I am having a problem with a planer and just can't figure it out; wondered if anyone here has any ideas?
The promlem is when I feed timber along the planer it initially starts to cut, but as the wood is fed along the cut gets less and less, until after about 200mm it stops cutting. Creates a wedge shaped piece of wood?
Outfeed table slopes down you think but no........... :shock:
The infeed and outfeed tables are flat with one another, the infeed rises and lowers evenly, blades are sharp and set properly to the correct height. I am using flat and square softwood.
And the tables don't flex as I feed the timber through.
I've been working on this all afternoon and has got me beat, so any ideas gratefully received.
Thanks
