Avoiding a Tear Out When Using Hand Held Power Planer

Rob McMahon with Expert Village. One nice thing about a power planer is that it works on ingrain. Now we are going to resquare this rounded end here. What you want to do is avoid the tear out of the ingrain. When you are coming in this direction, this last little area is going to want to blow out, so we will take it to full depth first. One of the reasons why it hasn’t done any tearing out yet is because it was a rounded edge. So as I get closer to it, I am going to want to start coming back the other way. Now to finish it, you keep reversing from one side coming at it from the outside and you won’t lose the end.
