Bauerle planer

[Darcy Warner]

From sad to sexy beast.
Still a couple things left to make it 100% perfect.
Also having new badges made, original ones are not salvageable.

I contacted a place in Chicago called American Nameplate, but I was just made aware of a guy in AZ that is doing this as well.

Not having to do anything but plug it in.

Wowzah!

Very nice work..

I’m green with envy

Its basically new with a Hermance head.
I swear there were like 30 bearings in it.
Has a row of anti kick back fingers, solid infeed roll, quick adjust bed rollers, 4 speed feed, all stuffed inside a sleek sexy package.

You can feel very good about what you did..

I’d charge a pretty penny for that machine in that condition regardless of its actual value. Pretty sure its probably fairly valuable non the less.

I’d be nearly willing to part with a organ for that machine if I had one to spare. And if I had the money to afford paying someone to do the work I’d just open the checkbook. Sadly for me my only option is to get my hands dirty.

Bauerle was the largest manufacturer of WW machinery in Germany in the 50s through the late 70s. Not many here though. All were directly imported as I find no evidence of a Importer/dealer here.

The kids and I are headed back to the shop to fiddle with the adjustments on the planer, pressure bar is a bit low and I need a bit more tension on the feed rolls.

Shoot a quick video of it running some lumber.
Fairly quiet machine, all you hear is the whine of the 28" head running at 5k rpm.

Oh I know what it w thanks to guys like , you joe and trolling the interweb like a mad man.

i was just noticing the detail of the German on the handwheel.

i know so of my draw or things I find appealing don’t quite add up to some but that detail is like crack to me.

I'll take some pictures of the hand wheels.

Beautiful job Darcy. Fine machine.

Beautiful job Darcy. Fine machine.

This thing drove me up the wall, I now know of 3 in the US, one sort of worked, this one and I finally tracked down the other one that was with this one when I picked it up. (I digress, I have seen two more advertised in auction flyers)

I am missing a gear box clutch brake that would make it a perfect machine. Just can't hold itself in neutral without the brake, not enough resistance in feed works.

Thanks Mark.
