The BW SHB 1800? I bought the BW12 J a couple years (?) back and it's pretty much all the jointer I'll ever need. Cast iron base, 4 knive, 3hp and beds are dead flat and perfectly coplaner..

I think the "right" way is to pull back the carpet and I do when possible or extra cost willing...but have done lots of builtins right on top :rolleyes: Low pile carpet better of course, but have...

My shaper is dedicated to swinging raised panel cutters so I made this fence. Not sure how it could be any safer short of a power feeder and the top hold down works great. I get 100 percent DC (I...

Ash Michael said, they are plenty strong. I've gone through hundreds and not one tear along the way from my 2hp commercial system. I know Oneida recommends a 4mm, but these work just fine. Can the...

Have it, love it, no regrets. I actually sold my Tormek to get the Mk.II. Yep, the Tormek does a better job with turning tools and has more accessories for "stuff", but for chisels and plane irons...

I have to say mine has been working flawlesly for a couple years. It sounds like your drum is not completely sealed. I assume you put a generous amount of silicone on the inside and outside of the...

Like everyone else, I've used mine with a 2hp onieda and it's done fine. HOWEVER, just recently I've noticed there are lots of dust/chips inside of the main housing and I can see dust somehow...

I have used these lid supports several times and they work GREAT.

I own the 735 and yes, I agree you need the ext. tables to keep snipe to a minimum. FWIW, I've owned the delta 580 and the two knife older version of the dewalt 734 and they are both fine planers. ...

Stu, being this thing is going in your L shop, I'd rout the rabbet in the back so if it is ever broken, it would be an easier fix. Mill a backer strip - you could even put a little profile on it of...

Liem, nice initial reveiw on the 514x. I picked up the same saw (at Muncy, PA) several weeks ago and found a similiar amount of rust on the pulleys. My table had just slight rust around the edges,...

I think a lazy susan is the only way to go with spraying doors. Regardless of finish, I spray the whole door at once. First the back, flip, do each edge then the top. Shoot a couple brads through...

Bill, I'm not sure how big your panels will be, but this is my set up for doors and small panels. It's a real space saver being the racks are hindged and can fold away when not being used. D-wall...

I use a lots of sheet stock and I rarely come across an end that is square. I made a couple simple but accurate panel squares to square one end before I cross cut using a circ saw guided system. ...

Not sure if this helps your situation but when building a drawer, I have several sizes of this this simple jig (1/4" ply!) to square them up right after glueing and assembling (mostly dovetailed). ...

I assemble the FF's (faces "finished" with just a planer), then attached to the cases and then hit them with the ROS. I have a 24" drum sander but have never run assembled FF's through it. Most...

I use the scrap wood method for loosening. As said, you really don't need a lot of torque to tighten so I just tighten the arbor nut by hand, then pull the blade forward so the wrench hits the front...

One of those simple jigs that actually works pretty good. I've used mine for apron to leg joints mainly. Shim to get your offset and bada bing :D I have the 3/8" kit and think it is plenty strong...

Yep, er...no...I mean you are correct! :D I know just enough about all these cutterheads to properly confuse, ME! Was just trying to point out there are *similar* types that have been around for...

Wow. That is one beautiful machine that surely will have been worth the wait! Congrats.

If and when you do call Wilke, ask for Steve. He's a saleman but had been a tech for many years and knows his product, and will give you his un-biased opinion...really! I recently bought a 12" BW...

For paint grade I glue and shoot a finish nail. For stain grade just glue and clamp. Make a couple 2X6 "stands" and clamp for 30 minutes. By the time you whip up your next face frame or two, remove...

I have used the ATF55 extensively for several years and recently picked up the new TS55. The first thing I noticed was a more refined look and feel to the saw. The slightly larger and rubber grip...

I've always made the drawers of solid (dt'd) and a hair bigger than the final dimension for these slides. I use my jointer (with backer) or TS to trim a hair to fit. If you err, do so on the...

Nope! I agree with the logic that the faceframes are also glued to the case so there is little real strength gained from a dap o glue. Actually, I had to pry off a faceframe yesterday after only 30...
