Fortunately/unfortunately I have moved a few Felder/Hammer machines, including a full combo Felder. Definitely do it safely first and foremost but don't overcomplicate it. You can pry up each side...
I just looked into that and it appears they are opening a new one close by which would be perfect! Thanks for the tip!
We are going to build a house and I would like to build the cabinets/built-ins but the problem is that we have to sell our current house where my shop is and live in an apartment while the house is...
You can see the jig I built some time ago. Worked great. I have since sold my slider but am going to buy another one soon and will build the same thing. Maybe some slight improvements but all in...
Remote: The RF frequencies are sensitive to fluorescent lights. If you have a bunch of them in your shop that could be an issue. Not sure but guessing. Just a thought. If you can roll your machine...
I will have to say this about Laguna's customer service. It is pretty top notch. I spoke with Adam @ Laguna and he was very prompt and polite. Even reached out to me though I didn't get back to...
Ok. So I just talked to Paul from the Toolmetrix video on YouTube. Great guy! He has a lot of good information and has been using the Laguna for a few months. He was registering 87db or so. Not...
I have a inquiry out to Paul from Toolmetrix to see what he thinks as he was going to get the p|flux. He was selling/sold his ClearVue to get the Laguna. He did the only good review I could find on...
The main reason I got the p|flux was the sound reduction. The couple bells and whistles that come on the p|flux also make it more cost effective to just buy up front versus having to add on later. ...
I have this jig from Carter: http://www.carterproducts.com/band-saw-products/accuright
Works great and easy to setup. Of course it isn't rocket science to make one either.
Santa came early delivering gifts via a freight truck. There isn't a lot of information out there yet on this dust collector so I thought I would open a thread and provide some information for that...
I bought one of the aluminum Husky air compressors from Home Depot. It is amazingly quiet and seems to drive my framing nailer just fine. I haven't done a large project but I wouldn't be concerned...
Sometimes it would be nice to have a dedicated miter saw setup but the space is definitely not worth it to me in a 2 car garage shop. Some of the workstations that allow you to change out the tools...
I am getting better and better at SketchUp. It still amazes me that it has continued to be free. SketchUp for Woodworkers is still relevant. It is a fast tutorial basically. There are some key...
Do some searching on waterlox in the finishing forum here on SMC. I used waterlox on our dining room table. It takes a bit of time and patience to get right but is not bad. I brushed the table in...
The door just really needs to sit flush all the way around and look like the other panels. I have looked extensively at the hidden door type hardware and for this I won't have any moulding or want...
Those are some spendy hinges! I wouldn't go with any larger than 1 1/2" unless you wanted to go with a more substantial look. Those seem like solid hinges so don't think that support would be an...
Definitely build it yourself!! That is the reason you are acquiring those tools, right? :-) I use these projects as opportunities to learn new things and get the right tools for the job.
If you...
We are in the design process of our new home and in the entry I would like to do wood veneered panels on each side. The middle panel on the left as you walk in is going to be a walk-in/through...
Oak is ok from a hardness perspective (check out the Janka hardness scale). If the wood you are working with is dense enough to be tapped then I would favor that to screws. I did a waterfall...
There are a lot of options but I would seriously consider floor tiles. You are going to run into problems rolling really heavy equipment on it but it may be an option....
For the money and time you are going to have in making your own router table top it is pretty cost prohibitive to build vs. buy. You can buy an Incra top off Amazon pretty cheap for the quality you...
I found the StandingWave app he wrote a while back. Always wanted to try to use it but never really had a project for it. Going to try to incorporate some of the designs in my new house.
There was a lengthy thread a while ago titled "Observations on Euro style sliding saw". Check it out as there were a few ideas. I built a jig that worked great for small pieces based on a few of...
