To get back to the 5X8 trailer idea: I have a nice one with 15" wheels and a 2990 lb GVWR. Aside from hauling lumber and furniture, it's great for stuff I don't want in my van like mulch, topsoil,...

As touched on previously, the Dodge/Plymouth/Chrysler minivans will hold 4X8 sheets IF they are the long wheelbase (Grand) models. When Chrysler first designed these for the '84 model year, that was...
I bought this Hitachi, specifically because of it's higher (2500) RPM for woodworking: http://bigskytool.com/Hitachi_D10VH_38_Drill_6.0_Amp_EVS_Reversible_%28Reconditioned%29___i269.aspx Though in...
Nice Ridgid drill press! Oh - never mind. :rolleyes:
Nice job, BTW! Looks like a pretty big motor on that DP.

I'm with Wayne: Loctite and maybe a star type lock washer under that screw if it will fit okay. There's no set-screw on that upper pulley, is there?
I have a a road bike and a mountain bike with carbon fiber frames (and CF handlebars on another one of my mountain bikes) and a set of golf clubs with CF shafts. They make race cars with CF frames....
I read it the same way Art did and was scratching my head. Thanks for clarifying.
I have a digital in the garage and a digital/fractional in the wood shop. I think there's another one floating around the house somewhere because it was on sale and I couldn't resist. Very handy...
I have two of the 5" Bosch ROS's. I like them a lot.

I have a DW733 and have been really happy with it. I bought it used for $200 a couple years ago (a good deal) and have done minimal service to it. I changed blades once and took some of it apart...
Out of curiosity, what so you mean by a Delta 'Contractor' Unisaw? A Unisaw is a cabinet saw. A contractor type saw is one with the motor hanging out in back. Delta made them, too.

"One big enough to hold up cast iron extension tables while you install them on a planer or table saw :D"
I hadn't thought of that!

Derek,
I have a generic Asian floor standing DP that's about 25 years old. It came with a 1/3hp motor which was fine until it came to turning larger Forstner bits and it would stall. I looked...
I have one, too. It's not a critical issue for me as I have use two newer units but have the old one around as a backup. I'll see about getting the defective one replaced, though. Thanks for the...
Not PA. We had RAS's in both the high schools and middle schools of the big school district I taught at. I only recall one RAS accident in my 36 years of teaching there and that was when 9th...
I have a 5HP IR compressor in my garage. In winter, with conventional oil, the oil would thicken and the compressor would blow the breaker when it started. I changed to IR synthetic and that...
<<With that amount of work I'd hope you got it for next to nothing :) They go pretty cheap in running order.>>
Not around my area they don't! All the DeWalt's; the 733, 734 and 735 go for higher...
SC,
I did the same thing with mine (Using a ROS) that you did with yours. It works fine.

Harlon,
There's a thread on OWWM that gives a lot of general information about the Delta/Rockwell turret arm RAS's: http://www.owwm.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=109529 It doesn't specifically address...
<<Recommendations?>>
I was looking around to replace the PC7518 under my table rather than add a lift. A lot of guys were liking the Triton TRA001. I bought one and am really pleased with it. ...
I like my RAS. Recently I made a 10" ladder out of a couple of pressure treated 2x4's for uprights and 5/4 stock for rungs/steps. I cut nine 1" dado's on each upright at a 15 degree angle. A piece...
Mark,
That's really ingenious! Great work!
Bill
Peter,
You have some good advice above. A separate power switch, preferably a paddle type for safety, would be a great idea.
Regarding what you call a fence, I would call a tool rest. I'd...
Though that is a nice fence (also sold through Peach Tree), Gary is looking for that rail that runs along the front of the table.

Mike,
I have a '79 Unisaw and I'm thinking they weigh about 400 lbs depending on the motor. The old RI motors were pretty heavy but if you have a more modern single phase capacitor start it would...
