Well looks like I'll give it one more try since being able to return it is easy. First one left a washboard effect on my wood. I tried all different thickness of cut and both hard and soft wood no luck. So I returned it and got another. Planed about 20 8' cedar boards real nice then moved on to some walnut did it nice too but had to turn the knives cause they got dull. now the machine is making a louder noise than normal and is on auto feed, the thing will creep as it cuts and before you know it is jammed. One more try only because sears is good about returns.
