Knives are so easy to set...this shouldn't be an excuse...Most that buy them do so becsuse they can't set knives properly.
Yes those heads. Each cutter takes a scallop. It is not a smooth cut like a real helical head or straight knives.I dunno. I guess I will fing out. We are all talking about the shelix heads from bird and not the knock offs correct? There isnt one review under 5 stars on amazon.
Grizzly makes a totally different insert type head. Just look at the geometry and the noticble difference in the way the cutters wrap the head and how many fewer there are.This is mine. The blades do seat differently.
I don't like grizzly either but to be fair to them this planer has been put through **** and is still performing very well. That's all the grizzly we've got.Grizzly makes a totally different insert type head.

I dislike grizzly, but that head is better then a byrd.
+1Hey you ponied up the money to buy the thing, not us, so if it does what you want it to, who cares if someone else says it's not "supposed" to be good.
