Sweet! Thanks folks I think I've got all the details.
I'm going to inspect the wiring. Glad now that I only used painted OSB on my walls and took pictures of all the wiring before I covered it up!...
Thanks for the tips/knowledge. I'll start the hunt!
What would a IEC style magnetic starter do? It only has a reset switch, but the power runs through it on its way to the motor.
Sounds like I should upgrade the breaker to a 30a 240v breaker.

So after a recent Unisaw purchase at auction, I find myself now with two Delta Unifences, however BOTH did not come with rails.
The OEM rails are PRICEEEEY! Is there anyway to make custom rails...
Thank you to all who've helped with this.
OK. Some clarity now after having a look.
The fuse box contains 3 - 240v 20 Amp Breakers.
The motor on the Unisaw states: 230v / 20 amp draw /...
Thx.
Yes I have 3 seperate outlets, each fed by a single 220v breaker. So my breaker box contains 3, 220 breakers. Each feeds it's own outlet.
I was just confused about the 230 motor spec and...
Hey all,
Just need some electrical help. I picked up a cheap Delta 34-814 Unisaw. It's 5hp, single phase, 230a. My garage is a 60amp service and has 3 individual 220a breakers, with single...
OSB + Kilz (2 coats) + 1 coat latex.
After all said and done, you hardly notice the seams, and the texture is barely noticeable unless up close.

Yes - I've had good results with Kilz over OSB, so I think I'll prime with Kilz, then apply an OIL based paint over that. Then I'll decide if I want to add a varathane to toughen it up.
Thanks...
sweet. Thanks. No Lowes up here, I'll see what the Borg has...
OK,
I have essentially a box built out of MDF. The screw holes have been filled with drywall mud & sanded. I'm going to paint the entire thing, then I need to clear coat it for a nice hard...
Here is a quick 3D model of something I have to build this for my office
Just soliciting some input to see what the best way to go about it is. I will most likely build it to be about 6' high,...
And here are the files:
I re-created this layout sheet to help me plan the layout of my new shop. I quickly threw it together in Photoshop, so you can move all the tools around to where you want them. Alternately, you can...
I JUST finished the same last weekend. I used Kilz for the primer on recommendations from others here. Note that the Kilz gets about a third less coverage over OSB then stated.
One can is...
WOW.
I posted this yesterday afternoon, just to vent, and first thing this morning I have an email in my inbox from Woodworkershaven asking me to call and rectify the situation. I truly didn't...
I rarely ever feel motivated enough to comment on service issues, having spent a lot of time on both sides of the register in my life, but I just had to vent my frustration with woodworkershaven.com....
Simple question for those who've done it:
Do you skim coat your OSB AFTER you prime or before. Logic would say after you've sealed, no?.
Well, these are going to be looooong benches! Most likely:
1 at 16-20'
2 at 12-14'

The only problem I had with 36" depth was that it made...
Hey folks,
I'm just walling in my shop this weekend and building the counters/benches along the walls after that. I'm going to build utilitarian 2x4 framing, with MDF on top.
What are the...

If I wanted to try our the bostik Topcoat, I have to remove the past wax?
I just use past wax.
I live in a pretty dry climate. I just refurbished an old Rockwell / Beaver 6200 TS, that had been sadly neglected for years. It had hardly any rust on it due to the climate....
Interesting.
I just installed my shop lighting, but haven't had any flickering issues.
Does anyone have any recommendations on reducing humming? I have 8 DBL 4' fixtures, and 2 hum, although...
