My issue with Delta is with rebates. Several years ago I bought the 18-900 with a $100 dollar rebate. After waiting more than 6 months with no rebate check in hand, I started emailing them. After...

I second this!

The internet has a way of raising expectations and setting standards far above what is required. I have fallen into that trap many times. Getting older and wiser (I hope).

Contacted Felder/Hammer today. The adapter is actually a 120 -> 100 mm adapter. 100mm is just slightly less than 4". In case anyone else is interested. Part number 02.2.021

One more question. I'm thinking of using an expandable style hose so I can move the machine without too much resistance that might come from a stiffer hose, something like the Dust-right or the hose...

Thanks to all. Great ideas! I knew I came to the right place! :)

I'd like to try the blade guard collector but have yet to figure out how best to hook it up. The dust collection line comes from a...

Wondering what others are doing for dust collection on this machine.

I have a 6" dust collection system but the port on the Hammer is somewhere between 4" and 5". The hose internally is about 3...

I have 3 dust deputies, 2 Ultimates and 1 with the buckets. I love them! I am one of those that reported static shocks, but it was only on my newer UDD. I ran a piece of aluminum metal tape on the DD...

Begs the question: Why does Festool sell a non-static dissipating hose?

A piece of metal tape, like that used for metal HVAC duct cut about 3/4" wide, run from tool hose inlet port on the DD and down to one of the bolts holding the cyclone to the DD dust storage unit did...

Music is pleasant background "noise". It's not like I'm totally engrossed in the music that I will put my hand in front of a blade.

I have been reading reviews of many hearing protection/radio...

The K3 is 4Hp, 220V (AKA 240V). 20 Amp is all you need. This was a factor, though not major, in my decision to go with the K3. My shop has numerous 20A 220V outlets. No rewiring needed, I have...

Call Felder/Hammer, it is available ,as I ordered it with my new Hammer K3. :) Part number is correct.

Thanks everyone. I was pretty sure they wouldn't be coast effective beyond a certain length.

I couldn't agree more. Did Festool intentionally design this vacuum hose to hang up on edges of material? I think they want to sell you the boom arm (and a vac bigger than the Midi to support it)....

At what length do parallel clamps loose their parallelism or any other advantage? For example, Jet offers a 98" parallel clamp. Is it better than a pipe clamp at that length?

The Festool catalog shows that all dust extractors have the same size hose except the CT36AC, same noise level, same suction, and same maximum vacuum. So if you need to add boom arms etc. then maybe...

I used all 3/4" plywood. The long sides have 5 openings instead of four. I didn't like 24" between supports. They're about 18" on center now. I didn't do the half rabbit/dados. I did full width...

I recently purchased a Fastcap Metric/Standard tape measure. I bought it to help me with standard to metric (think Festool). The metric edge is finer resolution than the standard edge, I find it...

With regards to paste wax, are there any issues with the wax transferring to the workpiece, thus potentially causing a finishing problem for the workpiece?

Also, so far I've only found Minwax...

Many searches on the web turned up Watco danish oil, among others. Wasn't sure what would prevent glue from sticking but could be "renewable". Watco and paste wax sounds like the trick!

Thanks!...

I'm building a large MFT assembly table. I am using borg 3/4 maple plywood. I'm wondering what finish makes the most sense. I'm thinking Arm-R-Seal. Is that a good choice for removing glue, resisting...

I contacted them about this as well . Normally when more items are added to a purchase the shipping cost does not double, triple etc. They said call them and they would see what they could do. A flat...

Thanks Ryan! Great info and great videos!

The scoring blade on my quote is $113. The quote also includes a 250mm (10") Universal blade for $75. Does anyone know if the Hammer 250mm is a worthwhile...

Bas, saw blade cost is a good point, but I currently own only one really good blade, Woodworker II. I tried to find some examples of blade cost: 5/8" bore vs the Hammer/Felder style. Didn't see it on...

Thanks Mark!

A lot of Hammer responses and not much on the Grizzly side. I'd like to hear more from Grizzly owners. $3K is nothing to sneeze at! I can buy a lot of toys for $3K!

The Grizzly is...
