...like others have said the packaged weight is about 250# or so. If you have no one to help assemble here's how I did it myself. Assembled the base. Took the top wheel off to reduce weight...
...nothing wrong with the fence. Maybe not the best but good enough for my needs. Can be left in normal upright position for cuts about 4" thick or so. Can also be positioned 90 degrees over to get...
:) ...no disturbing vibration. Set it up with a "Woodslicer" blade from Highland Hardware. Only ran a few test cuts so far but no regrets. Really like the large cast iron table and fence is no...
...just ordered 8 for $35.92 + tax. Total $38.43 thanks to Mike for supplying the Promo code for free shipping. I thought I was on the Rockler email list but I guess it was just from the local...
...installed the 1/8" kerf model with UHMW ZCI on my Bosch 4000 TS and works as advertised. Also use "Gripper" to great advantage. Well thought out products.
...works well enough for me. I upgraded with a 1/2" Woodslicer blade from Highland Hardware for resawing and am contemplating adding a Kreg fence to it. May also just make a fence for it. Not as...
....with the Woodpeckers logo
...been putting off getting one but combined with a smaller purchase and got the $30 off promo so was less than $100 + free ship. Learning curve is very short. Included DVD helped with that. Works...
...had a large hickory felled a few years ago and needed a new saw to cut up to firewood length. Got a Stihl MS260 Pro and had them replace the 16" bar with a 20". No problem with the 26" dia....
...Spax work ok but seem to strip out easier than some coated combo Phillips/square drive type I got at Home Depot. I think they're called Deckmaster but don't have the box anymore. Work great with...
Bosch 4000...smooth..powerful...I can carry it!!!...gravity drop folding stand a marvel...use full kerf blades no problem...miter gauge sucks so got Incra 1000SE and fine as can be
Bosch 4000 and 50+ yr old Shopmaster 8"
Picked up a Diamond Edge comparable to a Stanley #5 off the "bay" last week. It seems to be very well made and, unlike other DE's I've seen, has a blued iron and cap iron, lever cap either plated or...
Winchesters were made by both Stanley and Sargent (Sargents have 4 digit # behind frog starting with 30..). At least that's for the standard line. Not sure about the Bedrock comparable ones.
...one of the more unpleasant ways to expire.
...carried a large Craftsman brand for over 20 years and finally lost, or misplaced it a month ago. Got a Case XX to replace it. I use the large clip point blade quite a bit but the sheepfoot one...
...a Model 9, Model 14 and Madel 18 (Stanley equivalent #4, #5, and #6) and they are very nice. Did a bit of research and they are supposed to perform well. I haven't got into using them yet as...
...got the Bosch 3850 18V about a year ago on Amazon/Tool Crib closeout sale. It has the NiMH batteries and about 435 in/lb torque...weighs not much more than the DeWalt 9.6V it replaced...runs...
I'll second the nomination for the Incra 1000 SE.
Mark...decided when I got my Jet 6" that it would be adequate. If I had an 8" I'd probably want a 12" or 16". My projects will be predominantly in the Arts and Crafts (Mission) style and I can't...
I have one and like it a lot. Even more so since I put a Shop Fox mobile base on it (shop's only 10' X 16'). Planed lots of white and red oak and still on the first set of knives.
Here in Hotlanta HD has ruled the roost for far too many years. In the 21 years we've been here they ran off Handy City and Builder's Square and dominated the market for awhile after. Lowe's moved...
...the Borgs sell mostly, if not all, TK (thin kerf) series Freuds. I have had decent results with them but prefer the LU's. The LU series (full kerf) are not so prevalent but rather good. I have...
I also got the Incra 1000 SE from Woodpecker's. So far it's great.
