I have a PM100 planer that I bought new in 1990 and I love it. It has a Byrd head and I have it adjusted well with tight tolerances on the pressure bar so there is minimal snipe. The one frustration is that with the pressure bar adjusted to minimize snipe I need to keep wax on the bed to feed stock well. The outfeed roller has a smooth polished surface so it cannot pull stock. When someday I upgrade my planer I will get one with urethane outfeed rollers. I was at the AWFS show last week and Western Roller (they do urethane wheels and such) and they were showing a urethane roller upgrade for lunchbox planers. I talked with them about modifying mine or making a new one and it's not that expensive. Thoughts? they were not sure if my roller was hardened or not, I need to check with a file. If they can turn my roller down the cost would be only $100. If they need to make a new one the cost is higher, I did not get a quote.
