Dewalt thicknesser

[bubbabear]

I would really like a dewalt dw734 thicknesser, I had a good look over 1 in home depot and it looked real well made and with 3 disposable knives its easy to replace blades and I heard it gives a great finish, but where can i get 1? anybody know.

P.s. they are too heavy to carry on to the plane.

I'm quite certain they're not available in the UK - for whatever reason?! You'd have to import one :? or, keep an eye on eBay and perhaps you'd get lucky and find someone over here who's previously imported and is now looking to sell.

My understanding is that they're just as noisy as all the other portable thicknessers. My main concern though would be in obtaining spare blades - there are other 13in thicknessers around but, I'm not certain whether their blades would be compatible with this DeWalt model. You certainly wouldn't want to have to pay to import a set, each time!

Perhaps this is something that Doug at Cutting Solutions could assist with?
