Making your own planer boards

[Wade Joseph]

Anyone got plans? Thought they shouldn't be too hard to make but was hoping someone has done it already and had plans.

A few years back we had a work shop and Surface Tension and others brought theirs in for us to check out and measure. I did a quick search to see if anything was posted on here, I saw a little bit. I'll see if I can dig up my notes.

Somewhere they are posted on Duluth forum but its way back.

bwtrout, if you find them please post them.

We'll have to have another work shop this Spring.

Use cedar or clear pine, you need 2-1"x8"x6'

Board width is 16", height is 6 1/2", length is 34"

I couldn't find the measurements for the locations of the threaded rods or the eyelet. I'll measure mine out and post them tonight. For the angled edge cuts use a block on the circle saw to get more than a 45 degree cut.

For more reading on this forum do a search.
