Thanks for watching!
Straight to the point, learnt a lot in 11 mins, no BS. Thanks Matt. Purchased the 18 volt cordless today ands works a treat.
Do you still use this 18v tool today ? How was the build quality
Thank you very much. Retired and trying to occupy time with things I always thought of doing but never had the time. Saw a planer on sale and before buying, thought I would educate myself on the technics. You gave me a good idea on how to handle one. The do's and don'ts. Your video was excellent in that you explained and followed up with a demonstration of what you meant. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for a short simple video on the use of this tool, no long rambling tangents. Just the information that's useful, so am subscribing to your channel.👍
Hey! Thanks for subscribing! And thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it!
Awesome! I just bought that same planer the other day to use on our interior doors. Really easy to use, but I was wondering why the edges weren’t coming out even. You explained everything. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. I just bought the planner you demonstrated as I have some door edges I need to clean up a bit and decided that after using a block plane for the last 30 years I deserve an electric planner. When I opened the box I saw the guide and got a little confused about how it worked. I'm glad you covered this in the video or else I would have had to break a long standing tradition of not reading the manual.
ha ha ha, welcome to the not reading the manual club.
Man, this video was crazy informative!!! Thank you for the contribution, I'm sure it's helped alot of people like myself that were confused gouging wood and misusing the tool. Like the saying goes "You don't know what you don't know, so start learning".
I’m a newbie to woodworking, and basically learning on my own. I’ve had this planner for a couple years now because I couldn’t find the right information to use it properly. This is hands down the best video I’ve come across on how to use this planner. Thank you for such detailed information. Now I’m going to go try it out.. lol. Wish me luck 🍀
Good luck and thanks for watching!
Great video!
I run a strong magnet over the wood first, it helps find any hidden nails - top tip, you’re welcome 👍
I run a strong nail over the wood too, trying to find any hidden magnets- it must work because I have yet to find any magnets in the wood.
I just carry a few extra blades for every job site , nothing worse than being caught pants down in the middle of nowhere without an extra blade
@@BeachsideHank 🤣
This was actually a really awesome how to video !! Thank you for taking the time to make a detailed video on the proper use of a hand planer!
What a great demo and teacher! Now I know how to use a planer. I have several drawers and doors I need to plane down. You explained it so well. Thanks for no music, such joy!
Glad to see that Ryobi makes one. I'm tired of Dewalt prices for tools made in China.
Tip - for reclaimed pallet wood - tap the wood out using a piece of wood and hammer.
Then use an Airlocker Reverse Nail Gun with compressor to knock out all the nails fast from any piece of wood.
Such a time saver!
This helped me a lot. Getting a gift for my sister's husband and was not sure if hand planers were any good. I have only ever used a large table planer before. Great results it looks like if you know how to use it. Appreciate it, man!
Great video! I used mine and made the mistakes you pointed out, now I know better. Can you do a tutorial on flattening table top with uneven boards?
Thank you. I did buy a similar type of planer but a different manufacturer. Wanted a planer 101 video and you fit the bill with your tips and easy to understand steps. Great video without wasting time on the fluff.
I just bought a corded model like yours.You saved me a ton of reading and gave some great tips to a first time user.
"EXCELLENT Tutorial" by a superb instructor! Well done good sir, well done ! I just purchased a new HD Planer to turn a massive 2" thick slab of Douglas Fir into a gorgeous Sofa Table. The quality of this instruction will help greatly to avert any potential damage through my ignorance, which has been greatly mitigated thanks to your video.
Just received this planer for Xmas. This video was very helpful. No fluff, no bull, just the ins and outs on how to use it. Well done.
This was excellent! I'm a beginner and just bought the ryobi cordless. Wanted to learn everything I could before using. Your details and demonstration showed me just what I needed to know. Thank you!
Most Americans say rye-oh-bee. A slightly better way is ree-oh-bee. The correct, Japanese way is lee-oh-bee, where the lee-oh sound is kind of ran together as one syllable. Hard to explain, so just say ree-oh-bee. Great, to the point video!
Thanks for making this video! I now feel more comfortable and safe knowing what the parts do and the safest practices.
Was hoping to see you try the planer on a wide surface. Thinking about resurfacing cabinets. 18" wide.
Thank you. Your video helps. I bought my first Planer. One of the joists on my floating deck is arching so that's my project. Your video explains every part of the tool and shows you how to use it properly to get the best result.
Great video. You've got a gift for teaching this stuff.
