That is a great point, more often then not my biscuits are too small for a perfect fit before having to soak in water...might be worth a resharpen for that purpose alone.

I am probibaly over doing it with even bothering to worry bout such a thing in a biscuit joiner but since I am going to replace the blade in my PC557 I figured I would ask.

Is there going to be...

Conventional as in by hand?

I wish no stationary tool was shipped with a cord; the first thing I do is remove it and replace it with one that suits my distance and amp requirements.

BTW, I have a G0514 and if you have room I...

I seem to notice it most the harder the wood species. No issue on poplar, some issues with walnut, and big issues on oak. I normally start with 120 or so if I milled the lumber but in this case I...

I have a Porter Cable 390 5" ROS that is always leaving squiggles behind that remain in the surface ready to make my hours of sanding look like crap. I realize that this could be 100% operator error...

Best to get / borrow a meter to make sure. I bought some syp last winter for a bench and was surprised to find it at 8% mc right off the rack at HD so you could get lucky. This time of year I would...

I am having quartersawn white oak baseboards installed in a conference room at work and I need to instruct the carpenters on how to finish it. I know how to get that fumed look on furniture but I...

Here are some updates:

the noise actually happens just after the motor gets up to full speed and almost definitely is coming from the rear of the motor. The fan seems tight but I will shim it...

No. It may go 30 seconds at full speed before fading into a light chirp then fading out...strange.

The noise is defiantly in the motor area, the only thing to do now is to take the belt off and remove the lower wheel from the equation.

I am sure it is motor and / or motor area related. I ran the machine first without the blade installed and that is when I first heard it.

I recently picked up a used g0514x that I tested out with zero issues or noise. I got the machine home and noticed that sometimes it chirps when running at full speed (no load and with load). The...

Thanks for all the replies. I will just use these for general purpose drilling so it is good to know that the square shank types will fit.

I just picked up my first brace this weekend, a 10" no.965 and would like some guidance on bits. I am not sure if there are various styles that fit various types of chucks but is there a specific...

I am distracted by the awesome bench!!!!

I confirmed that price at Highland's website.

I just can't respect that as an intro price; I think I will pass. Or buy a laguna just to send a message.

The 3hp version is $1799 according to Rikon. I have to question the sales strategy on this one...

I called their service dept yesterday and asked about this, I was told that they were just having website trouble...the bandsaws are back to normal now.

Now that you have used this setup for some time how is it working out? Do you see a need for a third member running down the middle of the machine for support or have you captured enough of the...

Do the grizzly bases interfere with the lower door?

If you have access to a band saw I would buy 5/4 or 6/4 and resaw it to near 1/2"

Sweet dovetails!

The first frame and panel I ever built was on the tool chest lid as well as the first deep mortise and tenon joint so now I have some experience under my belt for when I redo my kitchen cabinets.

I am a hybrid woodworker (hand and power tools) in a non climate controlled garage. This chest fits perfectly under my out feed table, so no wasted floor space and with vapor emitting corrosion...
