Smooth Surfaces Quickly
A planer is a tool used to smooth or level wooden surfaces by shaving off thin layers of material. It is essential for refinishing doors, floors, or furniture.
To use a planer, adjust the blade depth for a light cut and move the tool steadily across the wood grain. Avoid pressing too hard to prevent gouging. Planers save time compared to sanding and produce consistent, smooth results, giving a professional finish to renovation projects.
