Fixin to head out to get some wire & receptacles to hook up the 725 planer. Wouldnt expecting it till the end of the week or I would have already had this done. The frieght office called yesterday so of coarse I had to drop what I was doing and go get it. ;D Unpacked it last nite and done the reading. I know this isnt considered a beast in the sense of commercial planers but considering Ive been using a 13" rigid, its a beast to me.Got the 5hp dust collector with it also.Now maybe I can actually see the floor while planing. It says to use high temp bearing grease on the bearings, I think Im gonna get a little extra for the elctrical meter cause I know that baby is gonna spin like crazy when I kick all this on. ;D

Well, didnt get a whole lot done. Did manage to get the machine all together. Between having to unclog the drain from the house and being a pallbearer at a goats funeral, wasnt a whole lot of time left for the machine. Maybe there will be more time for the machine tommorrow and I can get the power run and the dust collection hooked up.