Thank you so much. I seen your video before buying one and now I'm waiting on my husband to bring mine home. I can honestly say after 5 videos yours is the one that gets to the subject more quickly.
I was just saying in another video how much I wanted to look at that electric hand planer and I never saw it before and then I caught this video on how to use it. I'm so excited. That is the next thing on my Home Depot list. Not to mention that I just hung up drywall and I wish I saw your video beforehand because you gave me a lot to think about. Not that it didn't come out good hahaha
Really helpful thank you. I first started watching some aussie who didn't show all the basics like you did such as showing how to plane from the middle of the work piece etc.
Someone lost one of these at the pawnshop barely used… wanted to know how to use it!! Awesome vid!! Thanks going back to get it for $40
Your a life saver. I have been putting off getting a planner because I wont use it much but you have shown me what it could be used for besides planning a door. Thank you.
Really enjoyed your simple and easy to understand instructions and thorough examples. Great video !
Good video. But I have some suggested tweaks. From my experience, if I want to take off material in the center area of a board, I mark the start and end points on the board and set the planer depth knob to 0 when I start a pass and as I approach the start mark I start turning the depth adjustment a bit to begin taking out material. When I approach the end mark I start turning the depth knob towards 0 so by time I reach the end mark I am at 0. It takes a few passes and maybe a little practice on some scrap lumber but I find this easier and less chance of taking off too much material at the starting area by dropping the planer down mid-stream of the area that needs material removal.
I also don't find myself needing to raise the planer up at the end of a run as suggested if I put pressure at the back end of the planer as you suggested but keep the pressure on as I come to the end of the run. I find if you don't time the going upwards just right, you might come up too early and then miss taking off material at the end.
Good straightforward instruction , I like how you don't get hypnotized by the sound of your own voice .. I just subscribed
I liked what I saw, short and to the point. Reason for watching is I have a project where I have to use narrower pieces of board than what is sold. Also another excuse to get a useful tool. Thanks.
Thanks. I have the Ryobi One version of that planer.
Just ordered one of these Ryobi planers after watching this very informative video. Thank you.
This was a great video. My husband does allot of hand planed sassafras boat paddles and is getting wore out using hand planes. Might show him this video!!
I'm looking to get one to trim some door widths. Thanks for the video!
Great video - thank you. Never knew about the groove. Good tips.
Well done straight to the point will be my first time using one tomorrow 👍🏾 thanks I learnt alot
Man this is a fantastic video, straight to the point and demonstration every time
The Ryobi 18 V is exactly the same without a cord. Excellent
Excellent tutorial! Explains everything plain and simple! Thank you
Plane and simple😂😂
I used this for my warped subfloor before I installed hardwood flooring. This tool saved my life :)
How did you go about the wider floor with planer, overlap, just eye it?
This is the best video I've seen on how to use a plane i baught a second hand plane and it was different from my old plane and i couldn't get a manual but you're video covered everything i needed from the kick plate to the attachments realy helpful!
Thank you so much!!! Its a shame that the actual company that makes the tool doesn't have a video up like this
Very good explanation sir; thank you
Thank you. Just what I was looking for!
Excellent! All instruction, no rambling on between tips. I subscribed immediately.
Here I'm going to tell you what I think of this video... and I'm going to do that right now. Love that part of your videos. Very good video, detailed, etc. I would like an electric planer but I don't plane things that much.
Really learned how to use my Ryobi planer. Thank you for a very educational video and clear explanation.
thank you very much for your clear demo
Thank you! We bought a different brand but no instructions how to use, which i need since I've never used one before! I saw Ben using a big industrial one on Home Town and i just had to have one but can't afford what he has lol
Great video: concise, informative, clear, simple. Thanks. Just subscribed.
Loved the way you explained and demonstrated
EXCELLENT VID - I learned a lot! THANK YOU!
I appreciate the tutorial, very helpful!
Thanks for doing this, I've been thinking about buying one and you answered a lot of my questions. thanks for sharing.ECF
Thank you for covering all the material i had questions on. I'm so excited to use this thing
😀
good video, all applies to cordless as well.
extremely helpful. thank you!
Brilliant easy to follow video, Thank You from Chris in the UK...
Thanks for the vid man! Have used this planet multiple times and it’s great (at least in the short term) and I just needed a quick refresher on the operation.
This was great. I love how you explain and then show what you're talking about. This can't take the place of a bigger planet, can it? For bigger pieces?
Excellent instructional video. No ifs, ands or buts. Thanks!
What a terrific teacher you are! Thanks.
Great tips! I’ve not worked with an electric hand planer before, but now I’m considering adding it to my collection of tools.
