normally I would agree with you Steve, but since Shop Vac is trying to get this right (and sent me new motors) I am trying to work with it...I tested the motor tonight and it appears that the carbon...
sorry to resurrect an old post, but...here goes. After using the "new" motor for about a total run time of 2 hours (in maybe 5-10 min intervals) the second motor went out! I had it on for about 3...
Thanks for the response, I do like keeping the tools with cutting end up but at same time was tempted to just get something up so that I can spend more time turning. Currently my tools are just...
Good eve all, just had a bit of epiphany about storing my turning tools. I have been toying with using broom holder clips to hold them mounted behind my lathe, but had another thought, what about...
It is a shame that this occurs, but we gotta love physics :) I am still playing with the idea of using broom clips and have found some that the springs are not so strong at the BORG that I might...
I hung mine on chains (I have >8' to bottom of I-beam joist). Instead of drilling into I-beam, I cut (4) 2x4 pieces to lengthso that it would span between joists without putting any side load into...
Thanks John.
Too funny. I didn't realize that it was such a touchy subject?
Greetings all. I am working to come up with a way to hold my turning tools. I have seen alot of pics that show using a magnet. My question is, won't this magnetize the tools? I bought some broom...
Tom, I have never heard of another filter. where is it again?
The replacement motor came today (talk about excellent customer service). It installed quickly and was back up and running in 5...
Just to update situation, I called shop-vac and they have a new power head on the way. In discussions with the tech, I was advised that the cap might slightly restrict flow but that should not have...

Jason, All I have sucked up is saw dust and some larger chunks of wood. I have the pleated filter it came with installed as well as a drywall dust bag that you mention. Interestingly enough, the...
Myk, the filter is on correctly. It doesn't bypass dust, but when I take the cap off the motor exhaust, it is so strong and concentrated it blows paper and dust and whatever else is in its path...
I purchased a shop vac on closeout from the Blue BORG a few years ago and just got it out of box to use it last week. After about 2-3 hours of non-continuous use, it started to smell burnt. The...
Thanks for the answers. After setting the drawer slides at about 1/8" set back one can feel the engagement. I imagine that the set back distances are variable depending on the slides used.
Greetings all. I am working on upgrading from the cheap white euro roller slides to full extension and had a question...does the drawer side slide mount flush to the inside face of the false front or...
The existing slides are the white sidemount euro type. I will completely swap them out to full extension. The drawer sides have a 1/2"+ gap from the outside face to the face frame.
Good morning all. I have a quick drawer slide question. My kitchen currently has the euro-style 3/4 extension white roller slides and we want to swap out to full extension or overtravel. The face...
Thanks for the great ideas all! Time for more studying and waiting I guess. There was one review that popped up and seemed very positive...
I was going to use the typical dowel rod available in length at the big box stores. I don't have any 1/4" at house. I would guess that regardless of dia, the glued joint should be strong enough...
Thanks for the response. I thought about using a 1/4" dowel, but that may not work because the center point of the screw would end up right on the joint between the melamine and the dowel; That is...
Marvin, could you take snapshot of your setup with the arm you posted?
Greetings all, I just uncovered an error made 6 years ago in my melamine miter station cabinets...I drilled 1/4" shelf pins exactly where I need to place the mounting plate for the Blum hinges! And...
Another thought would be to take 1 4" S&D Tee fitting and kind of make my own, but then have to figure out how to best mount it. Ahhh, choices choices...
