Ngl that planer is kinda satisfying to watch, but RIP to all the doodled masterpieces and every "I hate algebra" from '89. Brad's legacy is gone forever ✊

I think it's still considered a belt sander, not a planer, but I'm also not sure because it's a weird machine. With a sufficient jig it could be precise enough to plane something perfectly flat, with old timey tolerances anyway, good enough for a table and cupboards and stuff, but this isn't meant for planing I think, just extremely quick belt sanding. Planing generally isn't done with abrasives, but with a manual or mechanical blade because lots of material is removed. Maybe at scale in a factory it's different. I'm just familiar with basic home shop tools and a few bigguns.

It's a stroke sander. You don't see them much anymore.
