There’s a Northfield in Ohio for $800. The thing is, these planers tend to weigh a ton or more, Check out http://owwm.org for some crazy deals on |

+1. Weight is a huge obstacle specially for a hobby woodworker ,I just bought a DW 735 planer because it is portable(sort of),although I had enough money to buy a good used 15” or even bigger planer but the main reason I didn’t was,as you said, weight ,how was I going to transport it without a truck/a lift,how would I move it around the shop,etc,etc. It is a dream of mine to own a vintage 20” bandsaw,16” jointer,20” planer,a Unisaw,16” RAS,industrial sander, all in a much bigger shop,maybe someday ,but for now all I can do is to watch these beautiful woodworking machines go for sale at the fraction of what they are worth new,,and drool. -- Ken from Ontario, Canada |

Not to far from me. I have it’s cousin, Crescent mortiser, weighing in at 950. It was an adventure to move but well worth it. |
