30 forum posts | Hi all not hijacking a this post just reminiscing I was a time served heavy machinist and had a long association with Planers Plano /Millers Shaping and Slotting machines. it was common for heavy swarf from the planer to fall and set fire to the duckboards. At almost 78 years of age still get a yearning to be at the controls of a planer. However I still make use of my Alba 10 inch shaper which save me a fortune in milling cutters. B. Reilly Glasgow. |

Anyway last weekend I picked up the one Adam offered and will post some pictures on a new thread so that it can be more easily found by search engines. |
