Nothing about this question implies anything other than a single phase 240v branch circuit which is usually wired with 3 wires - 2 hots and a ground, no neutral (at least in my jurisdiction) and...
Typically, start capacitors, unlike run capacitors, are intermittent use devices. There's no more certain way to blow them than to keep them energized for more than a few seconds (exact time will...
Difference in local codes?
My shop has several 240v branch circuits, each of which has multiple 240v receptacles and only one breaker for each circuit, certainly not one breaker for "each...
I cannot speak to every tablesaw model available, or even to those you mention as being of interest. But, what you describe is not an unusual condition. My Jet cabinet saw (JTAS-10XL) is the same as...
Too high a tooth count for anything much over 1/4 to 3/8 inch thick. Gullets are too small and load up much too quickly to use in anything thicker.
3/16" or 1/4" x 4 tpi would be a better choice...
Personally, I wouldn't worry about .004 over the exposed length of the blade. But if you want to try to chase it out, shims between the trunnion and the table (or between the cabinet and the table on...
It's not trying to access the internet. The error message you see is a generic message displayed by the browser whenever it's unable to open an html page for whatever reason. The message is written...
In your SketchUp plugin directory (? "C:\Program Files\Google\SketchUp\Plugins\" ?) there should be a folder "cutlistui". That folder contains the html files used by the Cutlist user interface. If...
NEC Article 430 covers motor circuits, which, in my opinion, should never be mentioned in other than dedicated, hardwired, continuous use, industrial/commercial environments.
All I've ever bought has been calculated based on the nominal or rough cut dimension. 3/4" milled = 4/4 rough = 1" as far as board foot calculations are concerned.
Pat, what you've shown is perfectly acceptable in a thick skin structure that's subject to unidirectional loading well below ultimate. The internal members do little more than stabilize the skins and...
In my opinion, worth exactly what you paid for it, in a non-production environment, the price difference between 3 and 5 HP brings more value if it's put into premium quality saw blades. And that...
There are two contradictory requirements on every dust collector duct installation.
1) They have to have low flow resistance to move the greatest amount of air - use large pipes to do that.
2)...
+1 on the beauty of old pine. If the boards or thick enough, my approach would be to get rid of the weathering.
Add a double caution to the embedded metal problem. After very careful inspection...
Yes, it does. It, like most stacked dado blades puts small "bat ear" grooves in the corners, but it's not a "wobble" dado blade.
It works just like a stacked dado set with an inner and outer blade...
I have a Freud 508 set and encountered the same shim headaches you describe. I now have a Freud 608 and the 508 is gathering dust. I heartily recommend the 608 if your saw arbor is long enough for...
Half lap joints in the body of long workpieces, e.g. several along the length of an 10' 2x4? No question it can be done with other tools, but the quickest, easiest, safest, and most accurate way I've...
Interesting!
No intent to be contentious, but for my own edification, assuming I have a properly configured 240v/30amp circuit, can you give some examples of loads requiring less than 30 amps that...
The speed and momentum of the piece coming at you is in direct proportion to the speed of the blade that throws it at you. All tablesaws spin the blade at about the same speed. The motor only...
Click on the paint can icon to open the "Materials" dialog. In the upper right side, next to the right edge of the dialog, you should see an icon that looks like a small square with a diagonal line...
I've had some dealings with Ed, and came away extremely pleased with the experience. Looks to me like there could be a warrantee situation here. Don't know what the applicable terms, laws, factors,...
Gas with fluxcore????
Wired just like any other "branch" circuit except it's 240v instead of 120v and has NEMA 6 (or L6) receptacles instead of NEMA 5 (or L5)
Assuming it's a one man shop, the TS and BS won't be running at the same time. One 240v/20a branch circuit will handle both machines, individually, up to about 3HP per machine. If you think you'll be...
