What is this device and how is it arranged?

The planer has two handles. One is to hold the tool, and the second - to press against the working surface and move in the direction you need. The second one also has an alignment with the depth cutter of the tree. The device looks like a volume control, but has a measuring ruler in a circle, it sets the depth of the cut to a fraction of a millimeter. There is a start button and a power cord.

The inner part of the plane looks like this: a drum in which 2 blades are stuck. The motor rotates the drum, which causes the knives to cut. One rotation of the drum, these are two movements by a mechanical plane.

If you want, something more professional then, the model 1924H with a power of 850 watts makes a cut to 3, 6 mm per pass. But the speed of rotation of the drum is the same.
6. Manufacturer of "Black & Decker".Quality model KW715 has a small power, only 550 W, but cuts in one pass 1, 6 mm of wood. Rotation of the drum 15000 rpm.
