I would also be interested in the links/PM's, as I am planning on starting this project in the near future. TIA!

I have had the motor, Jet impeller, and intention to build a Pentz cyclone since about 2003. I guess I have put it off long enough. I know there was a lot of concern/discussion about the "best" way...

It looks like the 10 series parts from 8020 Garage would run about $110 + screws and shims and the 15 series would be ~$150. I planned on using 8 pieces of housing, 24 bearing pads, and 6' of...

Thanks for everyone's suggestions so far. I was planning on having the bearings slide along the shaft (rather than rotate) and I do not want to wear grooves in the shaft material, so I guess I...

I'm looking to build a sliding table for a slot mortiser. I have some ball bearing drawer slides, but I saw these mounted bronze bearings at McMaster-Carr and heared of something similar being used...

Don't hold your breath waiting for the pics...we have a 4 month old, but a very understanding wife (I'm blessed to have both, but not blessed with time).

Thanks for everyone's responses so far. I agree with Lee's weight estimate, which puts the weight on each corner at about 315 pounds (not that much), so I guess I shouldn't be overly concerned with...

I was avoiding using construction grade lumber because I thought there might be a lot of movement as the wood dries...OK, I'll say it, I was afraid of shrinkage! I bought some 8/4 soft maple instead...

I thought the same thing about the sides (ply with molding applied), but I was hoping to do M&T with some doors on the sides to access equipment/electrical switches. Also, the top will be 3/4" ply,...

I am planning to build a stand for a 120 gallon reef tank (similar to this one). I asked for suggestions on construction techniques over at Woodnet and one that sounded logical was to use M&T. I...

I have the good fortune of living a few miles from Toolmart and I think their jointer and planer deserve a visit this weekend. I currently have a Powermatic 54 (short bed) jointer and Delta 733...

OK, I'll jump in here with my $.01 (maybe $.02). I have an S16 and have been using it occassionally for the past 5 months (or so). I have seen a couple of other user reviews of the saw, but not too...

Lewis-

Very inspirational idea! Maybe I can build a cyclone without cutting up my hands on sheet metal. I'm going to have to start looking around for a suitable drum. Does anyone have any ideas...

I just looked through the Amazon/Tool Crib catalog that came in the mail yesterday and the Super Dado is listed at $207! Luckily I ordered one last Sunday when the price was $159 (probably a day...

I am new to this forum, but have been around enought to know that this can be a touchy subject, but here is my question...

Is the "Terry Hatfield" version of the cyclone different from the current...
