IN STOCK AND CUSTOM JOURNAL HEADS
Most woodworkers know that a shear cut is far better than a straight cut. They also know that a staggered cut is much better than just a single straight knife and is quieter and a lot easier on your dust collection system. If you just happen to plane a nail or staple, it is not necessary to replace expensive knives the full length of your planer head! Replace the 2 or 3 small inexpensive knives and you're ready to go! You might expect to pay a small fortune for a journal head with these features. Here at Byrd Tool Corp we can manufacture a journal head to your specifications for typically a fraction of the cost you might expect.
Don't be fooled by a head that looks like it is helical when the knives are square with the cut!
This is common practice, but our heads are anything but common! (diagram)

Here's what our customers say...
"After Approximately 2 years of use our SHELIX head is doing
great! Low noise, easy maintenance and a very smooth finish, make
this
head a fine choice."
John Neece,
Henry Co. Hardwood, Inc.
"Thank you Byrd Tool! I
have
a small production shop and use a 180 Powermatic planer. For
years I have
always had to glue up extra panels to make sure we have enough to
complete a
job because we culled a few due to a deep chip or tear out. We
tried
honing the blades after grinding which didn't work. We bought
disposable knives. They didn't work. Byrd Tool came out
with the SHELIX head. After talking to Tom at Byrd Tool, I
ordered
one. The cut is unbelievable. There is no, and I
repeat, no chipping, no extra panels to get out or time wasted doing
it even in cherry or curly maple. To top that off, it is much
quieter and
dust collection is greatly improved because of the small chips it
produces. I liked it so well that I put SHELIX on my moulder as
well. If
any one uses insert heads, Byrd has the best at a very reasonable
price.
You can always count on prompt, courteous and dependable service and a
lot of
friendly cost saving advice."
