First - I'm biased - i have a 3520B. I bought it about 8 months ago after a lot of research. I looked at Laguna but don't remember the model - I have a Laguna Bandsaw I've been happy with but have...

I bought an 18' and wish I would have gotten the 20".

That's all I use - mostly 3/8" - 4tpi hook tooth from Woodcraft Bands - best prices I have found, fast shipping. These things seem to last forever but I remember hearing that some saws can't tension...

I think all do a good job. Oneida, in my opinion, is a higher quality unit than the others - especially the motor and impeller.

Yes, I own an Oneida.

Good luck

It sounds like you are willing to spend a little more to get it right. If I were in your position, I would use 3/4" plywood, not OSB and nail white oak hardwood over it. A bit of oil/poly or...

Actually, the rule is that the AC should cool the air 20 degrees. So if the shop is 100, you will get 80 degree air, as the shop cools down, so will the temperature of the air the ac makes until you...

I used deckmaster when I built my deck 10 + years ago - there weren't that many systems available back then but I am very happy with it. I used Ipe decking so I dont' think the CAMO system would...

To me - it didn't seem to be a "slight" difference - it seemed to be a BIG difference. Why can't Oneida get credit for the best cyclone?

Bill's site certainly has a lot of useful information no doubt about it. That being said, I believe it to be a bit extreme. One can have 5000 cfm at a machine but if the port and hood are not...

The door to get into this area faces a wall 4' away - actually it faces another door but it is an exterior door with a built-in sill so wheels wouldn't work. Good idea though, I hadn't thought of...

Here is the dilemma: I have 3 primary places I store wood -
1. In a shed - mostly common and mediocre quality lumber
2. In the stand up location shown in the first photo on the left
3. In the...

A double 2x6 would almost never be strong enough for a load bearing wall. I wouldn't worry about the splicing in the plates, if you have the right header, it won't make a difference. The double...

That is a thing of beauty!!!

It would seem that placing it in that location would work to amplify the sound, has that been the case?

GReat shop!!

While I understand the idea of the poll, it has way too many holes in it to provide meaningful data. Some of the obvious issues:

- Saw availability - how long has the SS been available?
-...

I lied - by accident. I have a 16" saw (Laguna) but it only resaws 12" - I voted 16" and hit return too quickly. I can't unvote.


Sorry.

Sweet!!!!!

That looks awesome!!!

I agree with the others that you can hire this out for not a whole lot more than you can do it yourself - especially when you consider time.

Will you be leaving the...

Duct sealant - paints on - easy to use and not as messy.

In the words of Crocodile Dundee "That's not a 6" PVC 90...THAT'S A 6" PVC 90"

I buy 90% of woodworking related items on line. Amazon and Lee Valley mostly. The rest is a combination of big box and maybe 1% Woodcraft - who has a good selection of finishes.

I agree that...

This jointer was never run by the previous owner - still had(has) cosmoline all over it. I'm going to test the capacitor this weekend and might take it to a motor shop to have them go over it.

I should have posted more information - The cord is 10g, 600v 6 ft. long - plugged into and outlet 5 ft. from panel - 10g wire on this outlet also. I have 3 other 3 hp machines - Oneida SDG, RBI...

Sorry - motor is 220v - wired into 220v circuit. I didn't know they made 3 hp motors for 120v.

I', hoping this is a simple one, at least for you electrical heads out there. My BIL made an extension cord for my new-to-me 3hp,1 phase 12" jointer - plugged it in, something buzzed and nothing...

My advice - keep the cutie in your avatar and divorce the other woman in your life on the grounds of blasphemy. :rolleyes:

Good luck.
