I realize this may be an old topic, but I am having no luck finding specific recommendations for a camera for a DIY Trent Bosch Type Visualizer. I plan on hooking it up directly to a monitor, and...

Hello, I'm interested in getting into hollowing and have been looking at various stabilizer systems. I'm probably not going to try very large pieces... maybe 12-14 inches length maximum. After...

I have both the ACKS abrasive paste and polish, purchased for lathe turnings, but I'm wondering if anyone has used these on a table top? I have a small walnut top that I'd like to add to "shine"...

. At: KMParts.com. I spoke with Tony Wolff

I had this same problem on my MM16, and ordered the switch replacement parts from the company and person cited below. They were very helpful with installation instructions as well...note it's a 3...

Hello, I'm installing this vise on a Roubo bench... the issue I'm having is that the wagon runs smoothly in the slot, until I fully tighten the "collar" on the outside...at that point it hangs up...

Wondering what type of .5mm "lead" others are using with their Incra products...I love the accuracy of the precisely cut holes, but can't find a brand/hardness of lead that doesn't break way too...

Hello I've tried various ways to mount a light on my Powermatic 3520b, but have yet to find one in which the light is not blocked by the back of my head when I turn the interior of a bowl. I have...

Apologies for not posting a picture... I have tried to align this so many different ways I wasn't sure which picture to take, or if it would help. So, I'll keep at this, but so far it appears that...

Hello...not sure if this post belongs here, or on the finishing section. I'm looking for a glossy finish for a salad bowl I turned. The salad bowl will actually be used (you know, for salads!)...so...

Is the idea that you tighten the bolts when the clamp is halfway on the tailstock/swing-away, and then you can slide the tail-stock completely onto the swing-away? You should be able to slide the...

Thanks for the clarification....on mine, there are 2 large bolts, and 2 much smaller "set" screws. are the bolts what you are referring to as jack screws? I am unable to get the extension ways in...

Hello, I think this has been discussed a bit before...I'm having a lot of difficulty (and frustration!) installing the swing-away bed extension. Very difficult to get it lined up precisely with the...

Good discussion...I had missed that mod for the fence lever..Thanks Derek! My "solution" was to mill up some wood to a thickness of 19.5mm (10mm center height of bit + half the thickness of a 3/4...

To clarify, I understand that mortises don't need to be exactly centered, and agree with all of the above comments. Given the precision that the Domino has built into it, I just find it surprising...

The Domino is a great tool, but would be even better if there was a fine adjust for setting the fence height. The vertical scale is very crude, and even with the tool separated, is difficult to set...

Thanks for all the replies! To clarify, this is the full-size tool with the bend on the end. I have been keeping the flat part of the tool on the tool rest, and also trying to minimize the length...

I've been using this tool (#6305, Full Size #3 Carbide Insert) to hollow in the transition area of bowls....and not in particularly difficult areas...but I'm getting rather violent catches, and I...

First, thanks for all of the responses from folks who have this machine. Very helpful. I've spent more time with my 16-32 and finally have it working well (at least for today!)...and I thought I...

I'm surprised. In addition to the pesky clip on the inboard side, which I can manage (though with some difficulty) the other issue I have is getting the paper rolled on tightly. I suspect there...

Glenn, Thanks for the thorough review, and I do like your cabinet! Just to clarify, it sounds like you may have had an older Performax/Jet drum sander in the past....and you believe the new Supermax...

I posted a few days ago asking for opinions on the Woodmaster 26 inch drum sander...and folks seem to really like it. Before pulling the trigger, I'd like to know if any of the potential...

Hello, I have a Jet 16-32 drum sander, and I've learned to hate it.... very difficult to work the clip on the motor side of the roll... very difficult (almost impossible) to get the arm to stay...

Thanks to all! I suspect it's a combination of my pressing down too hard...and as pointed out above-- the cutterhead using carbide cutters. And appreciate all the information on the various options...

Hello, I have the SCM FS41e jointer/planer, and it's a great machine. However, I have noticed that there is a lot more friction when pushing wood on the jointer bed than I expected ... even with 6...
