Morning, Just been into the workshop for the first time in two months after a hand injury.

SIP 01454 10" x 6" Planer Thicknesser Afternooon everyone. I took all the advice on setting this machine up from this forum and I'm grateful for any help with this problem. I've spent most of the day planing and thicknessing rough sawn 3x3. Everything was going well, and I thought I'd have a cup...
