My bench is comprised of two palettes. (bad gor my back).
Today I cut two 2400mm furniture boards lengthways with my new Erbauer ERB690CSWplunge saw. It is pretty good but despite triple checking my measurements, the two resultant strips were too wide.
I had had to cut them in two sections because the tracks are only 1400mm max.
I hand-planed out imperfections but they were still up to 8mm too wide. They are made of coated chipboard. :(
I have decided to bite the bullet and look for an electric plane. It doesn't need to be cordless but I do not want to pay more than I need to do the jobs I have ahead of me.
I have checked all the reviews. It seems the Erbauer EHP 1050 at £59.98 from Screwfix will do the job.
As I always get good advice here, I would be grateful for your input.
TIA
Alan
