Thank you ! I used the first version for years and it was very helpful in the beginning.

Did we ever get an update ?

No shift key on my phone.

I remember when you had to do this with pen and paper.

It will not let me download it?? I am running on windows. Any help would be awesome. Thank you.

Not sure if you talk like that or the video is playing fast. Your speech is too fast to understand. I thought it was me. So I had another watch video. They said “without my asking “. They could not understand the fast speech.

When your Ryobi planer ( or any planer) leaves a ridge due to a nic in blade. Simply run board thru planer again WITHOUT changing depth of cuts. Just move board a bit left or right to let planer cut off the ridge only.

This is absolutely brilliant. Thank you for creating this, it is a joy to use. Would it be possible to add a feature where you can dictate which strips you flip? Not just every other strip? This way you could play with the random and chaos pattern looks as well. I only have a couple of hours in using the program so far, if this feature is already included, please let me know. Cheers and Happy New Year!

Disregard my post below. My error for not following the instruction video closely . I am very satisfied with the software and would recommend it to everyone. Don't be in a rush like I was, follow the instruction video.

I ordered a copy of Cutting Board Designer for Windows and have had a problem with it. If anyone has a copy of this software and has a problem trying to make slices from a panel, please share it. I emailed product support and have never received a solution.

What are all the power tools you are using?

Thank you for the information. As a woodworker for over 50 years and working with thickness planers from 12 inch to 24 inch and from 3 hp to 7 1/2 hp, they all produce snipe of some sort. they also leave what I call ripples from the cutterhead. This can also be seen with jointers. Being a Fine woodworker and making quality furniture, we were all taught how to use hand planes. As long as the boards that I am planing are not longer than 60 inches, I use hand planes to smooth the surface, which removes all imperfections from the wood surface. This is something that the average woodworker should learn how to do. I suggest those interested to watch some of Rob Cosman‘s videos which goes into this subject in detail. In conclusion, use scraps of wood ahead and behind the wood that you are planning and your snipe is virtually eliminated. Machines only reduce the amount of labor, but cannot replace the skillful hands of a fine woodworker.

Nice work 👍👍

Love that sound from them. :). And their “bark” as i call it. :)

Any updates?

could you slow down when talking or are you in a race

Some parts of the construction look very similar to my dewalt 734. Anyways, like my grandpa always said. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. He been right more times than I can count. Long live Ryobi!

my neighbors are going to LOVE me when I get one of these for my open air backyard workshop...

you are not really comparing like for like, apples to apples when you are comparing the $35 shelix cutter heads to the laguna.... the shelix come in a box of 10 yet there are 56 cutters so to replace all of them.... yep $210

if there was a helical cuttere replacement for your ryobi you would have been better off with that than a whole new planer...

USE EDGE BROWSER. Chrome didn’t work for me but edge did. Awesome🎉

The download link isn't working

Hi Jay, first of all thank you so much for this program. I only cant figure out how to get to see the end grain model. It doesnt show up when I open the program or if i add layers. Can you help me with this? Keep up the good work!

There are different grades of carbide... Because carbide is so hard, it's also very brittle so nicks and chips are common in the cheaper grades.......I love the fact that you talk fast and move right along so I don't get bored. Well done!

Thank you for this video! Really impressed with the Ryobi! Would you still recommend the Ryobi, or some other "budget" planer? Or should one save up for a unit with helical cutters?

Your robins are ugly af

thank you for sharing all this work and effort. exemplary philosophy coming from you.

Very cool! Thank you! 😀👍

I just sent you a few dollars and attempted to DL the program, the DL link does NOT work.

As of mid April 2022 Laguna hasn't solved the cutterhead issue and is not shipping any units. Laguna CS coordinated the return of my planer to Woodcraft, who provide a full refund and $100 off an Oliver Shelical planer.

website is broken, I can't download anything

Don't you just wish every software writer did this for their community! Great job, Jay!

Outstanding review! Subbed!

It's been 2 months now do you have any update on a new (working) unit?

Hi Jay, we are really sorry you had to experience these issues. We are currently working with our factory to solve this problem immediately so that we can get back to the quality our customers deserve. If you have any questions, please contact our customer service here: lagunatools.com/resources/customer-service/ Thank you.

Did Laguna replace it? Any updates on its performance?

I haven't heard anything good about that Laguna planer, especially considering the bloated price on it.

Great comparison vid. I really want the PX12, and was about to purchase, then started hearing about this issue. I called Laguna today to find out what's going on. I was really impressed by how they handled the call. Mad respect for this company. I was told the issues you're seeing has so far been limited to the production of units for the Black Friday sales period as there have been no reports of this issue on production runs previous to and after. They also informed me they are now testing every PX12 before sending em out. Nevertheless, Im looking for a backup model in case they dont sort this problem out. Curious why picked the PX12 and what were the other models you seriously considered?

Thanks for making this vid I found to baby birds on the ground and thanks to you I now know they are robins!

I was messing with a bird outside XD

uffda i showed this clip to my fledgling robin and he freaked out, hid underneath my arm and was squeaking. Poor guy, that robin must have been warning of a predator in its call.

I have a baby robin that is about 2 weeks old and he or she will not take food properly

Was a beautiful close up =)
