It kind of sounds like maple heartwood to me.
I was kind of wondering the same thing, What is the advantage of having the larger feeder and is any advantage you get worth the extra cost?
Jim,
I have actually considered buying an Incra setup for the shaper but I think right now the price on the Felder fence is to hard to pass up. I will mainly be using it for cutting rails and stiles...
Thanks,
I'll give them a call right now!
I am looking for an aftermarket or replacement fence for a 3HP Delta shaper. I have checked Ebay and didn’t see anything. I’m just wondering if anyone here could point me in the right direction. I...
Take a look at Grizzly and Yorkcraft. I own a Yorkcraft 20" planer and have been very happy with it. You should be able to get either machine for aroud $800 shipped or a little less if you can buy...
I’m not sure where you are located but I know someone who is selling a 20” Jet with a 5HP motor and additional 2HP motor and about 6 blades for $750 in the Baltimore area. I personally have a Steel...
I usually buy through Amazon but the hinges actually ship from WW hardware. If you are buying 50 or more I believe it comes out better to order directly from WW Hardware.
Amazon has their Irwin 24" Quick Clamps on sale for $15.99 with free shipping. That is about a $10 savings per clamp I think. I don't use them for glue ups but since I bought some of the smaller ones...

I own a Whiteside rail and stile set and some of the CMT Sommerfeld rail and stile sets that I use for production work. That being said I have probably used the Woodcraft set to make 30 or 40...
I haven’t used the panel raising bit personally but I do have a set of the Woodcraft rail and stile bits I got on sale. I use them primarily on shop projects but the cut quality is really good and...
You don’t by chance have a Rousseau router plate do you? I ask this because I had one and had the same problem. The Rousseau plate is made with a slight crown which caused a lot of problems for me. I...
Thanks a lot John. The pics on the Wixey site are pretty good I just thought you might have a different twist to the installation. Once I get up to my neck in the install I may give you a call to...

Do you have any pics of the install on your Yorkcraft planer? I have a Yorkcraft 20” planer and have looked through the Wixey photo gallery and have a good idea how I am going to install mine...
For all you guys installing these on larger planers Wixey has a great gallery of these installed on larger machines. I just bought one for my 20” and couldn’t figure out how I was going to mount it...

I just used a self sealing lacquer for the finish (ML Campbell Magnamax). The walnut is all air dried which gives it that beautiful color. I typically try to stay away from sleamed kiln dried...

The bar is built from air dried walnut that I actually got from a fellow Creeker (Steve Strickler). The top is curly maple veneer and covered with ¼” of pour epoxy. The rest of the bar I...
Hi all, I’ve been lurking around here for quite a while and finally decided to stick my feet in. I am a serious hobbyist who has been doing more and more commission work lately. I have noticed and...
Randy, I’m a newbe here but since no one else is responding I will give it a shot. I just bought a Steel City Deluxe saw with the industrial fence and love it. The fit and finish is outstanding (much...
