If i were routinely planing large heavy pieces of lumber then i would add some internal braces to the box to make it stronger but would also lose that storage space.

Get the plans from fixthisbuildthat here specs may vary.
My stand s dimensions were intended to accommodate a dewalt dw735 planer and a ridgid oscillating spindle sander.
Now normally this isn t a step that would be required in a build.
But i have one suggestion.
When i first got my735 i tried standing on the adjustment wheel side while feeding the wood.
The dw7350 mobile thickness planer stand is constructed for durability and stability under heavy loads.
Ideal for easy movement and storage of planer and stand.
For the frame of this project we are using 2 4 lumber.
Dear first lady of the forest thanks.
Or just buy a delta planer with a stand then you wont need the plans g still freezing my butt off in the cold snowy pocono mts.
This design was inspired by brad at fixthisbuildthat and he s got plans available for this build if you re interested.
Ok let s get dirty.
The stand was designed to be easy to make and strong enough for what i will use the planer for.
But we are building a stand for the planer.
I figured out that if i stood on the other side i wouldn t have to reach around or through the exhaust tube to grab the wood that s coming out of the planer.
Cut the lumber down to size.
Note the plywood on the bottom of the bracket hooks under the top of the stand holding the new bed tight to the planer.
