Remember when you brought those old jagged boards back to life. The WEN 12.5 in. Benchtop Thickness Planer with Granite Table repurposes rough and worn wood to give it an exceptionally smooth finish. The powerful 15 Amp motor combined with our 2-blade cutting system provides over 17,000 cuts per minute at a 26 ft. per minute feed rate. Plane boards up to 12.5 in. W and 6 in. thick with ease. The smooth granite table never warps and provides precise support to wood passing through the machine. Combine that with the heavy-duty base for a sturdy planer that does not walk or wobble during operation. The handy depth adjustment knob varies each pass to take off anywhere from 0 in. to 3/32 in. The fan-assisted dust port removes chips and sawdust from the workpiece and blasts them out of the way. This package also includes 2 high carbon steel double-edged blades (SK5) along with height-adjustable infeed and outfeed tables that limit snipe while providing extra support to your workpiece during planning. Easily mount the planer to a work surface or stand using the predrilled base holes. Repurpose old wood or make a set of boards flush with the WEN 12.5 in. Benchtop Thickness Planer. And because its a WEN product, the WEN Thickness Planer comes backed by a nationwide network of skilled service technicians, a helpful customer support line and a 2-year warranty. Remember when your planer could handle even the hardest of woods. Remember WEN.

After about 6 times using the planer there was a loud clunking noise. After I inspected it I discovered that one of the gears had broke. I sent WEN an email and I’m still waiting for a reply but I did call Home Depot and they had me bring the machine to the store and return it. So I did a return and reorder online since they do not carry it in the store. I did read on a few reviews that it seems common for the gears to break, so I’m going to order a few extra gears from WEN just to have them on hand…other than that the machine is a great new toy for me to play with in the garage
