Looking at the Makita 2012NB 12" planer. Sells for $499 at Amazon w/free shipping. Being in WA, I'd also have to pay sales tax (~$45). Searching around, I see Toolbarn has it for $400.01, including shipping & no tax to WA. Best price I've found by far, but I'm wondering if anyone here has used them?
If anyone has this particular planer & would like to share there impressions, that would also be helpful! Was also looking at the Dewalt 735, like its 3 blades (the Makita has 2) & see some good reviews here. Have seen some negative comments elsewhere, though.
I new here (this is my 1st post), looks like a great group, hope this isn't an inappropriate question to start off with ;-)
TIA
