  1. Planer Sled (for face-jointing wide boards)

    I just purchased a DEWALT DW735 planer (my wonderful wife practically forced me to-honest!), I'm not sure I've ever seen a truly flat board, and I have no space or budget for a jointer. So I thought I'd build a planer sled to act like a face jointer. (For edge jointing, I'll use my table saw or...

  4. Planer Sled

    I made a couple of changes in the details of the planer sled of Keith Rust (FWW). First the local Blue Box Store's 1/2 inch plywood was a joke, so I went with 3/4" birch and a pair of oak 1×2s inbetween. The 'risers' are also 3/4 oak sticks trimmed down to 1 inch. Most everything else is from...

    Hello LJ's Here is a planer sled for a 12 1/2" planer, I followed the FWW plan on this type of sled , it's fairly basic stuff I used the wood(mdf)from an overpriced desk, I purchased from a office furniture store. The supports are Alder, they too were scraps. The bottoms have 3m anti-slip...

  6. Who said that using a planer sled is messy

    I'm in the middle of building our cherry dining table. Its top is going to be made from two 15-16" wide cherry slabs. Since my jointer has 'only' 12" capacity, a planer sled is a logical choice. But I'm always reluctant to use it because it's pretty darn messy… (Photo 2) So I improvised some...

  7. New Design Lightweight Planer Sled

    Here is another planer sled design if anyone is interested. Like usual, I went overboard on what could have been a simple tool, but the result is a moderately light weight (especially compared to some of the designs I've seen) sled that is rigid & easily adjusted. The main features are the...

  8. Planer sled

    I made a planer sled to plane some wood I did not want to rip down to fit on my 6" jointer. It's made from 3/4 MDF as a base with some side and end runners. I use shims to keep the board stable. I use hot glue to keep everything secure. Just take light passes to establish a flat surface then you...

  9. Planer Sled

    This is a planer sled, which is used with a thickness planer. It allows you to take a board that is to wide for your jointer and flatten one side. Then that flat side can be used without the sled to flatten the other side, with your thickness planer I based this sled on one Keith Rust did for...

  10. Another V-Drum Sander

    I hate my brain sometimes. A couple of months ago I started building a Lingerie Chest. I bought some cherry and planed it down. It was cheap cherry from the 'shorts' pile. It was too wide for my jointer so I had to play with jointing wide boards. It did not have the best grain. (i.e. SWMBO...

    I only have a 6 inch jointer. Although I would like to upgrade it to a 10 inch or larger it just is not going to happen in the near future. For the occasional need to join the first surface of a board wider than 6" I have been investigating the use of a planer sled. I understand how they can...

    Not too long ago, I read on this forum about using a sled to get the high end of board off while using a planer. The way I'm picturing this in my mind, the sled's length would have to be as long as the stock you're working on. And, the lip would have to be lower than the stock. Is this right? Be...

    Hey guys, I was curious to see if anyone has a method for milling long and heavy boards. I have about eight 12' x 8" × 2.5" boards that I need to mill for a table top. I have an 8" jointer, 15" planer and table saw which normally get the job done. However, I was dying after attempting the...

    Planer Sled As part of my workbench project I needed to mill up a somewhat large piece of lumber for the main chop on my face vise. It was larger than my 6" Jointer could handle. I needed to find an easy way to mill the 2 large faces. I have been wanting to make a Planer Sled for awhile now...

    The Beginning Good morning folks. I recently got a commission to build a harvest table for some of my fine relatives who are in the process of building a new home. They have the same affection for heart pine that I have so that's what we're going use for stock. They recently sold a beautiful...

    Spanish Cedar Gate I've been making some gates for my house. Here's a link to a project I posted a earlier. Here's the drawing. the gate is roughly 6 ft tall and 4 1/2 ft wide. So it is a rather large gate. While the back gates, made from inland red cedar, came out fine, I wanted a more...

    I will soon have a need to face joint 8"-10" wide boards 3'-4' lin length. I am new to woodworking so my tools for this task are limited to a table saw and a benchtop planer. I have completed much research on planer sleds for face jointing. Everyone references the FWW sled but that looks like...
