I got an email from Oliver that said they were having trouble getting Byrd to ship cutterheads in a timely fashion, so they reworked the 10044 a little and put their own HCX cutter in it. They have also added some features: it is now a full 13 inches wide in capacity and has two feed rates. The model number is 10045 and it is the same price as the old one.

@@Hybridog thanks for the update! That would explain why supply was sketchy and these were hard to find. I like all the upgrades. Hopefully the Oliver cutter head is as good as the Byrd. I like that they kept it a helix and didn’t cheap out to a segmented cutter head. So are you getting one? If you do, check back here and let me know your thoughts.

@@frankvucolo6249 Im buying the 10045 in late October (Birthday present) as an upgrade from my old harbor freight "good enough" planer. I finally might have skills enough to where this would make a difference. I'll let y'all know how it doers with maple, ash, and poplar (and I have a nasty Wenge flitch I need to mill for box making for Christmas).

Your two videos are outstanding. Very little in the way of other serious videos on this planer while there are 1,000s on the DW735. Great explanations, demonstrations and presentation. I am planning a smaller shop in about a year and this video sealed my decision on choice of thickness planer. Oliver should send you $78,000. Thanks.

After about a year of considering on planer choice, this is the video that did it for me. It's finally time to stop going into work for their planer! Excellent review. I would consider cutting the bass frequencies and some sort of a volume limiter if that's something within your production toolset. The bass was a bit boomy/farty/whatever the kids are calling it. Additionally, when you were running the planer with the dust collection the volume level broke one of the cats and had me needing to make a volume adjustment. Not a big deal, if not, as broken cats are always funny. Thanks for this video.

Thanks for watching, ibex. That’s funny! Sorry I broke the cat. I ordered a wireless lapel mic. Maybe that will help. I’ll have to work on my audio editing next. I’m clueless. But so glad you found the video helpful.

I’ve had a sawmill for about three years now, and I’ve saved up a good bit of lumber for random projects. I got my Oliver planer about a month ago, and it’s Been awesome so far.

Good luck to you, DJ. Hope you find one in stock without too much trouble. But if not, it’s worth the wait! Thanks for watching.

I won't begin to tell you what I occasionally forget to do in the shop. Must be a Jersey kid thing.