I have the same looking jack plane!!
Very good tips. Thanks
Super helpful! Thank you!
Excellent review. Thanks!
Thank you for this video. Your explanation of the hand planner was on point and direct. I appreciate it and learned so much. Ryobi’s manual for this tool leaves a lot to be desired. I would have had to learn by trial and error exactly what Ryobi means by pushing the tool down the wood in a “slow” manner, for example. It was good to see the tool in action. Anyway, loved the video and subscribed to your channel. Best regards.
I agree: great USEFUL video. But how do you pronounce Ryobi?
I just began woodworking and using Ryobi tools. I 100% agree with what you said about their manuals. TH-cam videos from people like this have been far more helpful.
Thank you for the vid - very useful for beginners.
Thank you so much for the info. I've been wanting to use a planer just not sure if I would do any good but I'm gonna try now. Super informative 👌
Thanx for the demo on your Grand dad's planer I have a smaller version, I should of bought a bigger version, which would have saved me the 139.00 on the Ryobi 😅
Thanks for the video, but what’s the best approach for planing a wider face service, more than the width of the planer blade where you want an even planed surface all across the face? You’re video shows the same info most other similar TH-cam videos show on this subject. Would like to see a larger surface bring planed and demonstrated.
Same video request here....
Use a pencil to mark high places, plane said marks removing high places, checking with a long straight edge such as a four foot level, mark high spots again. Repeat until surface is flat
Ty so much. U have helped me greatly. Now to get to work
Thank you! I have an old Ryobi (blue); it is battery powdered. I have have an electric one too--a Bausch. I learned a lot. Please do post a video on changing he blades.
This video was very helpful, thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Very helpful. Thanks for sharing 👍
good info mate, thanks very much
This one of the best Video on how to use a planer. Thank you so much
Awesome to hear! Hope it helps out, Marcel! Thanks for watching!
Very informative thank you .
Thank you for the info. I liked it. it was useful for me.
Really nice explanation. WELL DONE! Thank you.
straight to the point informative no bla bla ...i like this kind of vdos
I've never used one but I've always wanted one. Good tips & anyone can practice on their scrap pieces of wood until they get the hang of it or buy couple cheap 2x4 studs to practice on. Ryobi is pretty good from what I hear. There's nothing wrong going with some of your tools cheaper than others. Especially if you don't necessarily use that tool all the time. Often it's best to get the cheaper brands in that case. But ya know it's also good to look up reviews on TH-cam for tools rather than reading reviews on website. Now I'm definitely interested in this planer! I have no idea about Ryobi's line of battery operated tools though. Very interested in some of them as well. Love the color of Ryobi tools!
Hey Kristy! Great to hear the video inspired you. I love Ryobi tools. They are perfect for a home owner that dabbles in DIY. Thanks for watching!
Very informative explanation and you got the point and showed us what you were talking about. I have this exact planer. I can read the manual, but manuals don't absorb as much as watching something show me how to use something. So thank you very much for your video. Thumbs up and new sub here.
Awesome! Thank you. I just found a kickass commercial version on Facebook Marketplace. I'm abt to work on a stack of live edge that's been drying in my back yard. :)
Great video, to the point and clear. Very instructive and covers safety aspects. Thank you.
Great to hear! Hope the video helps. Thanks for watching!
Good video, definitely learned a bit. Looking to get and use one to hand plane some slabs I cut with my chainsaw, and they are definitely bumpy. If I wanted to take all those high spots down first, would going over it with 0 first be the way, or just start on the first adjustment, and go from there?
Really helpful video; thank you for posting this! :)
Thanks brother you made it easy.keep up the great work. I still have all my fingers.
This is very helpful. Thank you
Awesome explanation on how to use the electric hand planer! Wish you would show how to use more tools! I am a beginner and would like to learn as much as possible about the tools I have purchased. I have been purchasing Ryobi tools such as the portable table saw, mitre saw, orbital sander, driver, drill, etc. Would LOVE to know all the tricks! You were absolutely FANTASTIC and thorough with the explanations. THANK YOU!
Thank you for the great information. I learned so much in the short time in this video.Great job!
excellent descriptions!!!!
Thank you for sharing
Fantastic - thank you!
What an excellent video! So good. Informative, you gave examples, camera work was great. Thanks so much.
Great video! I feel confident planing my doors that won't shut now!
Good luck & thanks for watching! 😃
The door now shuts, looks great, and my fiance is happy 😊

Excellent video man. Straight to the point. Subbing.
