... for climb cutting on a 3 HP shaper? I tried searching the site but didn't see this addressed... might have missed it!
I want to run 3/4" x 4" ash through T&G flooring cutters to make about 1,500 sq feet of flooring. I'd think the cuts are relatively light. I plan on a slow feed rate and I'm thinking a 1/4 HP power feeder is enough for this. Based on your experience, do I need more weight and power for a task like this? That size power feeder is all I'd ever need for the type of hobby work I hope to do in the future... especially considering that I seldom do any "production" type work. It's far more likely to be a one off project with hand cut joinery.
