tried both face jointed and rough. no difference.

This is what I'm thinking now. Or dull blades. But definitely some sort of periodic oscillation.

setting everything to factory was the first thing i did. took 6 hours and a lot of patience.

I'm thinking this may be an issue of dull blades "lifting" the wood. But they are new (old stock) blades, so I find that hard to imagine.

One of the (many) positions I set it to was the exact manufacturer specs. No change.

The bed rollers are below the table surface... I've tried adjusting the chipbreaker and pressure bar in all sorts of positions. If I have them apply a lot of pressure, it reduces the scalloping but...

Bed rollers are at 0. Feed speed is slow. the scallops are about 1/4" long. Regular knives. This is not scalloping caused by simple knife misalignment.

And no, no gloating here. Its just a nuisance so far

They aren't from the roller serrations, but occur in the same frequency as roller marks would.

Hi all,

I picked up a G1033 and spent the better part of 5-6 hours tuning it. I'm having a real heck of a time trying to get it not to scallop (especially when planing long boards). The scallops...

Many people love them but I have had 0 luck with timberwolfs. I got a couple of Sterling blades from Highland (their generic line is apparently Sterling)...

either of the capacitors could be bad. They are cheap and easy to replace.

I had the same issue with my RK blade. The guys at Laguna even offered to sharpen it for free since it didn't cut right out of the box. After sharpening, it lasted for a short period of time before...

The American nickel also costs more to produce and maintain than its face value.

For you econonerds out there (not sure why we're in this forum, since there's probably only 2 of us on here),...

I've got a bunch of similar pieces up on the shelf, but more like 20 years old. All Claro walnut that I can't bring myself to chop up.

I have a milwaukee 5625. the "above the table" built-in height adjustment is garbage. It's like 3 TPI or something horrible. Plus, loosening the clamp introduces error into the equation anyway so...

Build it yourself! It only takes about half a year and several injuries and then it'll work about 25% as well as a woodmaster. AWESOME.

At home depot or any of the "big box" stores you can get a 4'x8' sheet of styrofoam that makes an excellent sheet goods support while you cut the plywood. You just set the ply on the styrofoam and...

bear in mind that negaive pressure on your hot water heater flue can present a problem...

all my dust collector hoses are stained yellow from cutting ipe. Owned.

No, usually the "torque limiter" kicks in before that!

I integrated the dust collection into the torsion box underneath of the phenolic top piece. The router table itself then technically has the whole capacity of the 6" ducting should the need arise. It...

My craftsman drill press has this cool torque limiting feature. When I try to drive it too hard, the bit stops automatically in the workpiece even though the motor keeps running. Some RPMs are...

I don't understand why you ran fiber either... what was the advantage?

never mind - lightning storm concerns?
