I have thousands of small blocks to sand, mostly to ease the corners.

So, I've investigated this issue about once every year. There is no Form. free Baltic Birch. There are formaldehyde free domestic option like apple ply and euro ply, there are both great products...
Jamie,
Apple Ply is great but about 2x as much.
Plus, 3/8" is a special order which kills the deal.
thanks Mac!
I use a lot of baltic birch, 3/8" thick or 9mm. Over the years I've heard a rumor that there is formaldehyde free B Birch but it comes in 4x8 sheets rather than 5x5. I've talked to my suppliers but...
I remember as a kid putting my tongue on a 9 volt battery, it tingles a bit. Pretty much the same thing as I felt. There was one 4" strand of wire coming out of the housing. Replaced the wire and no...
Mine wore out, the wire broke through the housing and I got a shock as I was lubing the rails. In addition, one of the diodes had dimmed. Not sure if that ws a short due to frayed wires or a diode...
Hi,
I have a checkmate laser, from pics it looks quite like a Rabbit laser.
I'm interested in replacing the alignment diodes. The wires are rather thin that supply their power and with the back and...
Have you looked at the laser, perhaps it's on the downside of it's lifespan.
I have a Camaster Stinger I with a PC router, I cut 3/8" baltic birch every week. I use onsrud 1/4" compression bits and cut in one pass at 125ipm. I could go faster, but I find this speed works...
I've had the 555x for 4 years now. I do a lot of tight radiuses with a 1/4" blade and resaw with a 3/4" blade in maple, cherry and maple.
I added a riser block so I have 12" of resaw capability....
I bought a Stinger I, with a PC router 2 years ago. Previously I had another brand that was half the price. I use the Stinger in a professional shop and it's very, very good. Stout, well designed and...
I have the same drill press, big improvement from my Jet. I think you'll like it.
I have both. The dewalt does a better job at dampening the vibration and it has a higher rpm. The excaliber table is large, but the coated table flakes off. My excaliber needed repair at 6 months, my...
good luck with festool on this one, I had none. The flange is $55.
The pads wear out pretty fast, in comparison with most others. From my research, a lot of folks strip these out.
It's incredibly...
I've found the female threads on the flange to be very easy to strip out. Try some loctite, see if that helps.
A friend lent me a CEROS for the next few weeks, looking forward to it.
I've read on the Festool Owners forum, that the pads tend to wear out fast and a lot of folks have had the screws strip.
FYI,...
Victor,
I was not very clear. I've had 2 in 4 years. My first had an electrical problem at 3 years and 2 months.
The thing that's driving me nut is stripping out the threads when putting on a new...
Hi All,
I want to replace my Festool 125 sander. My first one died after 2 years and I've had had stripped screws when replacing the pads numerous times.
I want something lightweight that I can...
I have both the dewalt(type II) and an excaliber, the next size up from what you are looking at. I use them in a commercial shop - cutting 3/4" hardwoods - maple, cherry and walnut. My first dewalt...
I think the solution is a single line font.
Hi Mike,
I'll check out that link.
The pic is what I wanted, I don't want to fill it.
I'd like to have the option of no fill or outline. perhaps it's my font choice.
Hi All,
I'm pretty new to laser engraving.
All my text work transfers to an outline of the font, which is fine most of the time.
However, for my business name I'd like it just a single line so I...
Richard is great to work with. I purchase all my blades and router bits from him.
Good prices, great customer service, fast shipping.
My shop is 19'x10'. I have a small Camaster CNC, a grizzly table saw with router wing, a large workbench with a scroll saw, spindle sander and a ridgid belt sander. I also have a 14" bandsaw and new...
