FS: Shop Fox 20" Planer with Spiral Insert Cutterhead Mesa, AZ
 

I have in very little used condition Shop Fox W1718 - 5 HP 20" Spiral
Cutterhead Planer


From the manufacturer:
Prepare yourself for the heavyweight champion of planers! This workhorse
has all the features anyone would need, plus a few extra for ease of use.
Constant wood contact with the blades on this spiral cutterhead planer
produces a surface that is unsurpassed and very nearly ready for finishing.
An additional benefit of the spiral cutterhead is its amazingly quiet
operating volume. With a large 20" capacity and rugged construction, this
machine is the last planer you should ever need.

SPECIFICATIONS:
Motor: 5 HP, single-phase, 220V, 28 Amps
Cutterhead speed: 5,500 RPM
Cutting width: 20"
Cutting height: 8"
Max. depth of cut: 1/8"
Table size: 25-3/4" x 20"
Cutterhead diameter: 3-3/16"
Knives: 4 rows, spiral knife configuration, total of 90 knives
Dust port: 5"
Footprint: 27-1/2" wide x 22-1/2" deep
Approx. shipping weight: 800 lbs.



Each insert has 4 cutting edges, they have not been turned yet and the
first set is still in EXCELLENT condition. I will sell it for the cost of a
regular 20" machine with a regular cutter head. $1400 and you pickup (can
help load) in Mesa, AZ (just East of Phoenix)

It is currently in storage and hard to get a picture of it, but you WON'T
be disappointed! (Do a Google Search of Shop Fox 1718)
