I have that compressor and a 15" wide belt sander that uses air for tensioning, oscillating, and the belt tracking sensor. It has been adequate for occasional wide belt use. I figure that I will add...

Even with the modifications the grey machine looks puny. Good thing it's in the foreground.:D

I'm a big fan of back savers like the ones shown in your photos. The pallet jack doesn't take up much...

Congrats Keith!

You can start collecting green logs now rather than OSB.

I love my monster.

Bill - I'll keep it warm for you.:)

Great video Paul. I'm anxious to watch more of them. Your videographer is so steady and patient while hanging from the ceiling.

We also have Finkat in packs of 10 sheets per grit which is easier...

Mike,

I know a great place for cloth backed sanding belts at unbeatable prices. ;)

If you don't find a source, just ask. The place I have in mind can make sanding belts in Aluminum Oxide,...

Tony,

You might want to look for a vendor that ships Priority Mail to Hawaii, and prices new sanding belts so low that you are tempted to skip the old belt repair. ;)

Wide sanding belts can be expensive. Don't buy more sanding belts than you will use in a year, because the glue joint does not last forever. Storing sanding belts off the floor under moderate...

I unplug it too when I leave the shop. You don't have to think about LED lifespan, power surges, chuck keys, big or little fingers.

Excellent Roy! I like the rim detail and the figure.

McFarland's Mill in Winchester, VA, delivered my 3520B down 13 steps and assembled it in my basement. I paid $100 for this service, but no sales tax on my side of Potomac river. Another local guy...

I switch directions on my 3520B while sanding without stopping the lathe. The VFD is programmed by Powermatic to stop the lathe first and then start it up in the opposite direction. I think this is...

Is that an Aigner rail on the MM24? What do you use it for? Any photos?

Cars don't provide the point loads that high heels provide. However, you have to drive on to it so you may have an issue at the edge unless you provide a little border wedge/ramp. Good luck! I was...

It must be tough losing 30% of your shop space. Are you going have room for that Altendorf F-45?:rolleyes:

Are you looking forward to not paying rent and not having to put up with the...

Like you, I'm trying figure out which shaper to buy. It will be my first shaper, and I want it to spin router bits too. One comment a tooling dealer made about running 1-1/4" tooling on a smaller...

Maybe it was FWW # 174 Tools & Shops 2004/2005 using t-track.
There's another one in FWW # 141 using drawer slides.

Here's the ad from Woodwork magazine February 2006:

12" BABY DRUM SANDER

* Sanding motor: 1-1/2HP, 110/220V, single-phase
* Conveyor motor: 1/10HP, 110V, single-phase, variable speed 0-15...

So the longer I take to find those dreamy 3-phase monsters, the more options the electronics folks will offer in smaller, less costly packages.:)

Variable speed is great on the lathe, and I would...

or with grooved pulleys and belts? If so, where did you get them?

What if you are considering adding 3 Phase to the whole shop?

Then what is the cost and complexity differences between single and three phase input to the VFD?

For example, I have a 1-1/2 hp...

I think that one is CE safety approved.:D :eek: :D :eek:

What is the difference between a Variable Frequency Drive using single phase input versus three phase input? I'm interested in the 1 - 7.5 hp range.

Congrats on the new DC! You modifications look very well done. Is that a new type of quick connect from Air Handling? What's it called?

Contact the Larry at KNC Home Shop. He was extremely helpful with suggestions and sometimes products for reducing noise in my basement workshop. They have a website, but you really need to talk to...
