The used Hammer C3-31 is the best shop decision I ever made. Just love that beautiful thing.
That is the exact device.
Ben,
fter reading your posts I built a couple of level sensors from the information you provided. As I posted upthread I'm using the Tork TRP power supply/relay which provides 24vdc 150mA whatever...
Guy,
You refer to Europe and to electrocution protection. In Europe electricity is 230v to ground, which means if you get a shock it has an electrical pressure of 230 volts through your body. That...
Jim,
have you seen this tool? http://www.lambtoolworks.com/products.html Simple but it allows very quick accurate setting to 90 degrees with removable thumbscrews and all the other common angles...
Can you clarify what you mean by 'get away with'? I suspect from the values you quote you are in New Zealand. If so, don't think you can conform to code with your proposed increase. In the US, that...
An electrician's view-
In the USA, which is where my training/experience is from, inrush is not a part of calculating feeder capacity. (We often call this type of circuit a feeder.) However, the...
Ben,
thanks for your help with the PNP thing. I went ahead and added the overfill sensor to my automatic (current sensing) DC controller I built today. DC turns on when the saw comes on and the...
Not entirely sure what you are looking for, but I've installed an Excaliber miter gauge and like it very much. I also recommend the Lamb Tool Works square to set the angle when you need vey high...
Hi Ben,
do you understand the PNP vs NPN question? Because it is going right over my head and I want to add one to a build I am in the middle of, a current sensing relay that will switch the DC...
I wonder if this would work:
The S18SN6FF100 sensor (~30 ebay) driven by a TORK TRP sensor (~$10 ebay) which takes 100 to 300vac and converts it to 24vdc to drive the sensor and provides a relay,...
Do you know the Lumen output of those fixtures? In a slightly smaller shop, 14' x 24' I have 17,000 lumens from four fixtures, plus a couple task lights. A little more would be great but it feels...
Hi Jim,
15/20 FC in a living room works for a lot of people, but many will choose 40/60 at a kitchen counter and some will require more, as you age you probably need another 20%. I have about 40 FC...
Yes, forum posts in any topic often move toward arcane and away from pragmatic. I guess we could develop some rules of thumb though.
In most shops, best bang for buck is still fluorescents. For...
Sorry, I did not realize Costco was selling a 4' Feit. I was specifically reffering to the FEIT 13.5 watt 850 lumen A-lamp replacement. (BPCEA19/OM800LED to be precise.) Most of the 4' LED products...
Dick,
you have identified an issue the pro's are wrestling with right now, strobing of LED lighting. Bugs some people and not others. In my office lighting lab we have a small desk fan to evaluate...
I have the Hammer C3-31, which is the A3-31 with a table saw and shaper/router attached to it, I just have the straight blades. I've never experienced the spiral cutters but don't see how they could...
If your fixtures are fluorescent tubes without a reflector hanging angled or straight doesn't matter. I prefer angled as the higher the lights the higher the perceived ceiling. Feels more spacious....
In my shop I've started to cover the walls with pre-finished 'shop ply' at the mill, easy to clean and good for holding things. In my garage I had to open a chase in the ceiling to run wiring and...
Could not agree more with Lon. Culturally in the US we tend to prefer warm light while in Europe a whiter light is preferred and in Asia we have to specify much whiter (higher color temp) sources. As...
Wondering what are you planning on lining the duct with to absorb the sound?
With respect to rips and working near the blade in general, I use the 8" rule. No part of me gets closer than that, ever. Sliders have a great feature in the t-slots when you make sliding clamps for...
Gene, do you like this?

Hi John,
I use straight blade plugs/receptacles for everything, but cut off the original ones and install right-angle plugs so the cord falls flat to the wall instead of sticking out and then down....
