Also because on a commercial system, the drum is on the outlet, not the inlet, with the pressure coming from the inside of the drum (which it was designed for) instead of from the outside (which it...

By your guys estimation, the thicker the wood, the less your table saw would draw.

The most likely cause is a restriction in the dust collector. If the filters are clogged, it can't push the air...

Hmmm. General didn't sell it, didn't ship it, and sounds like they didn't break it. But they jump in and fix it. Also the General 480 is the best machine on the market. I don't know how you couldn't...

Yeah, I don't think I could be without my Fein vac either. Makes sanding almost (hack cough) enjoy--- (cough) able. :-)

If I had to start over, I'd have pretty much the same stuff, although I've traded a few in over the last few years.

1. LN Butt Mortise Plane - I bought it thinking if it was half as good as it...

Cause it was too easy to just stay with what everyone knew?

Seriously though, I don't think it matters. There is so much old stuff out there with standard fasteners, we will never be able to...

Or forget MS anything and move to Linux. Much much better. Switched over two months ago, havn't enjoyed using the computer like this since I was a kid :) Firefox has IE beat hands down, among other...

I don't think you can get a VFD for 7.5HP in single phase. Number 2 is an option, but most likely #1 is the cheapest. Not sure what is available in your area, but around here, a 10 HP rotary phase...

Don't underestimate the value of hand tools. Norm even uses that Yankee push drill still.

A second here! Don't burry him yet folks!

Also, to consider: He makes 13 episodes of NYW every year, plus 13 TOH. Taping a TV show a 1/2 long takes a LOT longer that 1/2 an hour. Also, remember,...

John,

The most simple calculation is d/D = s/S

d = "little pulley" diameter
D = "big pulley" diameter
s = "slower" speed
S = "faster" speed
*note: Bigger pulley is always at the slower...

Should work. Delta has their miter slot turned 90 to most mfrs (not sure why) but as you have stated, most work with the miter is short. If the piece is wide though, you may run into problems, but...

Actually slip is two things. In an induction motor (not sync) slip is necessary for the motor to work. The rotor is chasing the rotating stator field. (This is electro magnetic rotation, not...

You may get to see SCM / MiniMax at the Toronto show here coming up shortly (four weeks?)

Just rumours, but keep your eyes open.

Well, what goes out must come back in. If you are exhausting X number of CFM outside, you must have same X number of CFM coming back in. If you in a climate where you can work with the door or window...

Uh, well, pretty much. :) I had to clean the sides, as my ground down LN blade was a little narrow too.

Variable speed - not important. Small dovetail bits need to go full tilt for good results.

As for the router - do NOT buy DeWalt. No matter what they tell you, how cheap they will sell it to you....

Uhh... If you are looking down at the router table the bit is going COUNTER clockwise and feeding from right to left is correct with the wood between you and the bit. (I just went and checked my...

Thbbbbt! Screw that! I know you get snow over there on the other side of the lake :) :) :) We're getting a good dumping here in SW Ontario right now.

I'd build another 20-30 feet on the front of...

To start the cut, we place the blade on the end knife mark, paying attention to grain direction. Obviously, if we cut with the grain - disaster. Across...

Well, at the risk of repeating myself, here's some more detail on the LN BM Plane. There seemed to be some interest in it last time, so I took some more detailed pictures. Also, I know at heart you...

Are you living in a parallel dimension? :)

Seriously though... With the planner un-plugged take a block of wood, say two or three inches, (Doesn't matter exactly) and crank the planner cutterhead...

You can get one ballast to do four T8 bulbs. Officially, all T12 bulbs and ballasts will be off the market by 2010. Already, new fixtures can only be purchase as T8 or T5 which are much more...

You are correct, they are meant for t-bar ceilings, however, there is a trim ring available to mount them in drywall. Essentially it is a t-bar square. Not terribly expensive, but doubt you'll find...

Hmmmmm......... I connected mine to my Fein Turbo I which I just got and was promptly disappointed. Any secrets to making it work? I know it's not the vac, because I use it with my DW423 sander, and...
