Mine starts in about 3 seconds. Stopping may be 5-7. But you can set it to anything you want. I think I have 5 or 8 seconds on my jointer and a 25...

You want 3 wire control, that diagram doesn't appear to show that.

The vfd is rated based on 3ph input. They all work (well most anyway) on single phase input. You just get half the output. It's a 5hp output on...

Is it a 10hp 3ph vfd? You need to double the size of a 3ph vfd run on single phase. As an example the fugi 60amp vfd (20hp) only outputs 27a on...

If it's cheap and easy to move in, what is the downside, assuming it's in good condition.

Just curious here but if I read your description you are not using a crosscut sled for plywood panels? All crosscuts are the tso & track?

Might be the bearing, might be the spindle, might be a combination.

Martin USA is the distributor here. I would think their standards are reasonable high to be involved. Granted that occurred more recently than the...

Those bearings run tight. I have one I had to open up to fit one of my shapers. Also your spindle is too short for that setup. 5"-5.25" is pretty...

This worked for my pm180

Your cylinder bore is too small for effective clamping. A 1.0625 bore is only .89 sq inches. Assuming you are running 100 psi that's only 89 pounds...

1.5" is the minimum bore I'd be comfortable with, ideally it would be 2" with a 5/8 rod.

What bore and shaft size are those? That mount needs to be heavier to keep it from deflecting.

100% this. Some off the shelf Freeborn edge heads.

If the ends are not exposed I've cut the back corners off to make the diagonals less that the ceiling height (hidden by a wall or base units)

My 16" newman is a slightly newer design having ball bearings and a 3 knife head. I have no need for a second machine. Skew the fence and slow the...

Leave it 4.5 and add a apron. This is 42x120 at 1.375" thick sapele .

The issue is currents generated in the motor shaft by the vfd that grounds through the bearings. It's a known issue with vfds and the reason for ad...

Only 6 different lengths, for face frames and doors/drawer fronts? I assume you mean for one cabinet not a full kitchen.

I was under the impression (can't remember where I heard it) they were running flat out currently at max capacity/shifts and opening a new...

They are nose mount cylinders. Though there are other configurations.

I like pneumatic cylinders personally. They are cheap, easy to configure, effective as clamps and versatile.

Are all the same radius? and all rebates on the outside of the curve?

It's the toilet paper thing all over again. Shops are buying up everything they can trying to keep some level of supply. The manufacturing didn't...
