Hi thanks for sharing. I have one of these and they are very useful. My observations on it are: 1 I use a machine wax on the plates, it keeps them slippery and the wood does not get stuck and cause the burn marks; also it stops the build up of resins from the wood, causing the same sticking problem. Dry silicon spray also works well. At a push, furniture polish does the job too, but you have to keep applying it. 2 Definitely get the dust extraction sorted - it is worth the effort and there are many videos showing how to make a simple cyclonic extractor, apart from keeping the air clear it will help prevent sawdust depressing the wood surface - or building up under it,which also causes sticking. 3 You can use the planer as a jointer - the extra width is handy. There are videos showing how to do this too, but basically you use a long flat board with a lip that catches the end of the piece. Then you shim the wood on this board so that is as level as possible and does not rock about. Then put it through the planer until it is flat, then you don't need the board for the other side. 4 You can adjust the measuring gauge, but I never use it and prefer to use a vernier, as you did. You may know already all of the above, so I'm not teaching you to suck eggs, just my findings. I had a different brand name for your other machine, it was Chinese rubbish made for the 'hobby' market and I was never happy with it. Buy cheap, pay twice.
Thanks very much for your input - it's appreciated. I hope maybe other viewers will also benefit from your thoughts, experiences, observations. I would have thought that waxing the plates wouldn't be necessary for a brand new planer but I'll look into it. I admit the idea makes sense. I do have another similar jobsite planer, an old Ryobi AP10 (I think) that has rollers instead of plates that machine has been used and abused for at least 18 years in the family, had to replace knives, bearings, etc. but that NEVER had a board stuck for one second in that. Again thank you and thanks for watching
@@parklandworx That's what I first thought - nice shiney new plates, but no after 4 pieces it began to stick - maybe resins in the wood; after a quick polish good as new, rinse and repeat. You're welcome.
I own two dewalts the dw733 and the much finer Italian made d27300. There’s a few good mods that make this machine much better. Adding a wixey Digital readout is the best I have done.
This is so funny. I have the same Scheppach planer/joiner and just bought the DeWalt because I wasn't happy with the planer of the Scheppach. To be honest the joiner fence is horrible so I built my own fence from plans here on YT and it will solely be a joiner from here forward.
Thanks for the feedback. By now I know that even the Dewalt can loose the enthusiasm for work once it's blades get dull - but I guess that's true for all of them.
Thanks for sharing your video. I wanted to see the machine working and you helped me with that. A little feedback for you, though: with a proper suction system and a cleaner working surface, you'd probably have had better results. Not advisable to accumulate so many chips. Also, you can calibrate the in-feed and out-feed tables to avoid those marks.
I have the same model Scheppach, and I have used it probably 5-6 times, replaced the blades 3 times as they blunt straight away. It has been in the back of the garage ever since, I would be ashamed to sell it on. I would love to get the Dewalt.
Először nem tudtam, mi a fura az akcentusban, aztán megláttam a sörösdobozt :D A beszéd nagyon halk a gyalu működéséhez képest, ezen majd próbálj kicsit javítani a jövőben. Köszi a tesztet, hasznos volt!
@@parklandworx nyilván nem titok, csak nem számítottam rá, mikor kattintottam. köszi a tesztet amúgy, mivel EU-n kívül nem árulják ezt a cuccot (nálunk meg az amerikai verziókat), eléggé hiánypótló anyag.
The marks depend on the chips accumulated inside the machine. Planes need a good mandatory suction not only for the health of the operator but also for the quality of the work.
Nice video, thanks for the review. However, you really need to fix the way you are recording audio, I was like a DJ when watching this, with my hands on the volume control...
The Dewalt is a reliable, powerful, machine that you can count on and into which you can feed whatever wood you want and the Scheppach combo is a hobby category underpowered, week little toy that I would only use for small, thin pieces of soft wood. The DeWalt is a planer, not a jointer though....
With all this praise this makses the other planer/jointer you had on the table look pretty bad. Everyone assumes that theres a reason for replacement. =)
Hi, I have a few questions. I need advice. I am considering the purchase of Dewalt DW733 (power 1800W) and DWE7485 (power 1850W). I have a Fieldmann 4020Bi generator available (max power 2000W, constant power 1600W). Will it be up and running and work with that generator? Nothing from Dewalt has a softstart. Thank you very much
You can always add a soft starter to anything. However I think your generator is rather weak for this application. If you want it to run smooth you need a constant power supply with az least+25% buffer.

That's some aggressive cuts in oak for that little machine. Did it without a hitch!! Impressive 👍
Not even oak but even harder wood: wattle / acacia :)

I like how you talk about your jointer as if it was a planer ....
It's also a planer

Thanks for the review very helpful but personally I would scrape the paint off first.

Good stuff, how low do you lower the head as it touches the wood?
Just word of caution when you plane used wood invest in small metal detector to ensure there are zero nails
I PERSONALLY WOULD HAVE NOT PLANED THAT TIMBER. HAS LOTS OF CHARACTER AND WOULD LOOKED great as a set of planters

6k views, and noone toke the time to give this guy a like...
Nope not when you call it a "thicknesser"

Thank you for the feedback, in my next video I'll be showing and testing my new microphone set ;)
Those boards are too pretty to plane ,they would look great to put on a wall
Good video, How does the Dewalt DW733 compare with the Scheppach combo unit?

I can use it with paint on the wood ?
Just got one , never use before.
Will the paint damage the tool?
No worries, if it's just paint it won't damage your knives
Yes and no, depending on paint like a latex gets super gummy and can accumulate on blades

These are max load figures. When you avoid extreme heavy use of the machines you should be fine.
Vagány, hasonlót tervezek én is vásárolni :)
i bought Dewalt 733 and i dont know how leveling two or more pieces with thickness and size defferent .. any 1 help me plz
Please formulate your question better, I'm not sure what you're asking

@@peterkiszel6991 ok, thanks for the question, you just gave me a great idea for the next video
Volume is Way toooo low, can't hear you!!
Turn it up :)
if you say its quite machine you must be completely deaf
listing to this guy praising this rather poor quality machine, i would expect ha may have been a dewalt stuge to promote the device for heafty fee
Thicknesser? So a machinethat makes wood thicker?
Go bad school, stop drinking soy
Dude... it's not thickener, but a thicknesser :D
Damn u just made urself look plain dumb 🤦♂️
In the UK these are also called Thicknessers. Maybe next time think a little before you write a comment
