    Txs, makes sense!



    The link I posted is to a soft start solution that is in theory good for up to 6ton units, and can reduce the rush draw as much as 1/5 of the LRA. But I am contacting both...

    Thanks Bill... the HVAC tech initially considered it, but said the "hard start" would not help, because the issue is that the generator was not able to produce enough power on start. And we tried...

    Thanks, Brian. My generator seems to be able to handle voltage fairly well under normal load (we measured the output with all the normal stuff minus the AC, and it was providing a very stable...
  4. Soft Starter for 5 ton AC Central Unit?

    I have a Generac 20Kw whole house generator. It has run very well since installed (18 months ago), including stretches of several days after power went off and with A/C running. But last week, the...

    Thank you, Ron!



    Thanks, David!



    Thanks, Jim! And you are correct, it's very adaptable. With all the work from home situation, I am planning on building a desk for my 'home office'...

    Thanks, William.

    The video from LN (for purchase) is here: https://www.lie-nielsen.com/products/shaker-side-table

    The table is built precisely to the dimensions in that video. The top is 18"...
  7. Shaker End Table, first "finished piece"

    Finally finished this. Hard maple all around, based on the LN video on how to build it.

    I have mostly done shop projects, and this is the very first piece I made that I consider good for actual...

    Now it is fine

    I wish I could tell you what made the difference, but I am really not sure. I checked alignments again, made sure the splitter was properly positioned and that the blade was properly sized for it. ...

    Uploaded a short video

    I tried without the RF or splitter, on 4/4 hard maple. It was much better than before, but still felt some vibration at the beginning. I have a video link here. https://youtu.be/aoaOD0aZRKQ

    Thanks guys. I will look further into the RK alignment. I checked earlier and I know it's thinner than the WW-II blade I am using, but perhaps it's not properly aligned as indeed that's where I...

    Sorry, I was a typo, and worse, I misspoke. Yes, it's a featherboard and it's positioned "behind" (as in, closer to me, before the board engages the blade).

    My bad!

    Long time since visiting, trying to get back in the saddle!

    I have somewhat an open question, but looking for suggestions/ideas that may help me, if you don't mind.

    I am a bit at a loss and...

    Forgive my snail pace... this is my second set of dovetails; this time for the tills of the tool chest. Blue tape still invaluable for this (particularly with the walnut fronts), but I don't need a...

    Have a two speed grinder, got a CBN 180 grit wheel. The other wheel is a traditional...

    Thanks, gentlemen!

    Fll disclosure: That's the glamour shot, showing the best side. There are some small gaps on the other side. Enough to notice from a short distance, but not too big. The...
  25. First real dovetails

    After the last dovetail for practice, here's my first ever dovetailed box, and a big one it is. It's for my tool chest, 24"x36"x21". Not bad for the first attempt. Some gaps here and there, but...
