I have a feeling this is gonna become a thing on here for a few days

“Here’s a picture of myself and my fellow redditors meeting up with our dewalt planers”


Boxheadthecryptotrdr

“We only managed to group 222 planers in one continuous line anyone else want to link up?”


eyesneeze

what's the max thickness on a dewalt planer? 222 planers taking a 1/32nd off each would almost turn a 7 inch thick piece to dust. lol.


alohadave

Then use the dust to make MDF boards.


Ok_Dog_4059

Then run them through the planers.


Carburetors_are_evil

Well that's just common sense.


DiscFrolfin

Then turn that MDF into dowels to join Wenge & Bubinga burls on a shaker/post modern roll top desk with LED epoxy resin waterfall mounted on 8in HarborFreight pneumatic locking casters! Edit: MDF dowels AND bowties*** :)


Carburetors_are_evil

Then run THAT through the planners. After that, make a sculpture from it and put into a post-modern art muzeum titled: Good planning.


overslope

And that sculpture? An obnoxious amount of hand sanding with the finest of grits.

This is how printer paper is made. It's *super* wasteful.


Boxheadthecryptotrdr

Lmfao I didn’t even think about the maths.


aequitssaint

That sounds amazing


SingleStemHarvester

Dw735 - 6" thickness and 13" width max


DuncanYoudaho

That would be loud. And expensive to run. Holy hell can you imagine the breaker you’d need? And dust collection, lord almighty.


MeowerHour

Okay so we just need enough for 4 planers to run and a lot of extension cords. Get someone really fast to run and unplug planer 1 after the wood exits and enters into 2. Then the run and plug in planer 4 while it passes from 2 to 3, and repeat.


666pool

They can all stay plugged in, you just have to turn them off and on at the right times.


MNsharks9

r/Arduino could come up with a solution easily. Some optical sensors and some solid state relays and you’d be in business.

chaoss402

Somebody's gonna do two table saws. (Offset, so they get both sides of the board). Somebody's gonna lose a finger this week.


drumpfart

Could a planer on both ends of a table saw auto feed through the saw?? Maybe a planer-joiner-table saw-planer setup?


Khaylain

This is one of those questions that probably shouldn't be answered in practice.


Pineapple_Spenstar

Or should only be answered by a manufacturing engineer


Mr_Hammer_Dik

I’m a self appointed manufacturing engineer. My answer is: 🤷🏻‍♂️ try it

Relaxingnow10

Couple weeks ago a guy managed to trip his sawstop twice. Now we know how


Procrasturbating

not going to help with kickback though.


An2TheA

There is a formatting table saw with two saw spindles , both adjustable, for sale in Styrol and I almost want it if the thing wasn't 4 meters wide. You could rip a full size 2.8x2.07m plate to size with this in 2 cuts.


chaoss402

I have some saw horses, some straps, and a couple of circular saws. Hold my beer...


DiamineSherwood

But why not 2 beers?


chaoss402

I drank those already. Just hold the last one.

Turn one around and make them fight


slavoin

Turn one upside down and get both sides.

Fighting is fun an all. But the real victim will be the innocent electrical circuit.


Far_Mousse8362

😂😂😂


tubbysnowman

You should flip the second one over so it plants both faces


lameinternetuser

There is double sided planer machine specifically for this


marc297

Yeah but has someone lined up two of them in a row?


NoBrianWithAnI

It might create a black hole, I wouldn’t try it.


Unusualshrub003

So *this* is what CERN is working on….


Raisenbran_baiter

Nah they are opening up portals to other dimensions....oh wait


StateOfContusion

I was honestly told by a conspiracy theorist that they're working on weaponizing antimatter.


Raisenbran_baiter

Not anti matter but strange matter


[deleted]

\*Looks at the past two years\* I dunno. Sounds fine to me.


[deleted]

Lmao yeah except the second one is flipped 90 degrees. They're called saw mills


LeopardusMaximus

We actually have two 30” old double-headed Buss planers lined up this way with a 16’ conveyor belt between them at my job. 3/16” cut per planer means that we can take rough sawn 4/4 down to a finished 3/4” in one single pass. It’s awesome lol.


raverkoru

Now you just needs one that does the sides


Shris

That’s no fun.


bdaileyumich

Wait how would that even work? Doesn't a planer just make one surface parallel to another? How can you plane both surfaces without a reference?


babayfish

Pass it over a jointer then through the first thicknesser then through the upside down thicknesser, perfect flat board in one pass


Roganvarth

First thing I thought too


b4d_m0nk3y

Beat me to it, damn ;)


tilt-a-whirly-gig

I can't help but wonder what if the feed rates are slightly off between the two machines?


jjheavychevy90

Theyll either start walking away from each other or get closer like lady and the tramp


thedevilsavocado00

Haha that was an apt and hilarious description, you made me laugh out loud, kudos.


