    I am building a Morris chair based on a design from Paolini which looks similar and used (4) 1/4 inch boards from mahogany and it worked well. Didn't have much springbuck but used urea glue in a...

    I have this sander and also can recommend it. For the price it is a good deal and I have found many uses for it. The table adjustment is not great, but I loosen one side adjust it up then adjust up...

    One thing to consider would be the weight of a large slider and how you could get it in a basement shop. Large sliders are typically close to or over 1000lbs. I had a combo machine with an 8.5 ft...

    John,

    In my experience Saw stop and MM sliders are both well built for hobby use. You can find minor details to point to in each machine to find flaws, but both are good build quality. I would not...

    I was doing the same search recently but with 20" planers. I narrowed it down to the Jet 208HH and PM209HH. I went with the Jet because it was made in Taiwan vs. China on the Grizzly 20" models and...

    Van,

    Fair point. I did not mean to make a general statement that all Jet and PM are made in taiwan. The experience that I have with my items has been good but they are made in Taiwan. I do think...

    I have also had great experience with Powermatic and Jet tools. I find the PJ882HH jointer to be an upgrade over my previous European jointer/planer and the Jet 208HH to be an excellent planer. I...

    I have the PM 701 and it has been great. The fence system and hold downs are very good for a bench top machine. I was considering a floor standing model, but just completed over 20 mortises with...

  17. PM 209 owners need help with electrical circuit

    I am leaning towards buying a Powermatic 209HH Planer. Looking at the manual on-line PM recommends a 60 amp circuit. I have run 5 HP 1 phase motors w/o an issue on 30 amp circuits. Is the manual...

    Steve,

    Thanks. I was wondering if the J/P would hold up over time and this could be an option if I run tight on space. I am definitely leaning towards a saw/shaper, but not a full combo machine....

    I said I did not want to fix up old equipment. I would be open to fully restored old equipment, but do not have the desire or skill to rebuild old equipment.
