| Thickness Planer | The opposite of a jointer, a thickness planer has a flat base and a cutting head on the top. The material is fed with power rollers through the cutting blades to remove small amounts of material until you have two flat and parallel faces. Features to look for in a thickness planer include: spring-loaded feed rollers, cranks to adjust the thickness, depth of cut indicator, and an infeed/outfeed extension table.
