I am planning to purchase the DW735 planer. After watching a youtube demo on building a workbench top, 6 2×4’s were glued together and passed through the planer, which seemed to do a good job. My concern is whether this is too much of a load (weight) for the DW735 to handle. It took two guys to handle the feed and exit.
Thanks,

A 2×4 is not to much for this to handle. It’s a great planner. I haven’t seen the video but my guess is they had two people at the end to avoid snipe. I used my planer about a month ago on a piece of oak. I wish I had another had to help keep the board straight as it existed. You can get rollers and more to assist, i just didn’t have them at the time.
