DEWALT DW7351 Folding Table for DW735 Planer

Customer Reviews

Snipe Cure

2008-02-25
The extensions really make the Dewalt portable planer a top-notch tool. I had tried roller stands for the in-feed and out-feed, but was never satisfied with the amount of snipe until I added these. My only complaint is I think they should come standard with the planer.

DW7351 tables for DW735 Planer

2008-02-05
Great product, easy to install and remove. My only problem is that if the planer cost between $500 and $600 to purchase, these tables should already come with it. And you NEED them if you want to truly use your planer.

Help setting it up?

2008-01-25
I just received my tables so I can't write a report on how they function. However, I don't understand complaints about their price. I paid only $35 and don't think that's high for what I received. Also, I'd like to make a request -- some of you have mentioned various 'tweaks' you've used with your tables but stopped short of complete explanations of how to accomplish the respective set-ups. I'd really appreciate any detailed info since this is my very first plane.
Thanks!

A must-have for most

2008-01-20
As has been said elsewhere, they're a must-have unless you're building a dedicated workstation. But if you were going to go through that kind of trouble, a floor standing planer would make more sense. I think they're an appropriate size for the machine. For the size of the machine and these tables, it is pretty easy to keep snipe to a minimum. The only complaint I have is the inability to fold up the rear with dust collection in place.

While others might not consider it "portable" I do, and would appreciate tables that fold up and lock into place. I usually fold up the outfeed as best I can and put it against the wall of my trailer. It's enough of an inconvenience to give it 4 out of 5 stars.

[rant]I still believe these should have been packaged with the planer, but they weren't. [/rant] That being said, if you have a DS735 planer, these are a must-have item. Figure that in the price when you're comparing other planers.

Very useful

Extra smooth for sliding wood. This is a necessary attachment. Easy to install. The main table needs to stick out at the rear by at least an inch or two to allow the table to fold up.

folding table for DW735 planer

The product is fine, and is needed for the planer. The aggravation is that it is such a necessary component that it should have been included by DeWalt as part of the planer package.

Should not be an option

2008-05-09
Too often there is nothing presented to the purchaser of a new tool about available options as with the Folding Table extensions for the DW735. Folding up only works on Power Switch side as I have my dust collection hose permanently attached. Works well, will never take them off. Six inches longer for each table would also work well.

DW7351 and DW735

2008-05-02
The DW735 Planer is a nice little machine. Though the machine is readily available the folding tables are a bit harder to find. One might look to an online source to locate them and perhaps some better knives. The machine probably should have come with the tables for the price...however, since they don't they are a worthy investment. (Giving your wood a much cleaner surface). I got a lot of my advice from reading reviews myself. Infact, I found the Planer itself for $100 cheaper at Lowe's, though I went to Home Depot for a price match. None of the Lumber, or hardware stores I found did carry the tables...for that stick with Amazon.

Essential upgrade

2008-04-26
They install easily and significantly reduce snipe. They are an essential upgrade to the DW735 planer and should really be part of the basic package.

The only negative I can think of is that the outfeed bracket on the DW735 should have been located a little farther out so that the outfeed table could remain folded up when not in use if a dust collector fitting is not permanently attached to the DW735. But as this is not the fault of the outfeed table, I did not gig the table for this.

Planer tables are high quality. I would suggest purchase with planer. Easy to install. Good support. Glad I purchased them.
