What size planers are there?
Wood planer sizes vary from 12-13 inches wide to 25 inches wide. Depending on the nature of your work, you might find wood planers with 12 inches wide boards enough, or you could need a 20-inches wide board for better cutting and less gluing, especially in a professional environment.
Are hand planers good?
They are great to use, though, and make light work of some serious construction projects like framing a house. For hobbyists the great pleasure is using this machine to plane table tops or other wide pieces of timber.
How wide of a planer do you need?
Most benchtop model thickness planers will only allow for about 12-13-inch wide boards, which I find limiting because I like to build furniture with wider boards so I don’t have to do so much gluing & clamping. The larger thickness planers typically run in sizes from 15-inches wide up to around 25-inches wide.

Do I need a 20 inch planer?
But do you really need a 20″ planer? Absolutely not! It may come in handy someday if you want to plane a super wide panel, but that rarely ever happens in my shop. Most times, after the glueup, my panels receive a little sanding/scraping/hand planing to finish them off and that’s it.
