The World’s First One-Handed Cordless Planer
We all love doors that close quickly and flat, smooth floors. We also love lightweight cordless tools that make our lives easier. Now, Bosch has created a new solution to all of these by introducing the first-ever 12-volt hand planer. With just one hand, you can use all the power you expect from professional tools in a convenient small machine.
A Plane In The Neck
You are sorely missing out if you do not have a cordless planer yet. They are the best tool money can buy for shaving down sticky doors, flattening out beams and joists, and many other uses. They are easy to use and make light work of the most challenging tasks that could otherwise take an entire afternoon. Also, without the cord, you never need to worry about hitting a snag halfway through a pass.
Cut To The Chase
This new power planer has a cutting width of 2.2 inches, which is wide enough for all your basic needs. On top of that, it can cut up to .08″ in a single pass; that is more than a 1/16th of an inch! If you are making rabbet cuts, you can dig 0.7″ before hitting the tool’s body. This tiny titan can truly tackle it all.
Plain And Simple
If you have ever done building work, you know you do not always need to use a monstrous power planer. Floor joists, window frames, and many more tasks require flattening a single edge. This tool is undoubtedly the smallest cordless wood planer you have ever used. At just 3.3 pounds, it is about the same size and weight as a traditional manual hand planer, so it will already feel natural in your hand.
Power To The People
The minuscule size means the tool does not waste any battery power. With a compact 12-volt Bosch battery pack, you will have plenty of power for the light tasks you need to be done. A modern brushless motor uses the batteries efficiently, so you do not have to sacrifice any power. And with a top speed of 14,500 RPM, it will zip through your work in no time.
