A while back I bought planer like the one below for $80 from someone that picked it up at an estate auction. Finally got to use it the other night for the first time. Worked well, but as the wood exits the back side, it's rubbing on the casting of the carriage and hangs the wood up as it's being pulled through.
Didn't see any adjustments to lower the blade and rollers, so was considering just grinding that casting down 1/32" - 1/16" on the back side to give it some relief. Any other suggestions?
