new use for my planer....

Barry Irby

I have a Dewalt lunchbox planer mounted on a cart.

My friend and I are working in my shop building some small chests for some drawers he bought at an auction. He was at my bench and I needed to cut some mortices with the Domino.

I put the half inch plywood into the planer and lowered the head to clamp the piece and cut the domino slots in the mitered end Did nine pieces. Worked great. Good height for the operation. Just glad I didn't forget what I was doing and turn the planer on.

When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.
