Description
The Shop Fox W1877 is a 13-inch benchtop planer designed to bring smooth, consistent surfacing to a portable woodworking setup. Its spiral-style cutterhead uses 26 two-sided HSS inserts to produce a cleaner finish with quieter operation and less upkeep than traditional straight-knife designs.
Built for dimensioning and finish planing boards up to 13 inches wide and 6 inches thick, this planer features six preset cutterhead heights, a thickness scale, and a cutterhead height lock for repeatable results. A 2 HP motor, 10,000 RPM cutterhead speed, and 26 FPM feed rate help it handle everything from light cleanup passes to more demanding stock removal.
Folding extension tables, a compact benchtop footprint, and built-in dust collection make it a practical fit for small shops, jobsite use, and serious home woodworking spaces. It is well suited for woodworkers who want improved surface quality and efficient planing performance in a machine that is easier to move and store than a full-size stationary planer.
