing a piece of flat mdf to the fence would make it any better? Just a thought.

The only thing I had hoped u would show us was u using a piece of actual pallet wood that needed cleaning up so we could see the real difference.. That would've been awesome my friend.. Maybe u could do a quick follow up one day to let us see how it works on dirty pallet boards & give us a proper close up of the machine in action.. Just me thinking out loud bro.. I still enjoyed this video..

Hi Gurmpy, (I find this is addressing very funny indeed) One of the best comprehensive presentations I have come across on KZfaq. Very useful to anyone who wants to use this Titan Thicknesser. You deserve a massive thank you for making things simple. Please can you tell me what are the dimensions of the blades in mm? Best of luck. Thank you.

Bought one of these at the weekend, and after a few light test passes in both modes it clunked about a bit and then stopped altogether. Took it back to Screwfix and swapped it over with no bother. Haven't yet run the new one because I wanted to watch this video and make sure I wasn't doing anything wrong. Doesn't seem like I was. But I have noticed that the infeed table lock handle just goes round and round and doesn't appear to tighten or do anything at all (but it seemed fine on the previous broken one). I'll take it off and see if there's something visibly wrong. I paid £179.99 for mine.

Hi Great video,just one thing that confuses Me.when you remove the hex bolt and flat washer for the in feed locking knob, you also remove an insert.The instructions don't mention removing this insert.

at 7:40. You may have play because you also left the guide out. I think the metal guide is meant to be left in and just the bold and spring washer get removed.

Thanks for the video mate.. I just bought one of these from ScrewFix in Dublin yesterday but I had to pay 219 Euros.. The exchange and VAT is a bloody nightmare.. I also bought the Titan Table saw as well.. If I get good joy from them both I may go back for the BandSaw as well.. LMAO.. I'm in the process of setting up my own workshop atm so this video helped me out a fair bit bro.. Nice one again anyways and I will be looking in to see if u have any more decent vids to watch as well.. I liked and Sub'd to ur channel too btw.. Salute to u Sir..

Well said Grumpy good vid for those that are not doing high end stuff

Got to agree with you I don't find changing the dust collector over that much of a faf, especially if you plane all the timber first and thickness after, I noticed when ( at time 6.37) when you removed the bolt to replace with the knob you also removed the square silver spacer, i don't think you do that just remove the bolt and washer, at least that's how I set mine up. (hope that makes sense)

I've recently bought this. I found the planer infeed table a pain to get level. The fence was level. Ran some timber through the planer and thicknesser, timber was square. Didn't find the dust shroud a pain to change over. Did notice there are two bolts behind the main cover to loosen the planer in-feed table which the instructions didn't mention. Over all very impressed for the price. How long will it last? Only time will tell. Great vid, keep it up.

Good breakdown mate. I agree it's good for the money, I only used mine in the thicknesser mode as the planer was out of square. 😊

i have been looking into getting a planer/thicknesser for a while now with the added option of being able to do jointing as well this machine im thinking is a must have but could you tell me if you leave the blade guard off of the top will the machine still work? just i do alot of jointing bigger boards and it look to me as if the guard would get in the way once standing by the side of the machine

Hi Grumpey, how does one adjust the back table to prevent the workpiece from sniping or rising and creating an untrue edge

So how is it 6 months later?

Came from Karl pope channel

I cringed watching your video at 13:19, your thumb was over the back edge of the wood you were passing over the rotating cutter block, nothing protecting you if it slipped, use either a pusher stick or pusher pad, I know there are shops called “Second hand shops” but that isn’t meant literally.

Dont forget the inhibitor switch which does not work
