They cost more than the saw I have. Looking for a CHEAP alternative. Peter Millard’s method might work for me. Thanks for the suggestion.

I have the same saw and use it strictly as an on-site saw on job sites. I like it for that because of its portability on the wheeled stand. I set it...

I would look into the insta rail square or the offerings by TSO products.

One comment that may help with that. I use several live centers but one of my favorites is the Nova. It accommodates a short #2 Morse Taper to hold...

I have a Rigid job site saw and s contractor saw. I upgraded the fence on the contractor saw and it does all I need. However due to size of my shop...

Hey Peter. Can you get a quote on what the shipping for the monitor would be? I'm definitely interested. I've ordered a camera

Congratulations mike that’s excellent. I used to sell on Etsy I like it because I didn’t have to meet the customer. When I sell local people...

I started out with the need to handle large panels. I planned on running the RO 150 up to 180 grit and switching to an ETS 125 for 220 and up. The...

There are many Youtubes on this sharpening system. This system is primarily for sharpening knives, not cutting tools. Recently i made a set of...

This is way I asked.....I have never used any of the Festool sanders. Considering their price point, it's not a decision I want to regret. I only...

Jim: I will be as kind as I can here: stick to woodworking, before you start a geopolitical kerfuffle. Those F-16 fighter jets Taiwan sent to...

Jim: can you expand on what your surfaces are? I have two 2x4 centipedes currently: I was thinking I could fab up a 4x6 or 4x7 MDF top for them....

Jim , I just reread that whole China - Tiawon thing. And reccomend it. I think "technically ,Taiwon is part of China is way too strong. Pretty sure...

Neat little project Sir!

I love seeing your work and I'm glad to hear this good news! You should ask the guy who bought it what other stuff he suggests that might sell - to...

I agree with Jim. I have the Rotex 150 and the ETS 125. In my view, the rotex is a specialty tool which has it’s place and excels in hogging out...

Another Hammer .. This one is a K3

Thank you for the really thorough explanation. I know what you're saying about the CFM stats, they're misleading at best. Your CFM numbers are pretty...

Tim, Thanks for the info on your parts resource. Sorry, no pix. The parts are painted and shelved, awaiting a base build. When the base is on...

"Which saw" matters. If you go higher end, you'll get a little better performance. Aside from noise and power, the fences at the lower end are...

I use my Centipedes with some portable surfaces that are sorta-torsion-boxes-but-not-built-as-well-as-they-could-be. :) A nice surface on them would...

Thomas I agree; it's just that I finally got frustrated with truing my blades on my diamond stones, and the time it took. I'd rather use them for...

Why do you want the Rotex? Do you have heavy stock removal requirements that will justify the slightly more awkward balance that the Rotex sanders...

I should have added: I would be using a centipede or a couple of Kreg worktables as the base. The centipede top is one that I brought up before....

"Technically", Taiwan is part of China...that said, I agree with the statement early on in this thread that regardless of where something is actually...

Good for you Mike. It's well deserved, and you got a couple of great kids there. Next thing you know you'll be selling franchises. Way to go.

Congratulations on finding a paying outlet for your desire to build. If you are real ambitious you might ask if they would like a reproduction of the...
