I am starting off the new year by using my discount second hand tools to try and cobble together a nice birthday present for my wife. Materials include water damaged maple, warped walnut, and spider-infested purple heart. Wish me luck.

came here to say this. I, unfortunately, learned this from experience. no injuries, but more excitement than I was looking for that day!

Thank you, and no worries. I've seen the warnings, and I'm fully aware that my planer is garbage anyway lol
