If the motor is 3.5 amp, that may be too small. I doubt if it has the power to use a 1" diameter bit. I would pass and wait for a bigger one.

If it's stuck ( this happened on my last lathe) I chuck a 1x2 2 feet long (at a right angle to the spindle.) Lock the spindle, then pull on the 2 x 2.
I've heard that one drawback of pin style moisture meters is it only measures the moisture on the outer surface of the board. The moisture content on the inside may be higher.
Thank you. I ordered the Bighorn from Amazon.
For those of you that have replaced the magnetic motor starter on your Unisaw, did you get a replacement from Delta ( they have it for $470) or a third party?
This is for a 5hp, single phase motor.
I have some 4" thick x 26" wide white oak slabbed up from a tree in our yard. Once that dries, it will be my next bench. I reckon that should by sturdy enough.
I can buy low grade ( freshly cut) white oak for 60 cents a board foot in Northeast Tennessee.
When I saw "Old gas" I envisioned taco and refried bean day at the senior center.
We got about an inch of snow in Mountain City, TN. Just enough to scare the chickens. They don't like the snow. The snow should all melted today ( Dec 29).
We did have a 90 foot pine tip over due...
When you see the saw, try adjusting the guides and see how you like it. I have one that's older and I think it's a major pain in the neck to adjust the guides.
I made mine out of 1x6 material. Light and cheap. It sits on a couple of sawhorses. I don't worry about anyone taking it or if it gets rained on.
I use hot melt glue and it works well for me. I rough turn my blanks then let them dry. Once dry, I chuck the bottom and true the rim flat and round. I hot glue the rim to a piece of plywood then...
I have a 5/8". Is that close enough?
The closest I know is 8/4, kiln dried in Mountain City, TN. It's not mine and I think he sells it for $3 + per bd/ ft.
We picked a few cups from the one bush. The other three bushes are still too young to bear fruit. We are in Mountain City, TN.
On another Facebook group, the original poster admitted that he picked the starting bid $10 less than what one sold for on Ebay.
There is a Facebook group that has auctions every weekend. A seller had a starting bid of $310 for a Lie Neilson plane that sells for $265 (in stock) . I got kicked out of they group for breaking the...
I really like a hiking app called Alltrails. You can enter hike parameters such as waterfalls or ease of the hike.
+1 on buying quality outlets. I like using 20 amp outlets .
I went to Colonial Homestead last year. The guy was nice and quite the salesman. I took a Stanley #3 home with me. I plan to make another stop this September.
Kiem lumber was fabulous.My wife and...
If you have Facebook there is a group that has an auction starting every Friday and ending the following Sunday. You can set the starting bid at $1 or higher.
I have the American Beauty because I like a sliding head.
Someone one asked why not just buy a 3520 and save $3,000. For the extra money, I got a 3hp motor, 24" diameter swing and a tilt away...
We moved from Minnesota to northeast (Johnson County) Tennessee. We get some snow, but most of it melts in a few days. Fall is beautiful as the leaves start changing colors at the higher elevations...
I agree with John K Jordan, eastern Tennessee is a great place to retire.
We put ziplock bags on each of our apples. When I tell people that their first reaction is " isn't that a lot of work". My response is " so it spraying, and that's working for you, is it. A simple...
