You don't have to crank it while using it, technically. It adjusts the
height of the blade.
Unfortunately, with hard woods, you can only cut "so deep," so you need
to take shallow passes... kind of like a router.

The guy in the video seems pretty adept at
"making a pass-adjusting blade height-making a pass-adjusting blade
height"
pretty quickly, as I figure most users would get after some practice.


For the money they want it should have a mechanism which automatically
raises the blade height by a user adjustable amount with each pass.

For the money you can get an electric TS. ;~)



......Or less even. I just bought a new 12" TS, L.H tilt, with sliding
table, two table extensions and a primitive biesemeyer style fence for less
than AUD$700
