How I Turned My Thickness Planer Into a Missile Launch Machine - Better Ways To Defeat Snipe!
Channel: Small Workshop Guy
Date: 2019-05-09

Thickness Planer Kickback is a real possibility and not something you want to experience.  In trying to eliminate Snipe, I did several things wrong.  

In this video, I admit my mistakes and discuss what I should have done to eliminate snipe.  I was very lucky not to break a rib, or have an ear ripped off or worse take a blow in the head and enter my after-life stage.  Learn from my mistakes!
