New to the forum and have been working on setting up my shop and dust collection. I had been following Marty Walsh's progress but I see he has stopped posting. He got me very motivated on my shop and I'd like to post a few pictures. Seems I can't post pics. Can anybody help?

Regards Doug

Welcome Doug. Glad your trying to do some pictures.

There is a tutorial on posting pix at the top of the page in the support forum.

Welcome, Doug!! If you don't have software already that does picture resizing to hit the limit we have here, let me know. I found a really easy one called Irfan view that is free, and works great. Jim.

Yea I tried to do it but it won't let me upload the pictures. Your saying that I have to resize them?

Yes, you need to resize them. Download a program called Pixresizer.

Would any one be willing to post the pics for me? I don't know how to resize them.

Tweeeeet! No fair posting pics like that when we can have a mouth full of coffee. When your jaw drops you dribble all over the keyboard.

Nice equipment. You're obviously a professional, or just like to have the absolute best in equipment.

For those who don't know it, Martin is the Mercedes Benz of woodworking equipment, and the Mercedes S-class at that.

Well I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one with an HMI (Human Machin Interface) screen in my shop. Mine just controls my dust collection and heating/cooling. Not my tablesaw!

Very nice shop and a great choice in machines.
Is that a T60 Classic?
Do you have 3 phase from the pole or a digital phase converter; as I understand it, the new Martin saws don't like RPC's.

Cheers,
Phil

Yes Phil that is the T 60 Classic and I am running three phase. It was a big deal to get the three phase. I have two buildings on the property and had to tie into the three phase panel from my office. But all my machines are three phase.

Unbelieveable.

You realize, of course, that if the first project you post is a pine coat rack a number of use will come over to your shop and "relocate" your tools to places where they would be better used (our shops):)

Really nice set up.

Good one Rennie, I don't think it will be a coat rack. LOL. It's been a job in itself just setting everything up. I'm finishing up the dust collection and moving on to air lines.

I'm curious about your shop building - was it purpose-built for your shop? It seems very long and very high, but rather narrow - how does it work for work flow? I'm assuming from the equipment that you are a professional -- what sort of work do you do? (either that or someone with a serious jones for high-end european machines . . . :p )

No it was not purpose built. But I did add on to it. It's about 23x80.

I did have a hell of a time trying to make everything flow. I did a paper doll layout and still ended up moving some equipment around. The ceiling is about 12 feet in most areas which was great for the DC.

As far as the type of work I do mostly cabinets, euro and face frame. Plus some millwork.

Woah... what a shop. I think that the assistant would cause distractions though... lol.

Very nice layout. Machines are handled nicely, how about finishing? Do you sub out or do it yourself. Pics there?

Awesome so far.

thanks lou

The Martin slider is the T60 Classic with the 3.3 meter slide. It's considered their compact class. No concrete in the base, some aluminum extensions. Very good solid saw. Still trying to figure out the touch screen.

I do mostly kitchen cabinet, vanity etc. The process as follows:

Slider for panel processing
Brandt edge bander for edge banding
Ritter line boring(not shown)
Castle machine for pocket boring to assemble boxes
jointer, planer for processing solid wood
Northfield saw for hardwood ripping
Butfering wide belt for sanding panel (doors)
Martin T20 shaper (on order) for stick, cope, raised panel

thanks doug for the info.

the t60 looks pretty nice.. does it have the "tilt both ways feature " ? Prior to this saw, what types of sliders had you been running?

best wishes and great shop.

No this is my first slider. Only tilts one way, I think it's the T60 precision that tilts both ways.

Hi Doug, nice gear, nice shop!

How many people work in it?
Is it located in a industrial park or acerage type setting?

Good luck with your (ad)venture. ;)

It's just going to be me and my helper.;) It's on a one acre lot along with my concrete finishing business.
