Thanks Fritz, if you don't mind me calling you that, for your opinion but I think I am leaning towards a Rikon 10-326 that I didn't know about earlier. Seems to do the right things well. Bigger...

Hmmm, I looked up that vendor because I never heard the name and I couldn't find band saw blades. If you have a link I would appreciate it.

Thanks a lot of the detailed and concise opinion

Considering a band saw for the usual reasons. So many models are out of stock and this Jet seems like a relatively new one with decent specs for my needs and price point.

So my question is what...

Update- After letting the above mentioned small chunk of oak get air on both sides over the second night most of the distortion was gone but still not flat enough for CNC. I set the part up convex...

I am familiar, far from an expert, in what you describe but to see that much curl over night just flabbergasted me. Means I am pretty much shut down for the winter for any CNC work. All my my wood is...

Pretty close to equal amounts in pretty shallow cuts. First 5-8 passes of light cuts I had it hot glued to a sled till flat then removed from sled and passed through another 6-8 times on a MDF...

About 24 hours now. Drier indoors of course

White oak stair tread glued up commercially I have had for over a decade stored in unheated with marginal humidity controlled shelter. Air was available to all sides of the board(s)

yesterday I...

The service is a bit untraditional. Technically a condo with meter/mains on front of house on neighbors side. Transformer 200 feet away with underground cable feeding both meters above grade. My line...

Thanks for your real world experience. The others have suitable "askeered" me away from underground penetration but I am so glad I asked and for the advice here

Technically hydrophobia, fear of water...lol

Thanks all for your input and advice. Sounding a bit more complex and an error could have me mopping up water.

Plan B might be a strategically placed bush or just go the longer way.

Shortest path for new conduit is through the wall in front of the house to get to a distribution panel in the garage. Is there a way, per code, to come through the poured concrete underground then...

Power feed hasn't been run yet, I have some options

Ah, that makes more sense. Thought I had really rich neighbors..lol

Appreciate the experience with mini-splits and advice

Happy to hear such overwhelming endorsement of the mini's but any way you cut 6 units is a lot of house. I am happy for him but I don't I have 6 rooms.

BTW we have discussed a few things over the...

WOW, 6 mini's! Must be a large home.

Lot of folks advocating mini's

I live near CT, RI, MA border below the snow line but 0 F happens as does 100 on occasion

My shop is detached and probably only around 1000 sf when built. What type of fuel and device do you use? My weather is probably very similar to yours, maybe a few degrees warmer on average.

BTW I...

Interesting option

Planning stages for 24x36 shop/garage. My goal is to keep the area above freezing when not in use and getting it warm enough for finishing in winter (say 50-60) here in southern New England. If I go...

Thank you Phil

No bandsaw available. So far it's either hand saw (vs a bandsaw) or redesign the joint. I should have made it clear the posts were my question and it's a 3" deep cut as currently designed

Any particular type or brand?
