Sure sounds doable. As Jim said, you do need the 4th wire for ground. Since it's in conduit (?) you could always run that 4th wire if need be. If, by chance, the conduit is metal, that can be your...

In my NE Ohio County the building department requires "garage" (so I'm using the same standards for my shop) receptacles to be at least 24" above the floor and, of course, GFCI. I don't know the...

HI,

I've had good luck going to my local library or university library and finding what they have. Usually, it's pretty limited but it's a start. But, they can get an interlibrary loan from...

My pulley set screw used to come loose. It caused slippage, but not the movement you described. You are right, it is a pain to work on. I ended up using a 3" holesaw and cutting an access hole...

Thanks for the input. I may try to make something - always better to try something first than to end up with more equipment we don't need or like.

I've done some of that as well. It's still like needing four hands. I use a lot of melamine and those slippery surfaces are hard to keep contained while I'm trying to line them up.

Yahoo!! That is EXACTLY it. Thanks. Now why couldn't I find those things?

HI,

I was also shopping in Dec. I picked up the last of the closeout deals on the PM 66 on Amazon. I was also very frustrated with the availability and pricing of used products. In that search,...

I got the laser about 10 years ago and it's been wonderful. I'm just getting to the point that it's a little harder to see that small print. In my late 40's now and Dr. said by 45 most need reading...

HI All,

I've seen these in photos but can't find them by searching. So, maybe I'm searching for the wrong description.

I'm looking for an assembly bracket that slips on, say a top and side of...

HI,

I had some old 2 1/2" x 1 1/2 angle (about 1/8" thick stuff) with holes punched through the length. Looks like it might have been some type of shelving uprights in a prior life. I cut them...

Thanks, Mike. I googled that Wixley gage & ended up ordering one tonight. Looks like a great little accessory.

I hate basements!! Unfortunately, we are battling mother nature and guess who usually wins?

A basement is a big bowl of porous material in water.

Truly, you can't stop water from coming in if...

Me Again,

I've got it together & operating. Gives me a couple more questions.

I adjusted the tilt stop to 90 & 45. The initial setting was set to 0 on the dial, but blade was off a couple...

Thanks,

Sounds like I'll be in good shape with me set up.

Mike, I also had a chance to get through to the Tech support at PM. He had to ask around, but came back with the same basic thing you suggested. He said as long as it was a little lower than the...

Yes, I think Art hit it here. As a suggestion, it sounds like it would be safe enough and nothing to lose to simply put in a 30 amp breaker with the 10 gage wiring and run them together as such and...

Mike,

Thanks for the input. This is very helpful. I will do as you suggest with the rails.

Hi Mike,

My motor plate says 24 amp also. The manual calls for 40 amp breaker & 10 gage wiring. I read other posts here about the startup, in some cases, tripping a 30 amp breaker - so some...

I have a fair amount of knowledge in this area, but am not the expert. So, here's my input.

The breaker amps protect whatever is on that circuit to that extent. So, a 30 amp breaker would not...

Hi -

I have one of each. As stated, the worm drive is larger & more powerful. That, in itself, kind of gives you the pros & cons.

When I can use either, I prefer the smaller, lighter...

HI All,

PM 66 5HP/1 phase finally came. I'm working on the set up now. So far, here are my questions:

1. What is an acceptable diagonal table flatness tolerance? Mine is .006" as measured...

If you can get a magazine subscription on ebay you save a lot. I renewed my FWW for three years a little while back. Sorry, I can't remember what I paid but it was about one-half of what it would...

Hi,

My shop floor was poured about 4 years ago. It has a fiber product in it that's supposed to make it stronger. I had it finished smooth rather than textured or broomed or anything. After...

Hi Tom,

I got the delay unit in and installed today. Works great. I put in 470k ohm resistor and that gives me about 70 seconds which seems about right.

What would I use if I wanted this to...
