I looked at several, Porter Cable was my first choice, but I settled on the Craftsman. It had more user friendly settings for the depth. Seems as though the PC had more plastic parts in the adjustment areas. Neil Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

Also John.
I work at a planer mill here in Idaho.
Or primary species are Douglas Fir and Hem Fir(White Fir) not Hemlock.
I found a couple of very interesting pieces in thte 2x4 Hem Fir.
It is a leaf scar, which is a characteristic that is rarely found in this specie.
I will take some pictures and send them to you.
I always wanted to make veneer out of them and do a dashboard in a boat.

John
If you e-mail me your mailing address, I will send you a couple chunks.
It is Hem-Fir so it is soft.
Just take it and do your majic, its on me. Don't worry about shipping either. I will get the wheel to you someday and we can do the barter that way if you like.
I would just like you to have it to show off a little with.
