Thanks Jim for the info. I think I found a better source. W. D. Lockwood in New York. Their website is http://www.wdlockwood.com/main.html. Does anyone have any experience with these people?

I’ve been experimenting with Aniline dyes for a couple of months now and would like to find a good commercial source to purchase them in larger quantities (1/2 lb) than those offered by may of the...

If you are running the slower speed gears you are probably running the 26 and 24 tooth set. They are the set which run the mid range feed rates. The 16 and 34 tooth gear set run the slowest...

I sure did!!! And I'll have to think hard if spending the money is worth it. They don't wear out they only get lost! I'm sure willing to pay a reasonable price for but paying 30% of what a new...

I just purchased an older 34-985 Delta Stock Feeder. It runs great but two of the feed gears are missing. I need the 34 and 16 tooth feed gears. I think the part #s are 1340380 (34Teeth) and 1340381...

Their junk to say the least!

Since you’re a one man shop you can only operate one machine at a time right? If that's the case, and you have an average size shop, a 3HP system is an overkill. Second as you state almost all home...

I just finished a set of oak cabinets for a client. I used a black water based stain made by Saman , and then clear coated them. They came out very nice! (date on pictures is wrong)

Anybody have a good handle on writing macros and formulas with Microsoft Excel? I'm trying to put together a worksheet to give me build info and cut lengths for drawer/door fronts, boxes, etc. for...

I also had the same issues as the rest of you. The binding problem got worse the more I used the router, to the point that adjusting the height was such a PITA that I was going to pitch it and buy a...

When you say you run the materials "backwards over the saw" do you mean from the outfeed side to the infeed side of the table? If so whats wrong with just turning the blade around in the arbor and...

First and foremost you should put a price tag on your health. What do you think holds plywood, particleboard and MDF together? Phenolic Resins! The dust from this stuff will flat out kill you. If...

Thanks everyone for the info. Most my questions have been answered.

I would really like to go the airless but I can't justify the cost, versus material waste. I think if I were doing bigger runs...

Thanks for the info.

I have a lot of experience using standard pressure spray equipment. I just have not used HVLP and want to get a opinions on how much reduction in over spray is really gained...

Can I assume I do not need a turbine to deliver air to a HVLP spray gun if I already have compressed air in my shop which is dried, cooled, regulated, and can deliver the CFM's required to run a HVLP...

Just finished unpacking and setting up my very first jointer. A new W1741 Jointer. I have some rookie questions. (I hope someone has a copy of their instruction book handy)
Had no problems getting...

After much consideration and the general consensus on the nice job the SF HHS blades do I've decided to get the SF1741 and use the money I save to by carbide when the time comes to refurbish my...

The Grizzly G0490 is $795 + $144 for shipping for a total of $939. The 490X is $1195 + $144= $1339 with freight. The Shop Fox is $886 freight included. Since Shop Fox is in fact a Grizzly'...

If I get what your saying it might be worth getting the Fox 1741 at $886 and buying the cutter as an extra. So you'd have $886 + $349 = $1235 vs $1069 for the 2HP griz. That's $166 more for...

Which would you buy and why?

A Shop Fox SF W1741, 8" parallelogram adjustable bed, 3 HP motor, 4 HHS cutterhead. Selling price $886; or A Grizzly G0593, 8" with dovetail ways, 2 HP motor and a...

Spent the summer getting insulation into the ceiling and walls of my shop. Now have to pick some type of heat.. Shop is 500 square feet 8 ft ceiling. I don’t want to run a gas line because of the...

Bruce:

I agree! At that price you can send the blade out and have someone else clean and sharpen it!
