What year is your planer? I have one I bought back in the early 80’s and it has a stainless steel bed not cast iron like yours.

I don't like the idea of using a hose pipe Water and machinery don't really mix

Very Helpful, thanks.

Looks like it would have been easier to assemble the pedestal upside down, then flipped it right side up..and yes printed instructions with clear pictures are equally important as a video as often times the videos leave a lot to be desired..appreciate your video documenting some of the shortcomings..Thanks..

Maybe turn off the music if you’re going to talk without a mic, I have no idea what you’re saying 😂 thanks for the video tho……………..

Looking at one of these in my local craigslist for $100 though I already have a near-new Dewalt "lunchbox" planer. I would NEVER use a water spray on cast iron, or any machinery for that matter. Yes it will remove the Naval Jelly and splatter the residue all over your yard (hazardous waste, I used to be in that business). Two, water will get everywhere on your metal and cause corrosion. "Rust Removers" or "Rust Conversion" products are mostly phosphoric acid, which reacts with red-orange ferrous rust to chemically convert it to black iron phosphate. The darkening of the applied product you see is indicative of that chemical reaction progressing. The viscous stuff you used needed to be scrubbed in b/c the reaction only occurs at the interface of iron and product. You'd say time and energy using a thinner product. I prefer Ospho (another phosphoric acid product) which is water-thin and thus wets the pits better.. A little goes a long way and no scrubbing needed. Instructions for use are vague about whether to clean it off when finished; I simply saturate the surface with WD-40 and wipe it off. Note that exposed metal will flash rust almost immediately, particularly if you scrub it off with water. Not to worry, that flash rust is only a thin powder on the surface. I got a 14" Delta bandsaw a while back, and had a China-made 6" jointer, both needed their tables cleaned. A wet spray of WD-40 plus elbow grease and some 180 grit wet-dry sandpaper had the cast iron tables on both machines looking nice. Repeat with 220 and 400 grit, wipe off, apply past wax and Bob's Yer Uncle. No risk of wash water causing corrosion elsewhere, in places I couldn't get to. But I do have to say that the protective effect of paste wax isn't as long-lasting as I'd like. Note this process does no leave the visible nail brush marks.

Can you tell me what the wheels for the stand say on the side? I am trying to source some.

if the music was just a little louder I wouldn't have to here you talk

I'm not sure what happened, but I can't hear the audio unless I crank my volume. So high I would blow my speakers or ear drums if anything else were playing.

I own the same planer since it was new nearly 30 years ago. Unfortunately it was completely submerged due to my basement workshop flooding out from hurricane Ida last September. The cast iron bed was left completely rusted over with a "lovely" orange patina. Both drive motors however, survived with no ill effects. My solution to dealing with the rust was to use a rotary wire steel brush installed in my electric drill to great success anywhere there was rust present (including any bolts and gears). The cast iron surface was restored to a shiney finish. I then applied a coating of wooden floor paste wax over the surface which does double duty as both a prophylactic against rust issues in the future and also leaves the surface less frictionally resistant (more slippery) to any boards passing through the planer. As there was a considerable amount of rust dust left inside the planer I used an air hose to blow this residual dust away all the while wearing a dust mask to protect my lungs throughout the entire procedure.

Any chance you could send me a picture of the tag on the motor? I’m trying to mount my M5990 planer on a “power stand” and need to get the correct motor. I can send you my email address. Thank!

SUCH A EXCELLENT VIDEO

I bought a Beaumont KMG variable speed 2 hp. Best grinder ever! Pricey? Yes. Worth every penny? Yes, and then some! Not diggin the stand and the studs are studs...not nuts. Informative vid.

You’ll find the SSmith ProPlaner is excellent. I’d say it can’t be beat. 👍👍🤜🤛

I’m willing to take on some special projects for those interested. Maybe a restoration or blade conditioning… I’m pretty confidant I can remediate just about any blade at this point. Thoughts? Message me with your ideas!!!

The music was repetitive making it annoying. At least turn it off when you are speaking.

Your wheel is on backwards

what was the lead time ? ordered to receive ?

Nice channel. 😀 You deserve more views! Why don’t you use PromoSM!!? Lot’s of channels are using it to promote their videos!

Regarding the DC - if you remove the shroud/hood and beat it with a stick a few times then throw it in the washing machine (sans belt!) and caulk and/or weatherstrip the necessary places where pieces meet parts, you’ll notice much improved suction. I wash the hood every so often - when the suction noticeably begins to lessen. Remove the filter etc outside or you’ll have a hellofa lot of sawdust here there and everywhere!

Excellent SSmith find and cleanup!👍👍 Get the SSmith planer dust chute upgrade and you have indeed the best 12” planer made. With SSmith’s conical disk, knife sharpening jig and their knife setting dial indicator you can sharpen, and set (to the thousandths) your planar knives. The sharpening jig/conical disk work with jointer knives too. Nice well done video!

Dude thank you. Just got my unit and cannot believe that it doesn't come with instructions. Anyways tried to build this over the weekend, and came close and you have filled in a couple of key pieces on the swivel. THANKS AGAIN.

How’s this grinder working for you so far? Thanks

Ameribrade should pay you for this.

Not sure why you spend 13 minutes on the pedestal / base and 37 seconds on all the attachments... but thanks! Great product once you figure it out.

thanks for sharing the video. tremendous help.

I bet you that felt liberating!

You've already heard from enough people about the dust chute. Yes, the Jet DC will move more air, but then you are going to have to deal with a 4" hose. Also, you'll find that DC3300 will work better if you don't plug the ports. They do need to have something plugged into them otherwise the air will take the path of least resistance. I suggest running a hose to the tool and have the floor wand attached to another and the third port plugged. That little extra airflow will allow the impeller to run at its optimal speed. Glad to see that this survived its time in the waterworks! Scott

I was with you right up until the garden hose. Hope this all works out for you. Scott

What kind of plug is that using?

My first thought when I saw you putting wood into was "sharpen the blades". William Ng has a good method. Sharp blades allow a woodworking machine live up to its potential.

Huge help with this video!

Great find. The dust collector shroud on my unit works great with a 2 inch adapter and a 4 inch hose going to a 14 inch Shop Fox. If you remove the blades you will need the blade gauge in order to re-install them. I just bought both the blade gauge and dust shroud from Shopsmith in the last couple months with no problem.

Thanks for sharing. Yeah, you're missing the dust collection shroud and elbow, and it works great with good dust collector, and not many consider the SS dust collector a good one.

Buy land, cut trees, use planer, build house in woods!

Dry shave.... made me cringe. Rockin' beard though, shame too get rid of it.

If you go on Ameribrades RUclips page they have a step by step video on the full assembly. Why print instructions when there’s a video showing you.

This Dude is really good! Very clear on his instructions. I think I could put this together with the help of this video. If not I'm contacting him! I just want to know how he figured out where the pieces that had no instructions went. Sharp guy! Great presentation.

I have a 16k you can use... let’s get crazy...

What a great video! Thanks for being understanding about the backordered items. Can't wait to see your assembly video. We'll have to send people to your channel to see how well you've documented the process.

0:20 that would be me asking... holy mother of god that is the king of belt grinders... ok I know nothing about belt grinders but that looks awesome
