I appreciate the low down on what a used Unisaw might go for. This give me a starting point. Thanks.

Your right. Mine is the 3HP 240V unit. I'll do some searching on Craigslist. I've seen some pretty ratty looking beat up Unisaws on EBay. Mine has been used all these years in a 'one off' small shop....

I'll wait to hear from Sharkguard but I'm am more and more leaning your way. I might be able to get $500 for my saw on Craigslist. I retrofitted it with an Biesemeyer Fence. That might be a plus.

Thank you for the explanation. This differences between a riving knife and a splitter were known to me. It is probable that the length of the throat on my Unisaw may not be long enough to retrofit a...

I do appreciate this.

Can anyone direct me toward an aftermarket source of riving knifes? I own a 36-812 Delta Unisaw. TIA

More then just $0.02... I don't know which way I'll go re: the vacuum system. The Dust Deputy connected to my Shop Vac would for now be an economical solution. However that Festool CT Midi looks...

Dan, thanks for your input. I continue to heed Prashun's admonition to not rush into making a decision one way or another. I am going through an equipment acquisition/upgrade phase and only have...

About the CMT cutters, I was under the impression that the Domino cutters threaded on to the spindle. Amazon has CMT cutters that thread on to the Domino? TIA

Good read. It is reassuring to hear that you have been using the 500 for 7 years and have used it in conjunction with exterior doors and such. I have been thinking about what Prashun said and now...

This is good advice that you are giving me Prashun. I am going to chill for a bit. I have read elsewhere that the 700 can be fatiguing to use. So I will mull this over while working in the shop.

Very cool! I downloaded the complete PDF. Making the shop vacuum and the Dust Deputy system. Thanks very much.

Whoops. My bad. Eyeballs dancing around with doing all these searches. How do the Domi-shims work when you are working with material less than 20mm?

I'm getting a lot of good information about vacuum options. Thanks

I'd really like the best of both worlds and may have found it. Marc Spagnuolo did an article titled: "Domino DF500 vs Domino XL DF700 – Which is Right for Me"?...

Thanks Jim.

Thanks James. I'm on it.

Okay Prashun,
Thanks for all of these additional tidbits. I did just find out that one can have the best of both worlds. As it turns out Seneca Woodworking has made a nifty adapter for the 700 that...

Yes I have heard that the platform the 700 has is much for stable thus the cuts are less prone to error. Your name is familiar so perhaps you were the one I recall mentioning this.

I apologize in advance if this topic has come up before. I'm about ready to spring for a DF 500. I have 'concluded' that it would be a much more versatile machine re: case goods, etc. As long as I am...

Aprons are generally 4" wide and between 3/4 & 7/8 thick. I'm using poplar for the aprons. The plan is to apply milk paint to the aprons and legs. I live in the heart of Amish country (Lancaster,...

Please refer to my response to Prashun.

Ha-ha. I like you comment: 'beautiful table than beautiful board'. You make a good point. And you are right: I have to find my own truth. I like that as well. In any event, I have decide to rip the...

Best way I might describe the build is a hybrid tavern table with Hepplewhite style legs (tapered two ways) The breadboards may or may not be made out of the flame birch. (I don't want to get too...

I am visualizing that - the 15 sandwiched between two 10's. It might make the table 'look' like it is a bit wider than otherwise. Thanks. I'll think on it. So you think a 3" overhang all sides is...
