Thanks for the review. I found one on Craig's List today and based, partially, on your review, I bought it for $300 (USD) with a stand. The previous owner also threw in a couple of sets of extra blades. I can't wait to try it out!
That’s an absolute bargain, congrats!
I’ve wanted a Dewalt DW733 Planer for months but was finding it hard to justify the price but today on EBay I found a great deal with 15% off what was already a competitive price, so I bought one from FFX for only £474.95 including free next day delivery. It was too good to miss and I’m looking forward to getting tomorrow.
Thanks for your review, it helped me make up my mind.
Absolute bargain! Congrats
I've also bought this from ffx. For some reason I can't wind down lower than 28mm and can't figure out why. I've not even put anything through it yet.
Nice review Jack! So glad you reviewed this... I've been thinking of getting one, but the noise was putting me off. My neighbours seem to tolerate my woodworking exploits, but I don't want to push it too far with them! Good to hear it in action - particularly with you shouting "IT'S SO LOUD!" as a useful reference!
In terms of reviews, would be cool to see a review of the DeWalt Router (DCW604). Also, I spent some of today trying to adjust my table saw riving knife (I have the DeWalt DWE7485 one that I think you have too) - so I'd certainly watch a video on setting up your table saw better - getting the blade parallel to the mitre tracks, getting the blade at 90 degrees etc. That might be a bit niche?!! But you'd definitely get one view!!
Hey Michael! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts! I'm glad to hear that the review was helpful for you. The noise is definitely a factor to consider with this thicknesser, but I find that good ear protection and considerate timing can help manage this with neighbours.
Your suggestion to review the DeWalt Router (DCW604) is a great idea, and as luck would have it, I do have access to one. I'll add that to my list of upcoming reviews.
As for your request on setting up the table saw better, that's not niche at all! Many of us face similar challenges when it comes to adjusting tools for optimal use. I'll certainly consider creating a tutorial video on setting up the DeWalt table saw and getting everything just right.
Do let me know if you have any other tools or topics you'd like to see covered. It's super helpful to hear!
Yeah id like this as well please haha
Thanks for the response! Good point about considerate timing with regards the neighbours. I'm never outside of office hours with noisy stuff, so it's reassuring to hear you say that. All the best, looking forward to your next video!
Nice review Jack. Not in the market anytime soon. I got 2 No 5 bench planes for this job. Merry Christmas. Take care & stay safe.
Very nice! Thanks Doug!
I've had this planer for over 20 years....no issues. Blades are easy to change & the machine is easy to use. Like all others....don't try to jam too much thru it....a couple of extra passes will give a better outcome.
20 years! God daym! That’s impressive 😁
@martinlepper4522- now that is the final word i needed to justify paying the extra! Talk about value for money wow 20 years! thanks and thank you to @sumeraybuilds
Wow! I was on the market for a quality thicknesser for my luthier studio and just bought this one. Now just I read your comment and got happier!
Hi there please do a review on the best mobile circular saw that comes with a reliable fence / guide system
I recently reviewed the Evolution saw track, I recomend checking that out as it's compatible with many circular saws and is very affordable.
I've just bought this and have an issue with the dust extraction cover, which DeWalt seem to have changed the design of. It now has three M4 screws (two at the top, one in the middle at the bottom) but the bottom one doesn't seem to line up properly. Maybe a stud would be better, which I've raised with DeWalt Support.
Everything else you've said, is true - although I haven't cut anything, yet!
It's an awesome machine, congrats!
Yes dust extract is badly designed, I cut the side mount position so I can hook it onto the screws rather than trying to get the tiny screws in place which invariably fall inside and have to be retrieved with a magnet.The extract does not work at all without suction.
@@nigelscoffield380 Dust extraction aside, mine kept tripping the RCDs when using it, so it ended up going back to the reseller and I got a full refund. What a shame :-(
I have one, for years, long enough and surfaced enough hardwood that I had to replace the drive chains and gears, and of course the knives.
It's a great bit of kit!
I'm here after looking at the Metabo330 planer which was the one I was after but has poor dust extraction and blade issues with the blade backing plates bending! I'm guessing this may be the answer if a bit more expensive. Good video fella 👍
You won’t regret it! And thanks 🙏
And for us yanks, that's 81-1/2 pounds. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I was a little disappointed after I bought mine. I didn't find the cut quality as good as I had expected and also the blade nick easily and have yet to find a way of sharpening them. Replacements blades are expensive. I'd much prefer to buy a more expensive thicknesser that utilised helix cutting blades such as the Axminster AT330ST.
Sorry to hear that!
Would like a video on use of the planer can’t find a useful one online and really struggling to get it to plane timber without having to push it thru as roller rarely grabs it.
I would but I have a long list of videos to get through (building a workshop atm!)
Im looking to buy it to use on some DIY projects, but the noise level might be a problem as I would work in a basement place in apartment block. Same with every breaker being a 16A, while these beast is 15A without soft-start. Ive learned that when I had connected my Metabo Miter (didnt modified it for soft-start then) and an old Einhell vac.
Yeah it’s undeniably very loud. If you’re using it in an apartment block then I hope you get on with your neighbours or don’t plan on using it too much. I use mine at the very end of the garden and still worry that I’m being too loud! Haha 😂
Thanks for a great review Mate. Waiting for mine to arrive from Amazon, I got it for £513..:>
Great decision! Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for review and advice . This is a something I am very interested in. Are your running it off a 20 amp or 15 amp circuit?
