Lumberjocks
Just wanted to post an upgrade worth while. I changed out the power cord on the planer from the stock 8 foot cord to a 16 foot and can't believe I waited this long. I upgraded the cord from 14 gauge to 12 gauge just to be sure there were no issues. I also made an Etsy purchase - a 3D printed exhaust shoot that opens topside at 4-inches vs the 3-inches with built in blower from the factory. You must have a strong dust collection system to do this because the factory blower is no longer in play. I am in the wait and see mode right now. Testing continues. 3 inch with blower vs 4 inch and plumbed to dust collection.
