Brian, take a step back and re-read your posts.

You purposefully went out and bought the quietest system available. Seems like you got exactly what you paid for.

If you have a question, take...

You're looking at this situation all wrong.

This is your excuse for a ROTEX. Hell, you're even making her something from it.

I know I've still been assembling/adjusting for around 45 minutes with Urac185 without problems.

If you're like me, if you're still assembling/adjusting after 45 minutes, you didn't do very good...

"once dry".......................



That's the optimal phrase here. Experience and a nice expensive moisture meter tells me that BORG bought lumber is rarely dry enough for fine woodworking.

I use about 70% floating. It's easier. Measure, cut, route/mortise, fit tenon. It's quite easy. I tend to use 1/4 or 3/8 tenons for most every project and have a boat load of wood ready for...

Urac 185. I use it alot.

First things first. On bootup, go in the system menu by hitting esc or f12 or whatever the screen says.

Go to Boot Order and make sure you're booting to the harddrive first and not the CD/DVD or...

I've said this before about my Dewalt Circ Saw. I use it more with landscaping than I do in the shop. Probably one of my worst purchases and one I would not make again.

May I ask.................how much?

Well, the builder and flooring guys are pretty good-minded. They came by again today and looked it over and did some more work. The builder thought we'll give it a couple months and reevaluate...

Just talked to the flooring guys.

Everything is the same for the restain/refinish.

They want to know if we want to restain/refinish again by diluting the stain. Of course, he wants to know...

Found a piece of weatherproofing was missed on the wall during construction which they believe is the cause of the moisture difference. That problem was fixed and the wood allowed to dry out to...

A couple weeks ago, I started a thread about our new wood floor and excessive wood separation. They noted that the wood in this area had a high moisture content. They offered to resand, fill, then...

What is considered adequate? I've read some guys state that you need near perfection and others who state "coplanarity" is entirely overrated and makes little difference unless grossly non-planer...

I agree, that is a unique fence system, Jim. I'm surprised they didn't integrate a mortiser as well.

Overall, it's a beast. They certainly are going to sell some units.

Depends on the season.

During warmer months, I usually spray on Target USL in a protected area outside. During the colder months I'll finish inside and usually use a wipe-on oil/varnish mix. ...

For a boat that size with a center console, you'll want to do the job right. For that, you'll want to treat the exterior with fiberglass cloth and epoxy. Certainly, I think you want to epoxy coat...

I built a little 8 foot jonboat a couple years ago. What type of boat are you interested in building?

I have that router and love it. No slippage.

That's the sale price that comes around a couple times per year. They make a variable speed for about 30 bucks more.

EDIT: Oops, that is the...

......and dare I say.......above average customer service? I'm dodging lightening now.

For those who have Felder J/Ps, what type of cutterblock are you running? Last I remember, Felder was offering a 4 knife FELDER system or a 4 knife standard system or a 3 knife Tersa (and they...

Yep, 30% more area to sand with on a 6" sander.

To clarify, only the Festool Rotex sanders have the dual functions of random orbital mode vs. rotary sanding mode. I would also submit that if...

I bought a Festool 150/3 recently. I felt pretty guilty about it until I used it and was blown away with the dust collection and low vibration. Needless to say, I don't at all feel guilty anymore. ...

Might also be a good idea to head down to Atlanta later this year for the IWF. That shouldn't be too bad of a drive and they'll have a couple machines to look at and cut with. Maybe a little easier...

Amazon will have them; buy a used one and don't be afraid to get it dirty in the shop.
