About this deal

The GHO 18V-LI Professional cordless planer delivers impressive performance in the 18 V category. It features a continuously adjustable depth-of-cutting setting of up to 1.6 mm, enabling fast, uninterrupted work progress. The planer is fitted with ultra-sharp and durable carbide reversible blades, producing high- quality, accurate surface results. Its lightweight design ensures easy, comfortable handling. Equipment & Application There’s one thing you can count on in woodworking- if the tool is loud, spins fast and removes a lot of material, there’s going to be a lot of sawdust. It goes everywhere and gets into everything, so having an effective way to remove this stuff is vital. Removing a controllable amount of material is what the best planer does. They’re all controlled in a similar way- an adjustment knob on the front of the tool can be turned to move the spinning blade in relation to the front plate or “shoe” up or down in tiny increments- usually by 0.1 or 0.2 mm per turn. Planing Width

Several users have complained that the dust port gets clogged too easily. It needs regular cleaning out, which wastes time and effort.

Planer, (1) PA1202 Woodrazor Mini Micrograin Blades (2), (1) Dual-Mount Guide Fence, (1) Straight No-Mar Plastic Overshoe for Fence, (1) PA209 3-Degree No-Mar Plastic Overshoe for Fence, (1) Shavings Bag, (1) Blade Wrench, (1) Carrying Case You get all the refined qualities of the excellent Makita KP0800, but without the cord. Ideal for working away from the mains or when you’re fed up with trailing cables. Like most cordless planers, this is a power hungry bit of kit. High Ah batteries are a necessary evil. They’re heavy but mean you’re not swapping over quite so often.

VH1035 and VH1635 (by means of VX120 adapter included with those hoses), VAC005 and VAC006 hoses, and most other 35 mm hoses The other big Japanese tool brand, Ryobi, make one of the best DIY level electric planers I’ve tried out. Famous for their ONE+ series of tools that all share the same battery, it’s a great system to invest in.

What Is The UK’s Best Electric Planer?

Effective dust extraction is the key to quality electric planing. The standard 50mm dust port will fit most extractors and works well to remove almost everything ejected. A ny power planer should feel comfortable to hold and use. They typically weigh between 2.5 and 3kg. Just like the other cordless planers on my list, this tool doesn’t come with batteries or a charger. The first thing to note about this planer is the handle. It’s comfortable and uses Ryobi’s signature rubberised GripZone found on most of their tools. It makes up for the fact that this is a heavier planer than some on my list at 3.1kg. It’s not too heavy, but you can feel the difference over longer sessions.
