Hi all
I just took delivery of an axminster AW106PT after reading good reviews
on the site.
It is my first planer so I am not sure what set up is required to optimise performance.
I have set the fence square with an engineers square and although I seem to get a square edge after I have planed the face it looks like my edge is convex along the length - not ideal for edge jointing.
Is this likely to be due to my technique i.e incorrect pressure being applied at start and end of cut, or is it set-up?
