Pit Bull Power Planer

If you're looking for a power planer on a tight budget, look no further. Pit Bull, a company we've never heard of (and can't find any information on), has recently released this one which is currently selling for the extremely low price of $16.50.

This planer has 2.6 amps, a small number when compared the big name planers which are usually above 6 amps. But, seeing as this tool is being sold for under $20, it’s really unfair to compare it to a Bosch. At the price it’s being sold for, if it even works you’re already ahead of the game.

We doubt that something this inexpensive is capable of the finest micro-tuned finish work, but if you only use a planer once or twice a year, or if you just have one or two projects in mind, why bother shell out $150 just so you can have that nice name brand case collecting dust in your garage?

The planer comes with a rabbeting fence and a sharpening holder.

If this kind of deal is right up your alley, make sure to check out GMC’s $10 Detail Sander as well.
