I bought my 4240 w/ the helical head installed 3 years ago. If you end up going this route (helical) you won't be disappointed. It can flatten a 8" wide piece of purpleheart like butter. The best...
You'll find that there are many excellent jigs on the market and as many advocates for each. This topic has been breached numerous times on this site so my recommendation is do a search for dovetail...
I love the insert. The best thing about it is once you get it level there's nothing else you need to do. You just change out the wood insert to match the blade you're using no fuss no muss. I can't...
I have both (16" & 24") Akeda jigs with a dedicated router and I'm still learning but so far I've been able to produce very good through and half blind dovetails.
Roger,
Thanks for the link, I sent them an email inquiring about inserts for the PM66 because I didn't see them offered on their website. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they do. If they do...
Thanks for the reply. They don't look hard it's the time I don't like to lose but as they say "it is what it is." Your location looks familiar I know I've been there once or twice. Thanks again.
I have a Wood Dynamics ZCI in my PM66 and I'm in need of the red oak inserts that slide into the insert. The Wood Dynamics web page says they are temporarily out of stock but they've been saying that...
Thanks for all the great ideas. I'm off to build a jig right now.
This is probably a dumd question or one thats blatently obvious. What's the best method to cut the kerf in a new band saw insert in order to get it straight?
I'm curious why aren't they available anymore?
Remember a jointer is used to flatten one face before you plane it parallel. Are you sure both faces are parallel and exactly the same thickness on both ends before you begin jointing? If not it may...
I second the RBI Hawk.
Count me in. Thanks.
Count me in............thanks.
Count me in
Opt me in. Thanks
Ah Chris those were the days!
I was afraid of that. I should've bought them when I had the chance. They don't look to har to make but looks can be deceiving. I guess I'll look at making a couple of them this weekend. Thanks for...
I have a Wood Dynamics ZCI in my PM66 and I'm in need of the red oak inserts that slide into the insert. I used to have the web site bookmarked but it no longer exists or I'm not looking in the right...
Sounds like a great prize
That's where I bought mine.
I haie the Wixey and I've found it quite reliable and accurate. It's very easy to set the height on saw blades and router bits.
I've got the Woodpecker table and I like it very much. The table extensions are quite handy and the hold downs work very well. I also like the tables inserts. Only downside is the fench doesn't allow...
If you're going to upgrade why not consider a helical head replacement? If you work at all with figured wood you can't go wrong with it because it gives you very smooth results. I have the Powermatic...
