Has anyone upgraded their sawstop ICS to the new dust collection system ? If so, what has your experience been ? Has it made a big difference ? With an approximately $500 pricetag including the...
Another two big thumbs up for the Dylos air quality monitor. It helped me make intelligent decisions on which strategy worked best for each particular machine. I use it everytime when I go into the...
Thanks guys !! Great advice !!

I read a post by John Lucas ( I believe ) about turning wet wood to final dimension at one sitting rather than rough turn, dry, then finish turn. I have a few questions about the procedure. I would...
Has anyone used a vacuum chuck on the delta 46-460. If so, any recommendations on brands and do they work well on this lathe ? Thanks so much for the advice.

I am new to turning and especially bowl turning. Should I be using an s-shaped toolrest for hollowing out bowls, and if so, which toolrest would you recommend ? Thanks in advance for the advice !

I am currently going through the same research process. I believe I have decided to go with Racedeck flooring instead of dricore. The reason I chose racedeck is because I believe it will hold up...
Thanks everyone for the great advice !

I am considering laying down a Dricore floor over my workshop's concrete floor. It seems like it would be easier to walk on, warmer and just look nicer than the bare concrete I currently have. Has...
I have a kapex which is attached to my ridgid shop vac with its upgraded hose. I was skeptical about changing the hose, but I can say that it is definitely worth it. The dust collection with the...
I just have the basic wolverine jig and am trying to decide between varigrind 1 & 2.

I have the wolverine jig and would like to learn how to properly sharpen spindle gouges. I understand that the profile they come with should be changed to a fingernail profile ( hope that's the...
Thank you everyone for responding to my recent request. Here is my situation. I am a hobbyist using a 2 car garage for my workshop. I have a Delta 50-760 with a Wynn cannister filter and a garbage...
Thank you so much for all the great advice ! I will have to check with my electrician to see if another 220v line is possible. I may be maxed out on the panel. If not, sounds like that is the way to...
I currently have a delta 50-760 and am trying to decide if an upgrade to a cyclone would make a difference. I only have one 220volt line and so am limited to a dust collector that would work on 120v...
I am new to turning and am trying to decide between these two respirators. Any advice would be deeply appreciated. Also, does the visor on the adflo tilt up like the airstream's ? Thanks in advance...
