Thanks, guys. I did a couple of test cuts in 1x3 maple this morning - does not affect use in the slightest. I opted to hang on to it and deal with the broken tooth when the saw needs sharpening.

I saved one with my foot once (in sandals). Do not recommend - that severed two tendons in my middle toe.

Hi all,
Long time lurker with maybe a few posts in my distant past.
I recently bought a fine crosscut panel saw (10pt) and upon receiving it, noticed that the 2nd tooth from the toe is broken. The...

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the link to tfguild -- definitely a nice site, doesn't look like they have anything coming up though (from some cached web search links, looks like I may have just missed one in...

Hi All,
New house, looking to put in a stand-alone woodshop.

Would love to do a timber frame (thinking a L layout with 17.5' sides (minus a 7.5' square cutout on the corners)

250 sq ft limit....

Um, right. What he said^ When I said it hadn't changed design, I meant from original release to the OP's design. It has of course changed since then... and would necessitate way less work in...

The Unifence rail hasn't changed design - I recently drilled extra holes for mine to mount the fence to an HD shaper next to my unisaw (actually drilled more than I needed because I changed my mind...

I'd be interested in one for an older uni, with or without the digital readout.

Seriously cool.

Having just cut my rail down to fit my unisaw/shaper composition with an abrasive wheel on a CMS, I can attest to them being quite heavy duty... as if lifting the d@mn thing around the shop wasn't...

After posting the site, I spent some time reading it and I can't say that my gut agrees with some of the information there, particularly the comment on how edging doesn't matter if it is in front of...

I have heard that joint called a sage-kama, David Fay used it in a bed of his:

racking motion,...

I don't know what vintage the unisaw you are looking at is, but if the current 3 phase motor is a 'bullet' motor, then you will either have to find another bullet motor (single phase tend to be...

wow.
stunning work and excellent use of mixed media.

thanks for sharing,

The answer (as with most things) is: it depends.
I am not an expert in calculating loads and whether a shelf will bend, nor do you mention what wood you are using (it makes a difference) The...

I'm wishing I had at least put a subpanel or disconnect in when I wired my shop. As I am going to have to redo the 220 anyway (I need way more outlets than I thought... who knew I'd have so many big...

The pipes are angled slightly (5-10 degrees) and are about 20" long (I got 6 from a 10' length of EMT, so minus kerf...) the holes are about 2 - 2 1/2" deep so there is probably 17"+ of pipe exposed....

I read a number of the "pipe in an angled hole" lumber rack posts here on the creek and decided to try my hand at it, as my shop was unusable due to clutter (some of that was even wood!) I inquired...

I had a similar issue with my PM 14" BS http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=130813 (broke in a different casting, but same assembly)

Grizzly may replace it on warranty (easiest to get all...

thanks! (and sorry for thread-stealing... I am sure there is a place in he-doublehockeysticks reserved for the likes of me...)

If I could glom onto this, seeing as it sounds like the OP's question has been answered (and this is related) - how do you (or do you) get the fence set so it doesn't lift on the backside when locked...

having done this today on a couple of huge pieces of 12/4 cupped poplar and bogging the blade down multiple times and scaring the cr@p out of myself more than once, use a bandsaw. seriously.

I...

I think it kinda depends - the vintage unisaw cabinet (yes, it is a lighter saw) actually has 3 contact points on the floor, even though it looks like a continuous rim around the base. Basically...

Apparently the JET assembly is sold/replaced as a complete assembly for this exact reason - the PM is not, but Tech Support is (as of this morning) shipping me all of the parts to put a "new" one...

I posted a while back that I had ordered a PM PWBS-14 and a PM 54A. They were part of a T-day special and I got (IMOATT - in my opinion at the time) a good deal on them through my local San Carlos...

wow.
that's all I can say about it - I'm with Greg on both the transport and the shop space - I barely have room for my PM 54A

but somebody is going to be very happy indeed.
