I took Mike Hosaluk's two classes earlier this month, and have to concur on the quality of the facility, the instruction and the welcoming atmosphere. Since this was my first class at MASW, I had...
I second David's approach. Cheap Jacobs chuck when you just need to hog out wood or set a rough depth. Carter Strongbore for more accurate deep holes. I tried a couple other cheap extensions first,...
Got mine via Amazon, unfortunately, price has nearly tripled since I got it in 2015. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007001F52 Eric is a fantastic demonstrator, we are very lucky to have him in...
An old leather belt to loosen up "overtightened" blanks from the screw chuck.
Scraps of felt pad underlayment material for jam chucks.
+1 on magnets and magnetic trays
Got to try the...
Count me in, please.
Include me, please.
I have two HTC 100 chucks with various jaws and they continue to work well for me. Even fit tightly on my Grizzly 733 without needing to file down the spindle. I would like to see Steve offer a set...
This is also the time of year to keep an eye on Woodcraft and others for Black Friday deals. I picked up a Rikon 70-050VS for about $229 a couple years ago on Black Friday. It is 12x16, only 1/2 hp -...

Congratulations, Jay! As Doug said in another part of the thread, come on over to the Grizzly Green Monster Group and start adding to your project list from all the great ideas there!
The exercise I could certainly use, but the rest of the story is the clutter in the way - maple slabs waiting to turned into bowl blanks, saw horses with the remains of the Grizzly crate waiting to...
Jay - regarding the 10% off - when I was in Bellingham, and gave the clerk my 5% off coupon (this was a couple weeks ago), he mentioned he hadn't seen many coupons coming in. Apparently Grizzly doles...
Jay,
Regarding the secondary arm - I don't know. May be worth a call to Grizzly. You might want to also check with Busy Bee, since the Craftex CX802 which Rick mentioned does have some additional...
I was lucky to be able to look one over in the showroom before purchase - the fit and finish is generally ok - castings are rough if you look underneath. Jet fit and finish is better. I have an issue...
Jay,
The bed is about 66 1/8 inches long. The extra length comes from the motor (which hangs off the left end about 11 inches when the headstock is all the way to the left) and the handwheel on...
