    Didn't see this thread first time around.

    Two layers of MDF with plastic laminate on both sides can be a pretty ridgid flat surface. It is in fact a torsion box of sorts. The plam needs to be...

    MM is available in single phase.
    They do offer a dado spindle now and I believe it's standard from mm-usa. (Personally I could care less about that.)

    P.S... You'll eventually need to do a rip or two with just the rip fence. Loosen the clamp pull it ahead, lock it and make the cut. I'd save the wider parts for that when possible.

    Set the rip fence to your 3 to 12" width. Pull the fence back so that the front edge is behind the front of the blade, put the sheet on the slider against the fence on the cross cut table and the rip...

    No specific questions so I'll say I'm very fussy about tools and am well satisfied with mine. Built like a tank, good fit and finish. I have the spiral solid knife cutter head, no going back to...

    I believe the bigger issue with this is not bearings, it's drive belts. It's hard to make a drive belt that transmits lots of power like a shaper must and a belt that runs at router speeds.

    ahhh I thought you meant the fence to blade and wagon alignment. That is easy to shim. Loosen the aluminum fence clamp insert the shim to the front or back of the casting depending on which way you'd...

    Steve that's kind of a neat idea.

    If you reversed the work piece the fat end of the off cut would be at the back and a zero clearance insert wouldn't be needed.

    Maybe it's ok but the dowel...
