Incredibly pleased with my G1023RL.
Another satisfied Ridgid sander owner here. As others have said, I end up using it a lot more than I thought I would. Really handy little unit, really quick and easy to set up or change from...
Michael - I made my top out of 2 layers of 3/4 MDF. The table will be supported very well underneath, so I'm not too terribly worried about it sagging.
I was wondering how much of an issue this...
As I mentioned in a previous thread, I am currently building a router table. The top is made out of MDF and the plate sits right on "untreated" MDF. I'm a little concerned that over time the...
Thanks for the tip, Jack. This has some interesting ideas. But, considering that my router table is almost done I wouldn't be able to implement any of this guy's ideas. I did make some...
Well, the only picture of it that really exists is in the measured drawing. Like I said, it looks like a pretty specialized piece. It's a bit like what Ken linked, but it's a little flatter and...
Hey all - I'm currently working on building The Deluxe Router Station from Norm/New Yankee Workshop. All is going quite well - and having a ton of fun - but I'm missing the dust hood that goes on...
I guess the guides will just take some practice. They are each mounted on an off-center post and adjusted by turning, but seem to move quite a bit when the cap screw is tightened. Doesn't seem like...
Just picked up my first band saw, a Grizzly G055LX.
Since this is my first band saw, I don't really have much to compare it to, but it seems to be a pretty well-built little machine. I do have...
Another vote for the Incra Plate. I absolutely love the Magnalock inserts.
That PC press has been talked about here a few times recently, and the consensus seems more positive than negative. It sounds to me for the price it's a pretty good deal for a hobbyist machine. I...
Kevin - really? I have what is probably the same compressor as you, and I have no problem using my framing nailer with it.
I would think that this is a pretty good deal. I have a Harbor Freight compressor of this same size that I paid this same price for. It's served me very well, but I would think that Husky is a much...
Interesting. Thanks for sharing. If this actually gets released I'm tempted, especially at $445.
One other small difference I noticed was the blade speeds: the 555 is 1500/3200. This new 555LX...
Hm. Interested in possibly ordering one of these, but they aren't available on the website like the flyer says (yet). Where did you find out about this flyer?
I got myself a copy of the plans for Norm Abram's router table, and I plan to start building my new table here in the next couple of weeks. I'm sure some of you have built this router table before,...
I have the same fence with the same bubble cursor, and it's horrible. I just snagged the Bies cursor that was linked on that thread. Thanks for the link!
Really? That's odd, the website says that it's adjustable. But then I guess most things are adjustable if you have a hacksaw. :-)
Great idea, Cary. Thanks again for your input (in this thread and others regarding this saw). It's been incredibly valuable.
Thanks, Gregory. Yeah, the jointer is a G0604X - had it for a couple years now. Pretty nice machine, even though it's only a 6". :-)
Thanks for the input, guys. I've tinkered with that wing a bit already, but I guess I'll give it another shot this weekend.
Cary, you were one of the the ones that gave me the idea of moving the...
After it being on back-order for quite some time, my Grizzly G1023RL finally arrived a couple of weeks ago. I can't say enough good things about this machine, just that everything I've read here...
I've had a G1023RL on backorder for a few months. I emailed them the code with my order number and they were able to apply it to my order. Saved me $112.50. Should finally have my new saw in a...
Anyone have one of these? I saw an infomercial for one about a month back, and now it looks like HF is offering one as well.

The HF model is...
I ordered just the 1023RL, but when they told me it was out of stock, I asked about all of the other 1023-based machines, and they didn't have any of them. 1023RLW, 1023RLWX, 1023RLW.
