"Makita 1911B one-hand wide planer carpenter’s planer"

What does the Makita 1911B one-hand wide planer offer?

The Makita 1911B one-hand wide planer is an electric planer for wide timber surfaces. It helps you smooth and straighten beams, boards and frames quickly. Thanks to the wide sole plate, you save time on large workpieces.

The planer sits well in the hand with its one-hand design. This allows you to guide it safely even over long workpieces. That is useful for roof construction, interior finishing and work on site.

Who is this carpenter’s planer for?

The Makita 1911B is aimed at users who regularly work with solid timber. It is suitable for both the workshop and the building site.

  • Carpenters and timber construction companies
  • Interior fit-out and dry construction with a timber component
  • Joiners and ambitious DIY enthusiasts

If you need to trim beams, fit doors or smooth large surfaces, this planer supports you with a wide cutting width.

Typical everyday applications

With the Makita 1911B, you work timber surfaces directly on site. This saves trips to a stationary machine.

  • Planing ceiling beams and rafters
  • Trimming door leaves and frames
  • Smoothing frames, panel edges and workpieces in furniture making
  • Finishing rough-sawn construction timber

What should you pay attention to when using it?

Sharp blades are important for a clean planed surface. Check the blades regularly and replace or turn them when needed.

Guide the planer with even pressure over the workpiece. Start with a small cutting depth and only increase it if the timber allows it. This reduces tear-out and gives you a smooth surface.
