Does anyone have experience with an edge sanding guide such as the Festool Positioning Aid (AH-ES-ETS/ETSC). I have not been able to find any other similar sander atttachment except for a 3D printed...
Another vote for Togglers.
I have been using a Shark Guard on my Minimax SC4 for around 10 years. It does cover the scoring blade which I think is absolutely necessary. I almost always use the scoring blade and the scoring...
I paid $261 for a new one back in 2012. I use it all the time on my Minimax SC4e.
I ordered some Accuride full extension slides (3832 and 3932 series) directly from Accuride recently and they were delivered in less than a week.
I recently installed 2800 sf of Flooret Modin spc rigid plank flooring. I used a Freud carbide blade for Trex decking for ripping on the table saw. I used an ordinary carbide blade on my cutoff saw....
I have a Fuji SC1 gun that I no longer use if you are interested. I only have the one nozzle that came with the gun when I bought it new and I need several larger size nozzles now. Since the nozzles...
Can anyone who has used the Fuji Q5 comment on the effectiveness of the speed control feature for fine tuning the gun. Since all of the Fuji systems have a measure of air pressure/flow control by...
After I started this thread I ended up purchasing a Surfprep sander. I had to move forward with the purchase since my recently repaired Festool ETS EC150/5 was again malfunctioning and I needed a...
This is a pair of nightstands that I just finished. The cherry has not had time to darken yet. The drawer fronts are pau ferro (morado). I was initially skeptical about the combination of cherry and...
Another ROS sander you might consider besides the Festool, Bosch, and Mirka previously mentioned is the electric AirVantage ROS (also comes as a pneumatic version). It comes as both a fully...
The red colored glue that the OP was talking about was Weldwood Resorcinol Glue. It was two part with one part a thick syrupy liquid and the other part a dry powder. It was favored by boat-builders...
Bill Lyman and Van Huskey, any input/comments on the Airvantage or Surfprep brushless random orbit sanders?
Just wondering if anyone has extensive run time with an Airvantage or Surfprep brushless random orbit sander and can comment on reliability compared to the other premium brushless sanders (Festool...
Dave, congratulations on your new SC4. You're going to wonder how you ever got along without it. Get the Incra positioner and make the Fritz and Franz jig and they will teach you how to use your...
I purchased an ETS EC 150/5 last year and was initially overwhelmed by the smooth, efficient operation of the sander. It is far superior to the PC and Makita sanders I've used in the past. It...
Sounds good. You are welcome to come have a look anytime.
I've got one and can highly recommend it. I'm not too far away from you in south central Idaho, about 2 hours north of Twin Falls. I purchased it through Sam.
My Northwood 20" planer is serial number 22305 and is marked Model Number LS-20A. Purchased new in 1987. NW-20 does appear to be the model number on your planer as previously stated. Also yours has a...
The original dust collection hood provided by MM didn't work very well. I replaced it with a Sharkguard and it works great for my MM SC4 Elite unless I'm cutting very narrow pieces. Don't think...
I was faced with exactly the same dilemma several years ago. I ended up choosing the Minimax SC4 Elite based on price and the better customer service I received from Minimax. It was a real pleasure...
I was faced with the same dilemma years ago because of the high cost of the Tormek. I could never get satisfactory results free-hand or with the various jigs I wasted money on for honing. My...
I have a 20" Northwood LS20A planer that I bought new about 30 years ago. It's been a great planer and the table casting is beautiful which is more than I can say for the table casting on my Parks...
Liquidambar is actually the genus that sweetgum belongs to (Liquidambar styraciflua). It is also referred to as "redgum" sometimes because of the reddish brown heart wood in larger trees. The small...