I'm just running this off a standard UK plug socket. 240v.
What about snipe?
How is the accuracy of cut? Is it consistant depth through out the whole surface of the board in all planes ?
What measuring decice did you use ?
Can you achieve perfect aligment of all 3 parts of the table ?
Otherwise, nice video.
Sorry for grammar mistakes , Iam not native speaker.
😂 all good questions and honestly it sounds like youve used one of these far more than me! I use this often and find it’s perfect for all my needs. Snipe, accuracy all good!
I just finished rebuilding a DW733 that I had bought used a couple of years ago. Quite a job getting a new belt on, but I think that I found a trick.
Any suggestion for making the cranking mechanism smoother or at least easier?
I have no idea… sorry!!
Thanks nice tool
Thanks! 🙏
Great video thankyou, it really helped me make my mind up (I bought it). I use a shop vac like yours and noticed you had a hose reducer, do you have a link to that hose reducer/adapter please?
On close inspection it looks like the one that comes on Dewalt Table saws, is that correct?
Yes it’s the one that’s included with the saw 😃 good luck with it!
@@sumeraybuilds excellent I already have it then 🎉
Do you guys think it is nice to have planer on top and thicknesser below like some other machines, or not really?
I'm not sure what you mean. If you mean is it nice to have both tools then I'd base it on space and budget.
A no nonsense review
Thanks, I try to make the style of reviews I personally enjoy.
I’ve had mine for a couple of years now. I find the extraction system frustrating, even with a large volume extractor. It tends to block up. Goodness knows how many times a session you must need to empty it.
I also find changing the blades a real fiddle.
I use it regularly but not really a fan…..just saying.
That's totally fair! It's useful to hear opinions from folks who've really put this through it's paces. I agree the dust extraction using my Henry did require a fair few 'clear outs' to keep up.
@@sumeraybuilds Have a big can vacuum on mine with 4” hose, copes well.
@sumeraybuilds is it really 330 mm cutting width? They market it as 317mm here in my country.
I thought it was 330mm, but I'd go with the manufactur website. I might have meausred it wrong.
Hello,
can anyone tell me where I can buy the suction device / suction nozzle? Does anyone have a link?
Unfortunately I can't find anything.
I would love to connect my extraction unit to the thickness planer.
You mean the dust extractor adapter? It should have come with one. If you’ve not got it you might be able to speak to Dewalt and get them to send/ sell you a spare
Shouldn't you plane/joint two sides first? I noticed in your video you fed in a really bowed plank. Do you have a jointer/planer as well could you make a video on that?
I don’t think there’s necessarily a right or wrong way to do it. Depends what you’re tweeting to achieve. In this instance I was just demonstrating how it works with different timbers I had lying around. I don’t have a joiner/ planer but plan to borrow them in order to continue with these reviews 😃
If you run a bowed plank through a thicknesser you just end up with a thinner bowed plank. The rollers pin it down flat while it's going through but then it just springs back. There's plenty of videos on UA-cam showing people jointing/planning it first before running it through the thicknesser. There are other videos showing how you can joint/plane using a thicknesser but you have to build a tray/jig first to pin the bowed wood into a static position to aquire the flat surface first before flipping it over then running it through normally.
a replacement drive belt for this costs close to £100, which is a ridiculous price for a plastic belt
I didn’t know that!
@@sumeraybuilds Drive belt cost me £12
Can you plane epoxy boards with it?
Yes :D
Does this come with the normal UK plug? Seems a silly question to ask.
Yes it does :)
@sumeraybuilds thanks for the reply! I've been thinking of getting one, only thing stopping me at the moment is the noise, I have mean neighbours :)
I used mined for maybe 20 minutes and completely burned out the motor.has this happened to anyone else
I’ve not experienced this. How much were you trying to remove from the timber at once?
@@sumeraybuilds less than half a mil
This has also happened to me after very little use and just 18months old (no I didn’t register the product). A new armature is a ridiculous price of £175 so I am going back to the retailer and try to get it fixed under the consumer rights act. It appears that there are quite a few people who have also suffered a burnt out motor 0:05
Same problema here in Brazil. First time it was repaired under warranty but it burnt again in little time of use. DeWalt should make a recall and solve, but seems not to worry about it. Well, I decided to never ever more buy anything from DeWalt.
Please check the label with serial number. If it says Type1, then it was made for US or European market, but if it says Type2, then you have a third world country product there unfortunately. DeWalt uses less quality materials in Type 2 models, aholes!
I just picked one of these up on clearance at Lowe’s for $350… couldn’t pass it up
That’s a great deal!
Interessante👍
😃
Hello. Brother❤.
please. Can you contribute to the success of a young man who lives in hardship? All I want from you. is to teach me. How can I put cylinders inside those 3-meter-long trees? Its width and height are 7 cm or 10 cm. I saw a lot of videos on UA-cam. I only liked your videos. Please teach me how to carve two blocks of wood. Then how to combine them in such a way that the line between the two woods disappears.
I’m not sure what you mean, can you clarify?
DeWalt are not that great, Makita Milwaukee hilti & festool are waaaaaay better
Fair enough, I’ve not used any others!
