Rigid Model R4330 planer

[lazerbeam]

I've been looking at the R4330 planer and have been trying to find replacement blades (model AC20502) to use when the supplied ones wear out. So far no luck on the Rigid parts site and the three local HD's in my area don't carry them. Looking for suggestions on where to get these blades..
:confused:

If you can't find them at the Ridgid parts site then good luck finding them anywhere. Yet another example of why not to buy any Ridgid tool that needs OEM specific normal wear and tear replacement parts. That is at least until HD & Ridgid finally get their act together about this very ongoing problem.
