Creating Bevel With Power Planer

Hi, this is Jon on behalf of Expert Village. In this video clip, I will be showing you how to make a bevel or a radius. On some projects you might want a bevel or a radius to give the edge a nice finished look. Using our planer to create a bevel, we are going to hold our planer at an angle whatever angle we desire and we are going to make about 4 or 5 passes just bringing down that edge. As you can see, that has taken that down and it will have a nice finished appearance on that edge. For a rounded edge, we are going to make a series of cuts turning the planer as we go. This is going to start to create that radius. Now you will probably want to come back and clean this up with a little bit of sandpaper.
