For those of you that would like to "date your Parks Planer", I am
conducting a survey of Parks/Craftsman 12" planers in hopes of gathering
enough information to be able to establish the year of manufacture or at
least approximate it. If you would care to participate please contact me
via my email and I'll see that you get the survey. If you have already
dated your planer, please let me know how the date went. Curious minds want
to know.



To those of you who have already completed the survey - many thanks -
progress is being made.

For those of you that would like to "date your Parks Planer"

Thanks, but I prefer the company of the women.

ayup.
I bought it as a wood only saw, but once I got it home I discovered
that it has the wood/metal gearbox on it. gloat
it's branded craftsman, weighs about a ton, is a bit crude in it's
details but is waaay stout.

For now I am only interested in the 12" planer. That's keeping me busy
enough.

You fargin' bastage! No really. If there was a saw I'd
quest on that's it. It has a great (small) footprint and if
I remember the re-saw isn't anything to be ashamed of.

heh.....

12 inches under the guides. no option to add a riser, but if you need
more than that you should be looking at something more like a
woodmizer.
