That one is a newer version than mine. Mine has a handle right behind
the knob, not the "T" in the arm like yours.

I can run an 8 foot dado on it much easier than my table saw, with a
whole lot less effort.


8 foot dado? That is a wide board.

LOL, I should have said 8 ft long. My bad.


Still, an 8 foot long dado, that is a wide board. ;~) I'm yanking your
chain. I'm sure you mean 8 foot groove.


Yes, it was a .709 wide Dado, and I didn't quite get it right on first
past, and with an 8ft long run I wasn't about to go over it again with
the Dado rig. So I went to the local Wormcraft store to by a 1/2"
plane, fortunately it was on sale, but NOOOooo they didn't stock it.

Frustrated I rigged up a sanding block, kept my edges square and
opened it up ever so slightly and it fit hurrah! it fit.

I secretly still would like one of those pretty chromed up planes but
the cost kills me.