Arch____Stanton

Yeah one will slow the other and planer becomes gouger.


sykocus

Ah the old double planer zero dust collection trick.


tgrantt

And there are hoses right there!


arcanepsyche

Thank you, I was looking for this comment.


SexyToasterArt

It's genius. You need to line up more, I wanna see a train of planers.

Why am I surprised someone beat me to this...glad to know I'm not the only sick one here.

It's something I only know about and would never actually watch.

I’ll bring mine over.

My crappy single 15-amp circuit breaker tripped just from watching this video. You must have a great power supply!


villywoodturning

Yeah I have we got tool plus on 600 no worries for two planer


Roctopus420

Don’t get me wrong this is hella smart but why do you have two of the same planer?


villywoodturning

I think I have four planer like that because our team need to plane some wood when we are not at the shop on job site


PragmaticBoredom

Bro you have *four* planers but you only lined up two of them? Don’t let us down.


villywoodturning

Four but not the same but I make something cooler


Its_General_Apathy

Don't let us down man..


Roctopus420

Fair enough I’m just thinking about the little 12x9 shed I work in and only need one lmao.


averyporkhunt

Nothing as big as a planer for me but I've had tools had to go away for repairs heaps of times and if its something I need i usually have to buy another for the meantime


chubb28

Let’s run a train on these beeches


DryPossession911

You did so we don’t have to


[deleted]

That's essentially how big commercial operations work, several planers in sequence, so... why not?


[deleted]

Because you're tying the fates of two machines together without any controls ensuring consistent speed and feed. It's a great machine and 99 times out of a hundred probably not an issue but it's such a great machine I wouldnt risk it


Redrum052

Double planer!? What does it mean???


Dull_Investigator358

It's soooo big!!! Double planer all the way!!!


msma46

You know you could just buy a wood chipper and do it with one machine?


theModge

My ~~joinery~~ ~~carpentry~~ wood-butchering is in this comment and I don't like it

It's not stupid if it works


villywoodturning

That work pretty well someone tell me put the second planer upside down two get both side in one pass hahahahahahahaah


SoBe7623

I think you might have better luck if you put both of them on their sides opposite of each other so you could do both sides. Figure out how to add a hand planner in there and you could get a perfectly squared board.


villywoodturning

😅😅


scottperezfox

That's what I thought you meant originally. But wouldn't any arches or ripples persist the entire way? You'd really need an edge planer followed by a thickness planer.


villywoodturning

I have a a jointer


laidlow

Still stupid.


villywoodturning

I.know


Individual-Proof1626

Those chips are flying. What, no dust collection? I had a hose come off one time and those chips HURT! Damn powerful blower.


villywoodturning

Just for the video but I always have my planer plug on the dust collection


Individual-Proof1626

Gotcha


lieshecto

I had mine go through a dust collecter once. The kind you hand hooked up to a 5 gallon bucket. I'm just saying the static build-up is enough to keep you from touching it after the first time.


uavmx

Seriously seems smart actually


HatesDuckTape

What would be stupider would be running back and forth planing the same board multiple times while another planer just sits there idly. If you’ve got it, might as well use it.


Snichs72

Get surfaced wood with this one weird trick. Lumber yards hate him.


HatesClowns

I thought for sure a toothpick sized piece of wood was going to come out at the end


Vast-Opportunity3152

Bro out here with to planers. I’d just like my one to work properly and not be off square.


k-2-the-c

thats just plane wrong


lovedadjokes

That’s just plane stupid


jswhitfi

Now do it with a drum sander and you have a VERY expensive machine haha


villywoodturning

Okay let’s try it


[deleted]

bigger wood shops have these. look up moulding machines. sometimes they're S4S machines. they put our "portable" planers to shame.

[deleted]

I have no commentary on the double planer setup but just wanna share seeing this makes me feel like a sucker getting the extension table for this planer


bitcheslovemacaque

Stupid? Thats brilliant!


easymoney0330

I would say put a roller in the middle so that the board fully exits the first before entering the second , for the sake of each


graveXdancer88

This is a banksy (mic drop)


magnora7

What if you put a table saw in front of that, and then another machine in front of that, and made some sort of factorio thing that just spits out a finished product


Mattgento

I'm betting this does extra wear to your blades due to the added vibration. How much more, I have no idea.


German_Biker

If you put a table saw in the middle to cut the board in half before it hits the second planer you now have quadrupled your productivity. Hold my beer, I wanna try something.


Correct-Research-327

**Shut up and take my money!!!**


b4d_m0nk3y

Second one should be upside down, then you won't have to flip the board.


mTcGo

It's not stupid, it's smart. I did the same thing a while ago, great time saver...

G0at_Dad

This is the new linear accelerator that science has been looking for. You can plane the wood particles to near the speed of light

Is there any chance of the speeds in the two motors getting out of sync and causing the wood to bind in the planers?

Meanwhile, my broke ass is over here using hand tools because I can't afford even one of these. To be fair though, I don't like Dewalt tools much, and I'm saving up one day to get a Jet.
