Thanks for the followup Van.. Im using a Timberwolf 3/4" 3 tooth. I have resharpened it once so its not as new. I have installed urethane tires from Peachtree. Not sure how they compare to others but...

Thanks guys.. Got everything up and running now. I went ahead and moved the belt up to the next setting. I didnt see any added benefit in moving it up really. I was hoping the feed rate may go up but...

Thanks for that info Van. Was not aware of that. I got everything hooked up and have the saw simply hardwired to my circuit interrupt box for the time being. I plan on returning the current switch...

To me $$ is a big factor. I can tell you I INSTANTLY shy away from gouge pricing no pun intended. I get the r&d behind some of this stuff but all this cutting edge mumbo jumbo for what I do is crazy....

This +1 .. I use a small closet in the basement with this exact setup. I find it works phenomenally well... I keep it around 38-43 RH ..sometimes ill bump it up to 50% . My only gripe is hearing the...

Hey Rod,

thanks for the followup.. I saw after posting that it was rated at 2hp. What is the issue with using one designed for less power? Does these get overheated ?

secondly the only thing i...

Looks great.. I would go ahead an measure the blade length some how to scout for replacements. Hopefully this is a generic size you can source locally. Cant beat the price for sure.

Thanks for the great feedback guys,

The motor is rated at 12.26 amps 14.2 sf amps 230 volts The motor does not list tefc but it has a circuit reset unit mount on it..basically a little red...

Thanks Salem..thats exactly what i needed. I dont get why things cant be explained in simple terms. Ive got it wired up for ccw per the instructions

Now...as far as switches. I purchased a 30 amp...

Greetings Creekers,

I purchased a new 3 hp motor for my Harbor Freight bandsaw yesterday. I wanted to go with the 2hp however the shaft is a 1/4" larger for some reason :confused: I realize this...

I think it would have some benefits if you new how to play...completely necessary not really. I think there are aspects to a particular instrument that only the musician can really understand..from...

cherry can have white seepage..this is no where close to a pine tree :) .. id say im with the cherry crowd...about 90% sure..I think you can work around the cracks..they dont appear to be real pith...

While its purely personal I dont think burning plywood on a small scale will be tragic. Keep in mind there are adhesives involved so make sure you aren't down wind and if you have neighbors perhaps...

Im thinking of this : http://www.harborfreight.com/double-garage-door-screen-68310.html .. not sure if this can be tweaked into an L shape or cut to fit in a room

or this...

Richard indeed a new vortex however these saws seem to run and run so once you find one that works they should outlast many of us. I will say that a bigger saw does bring on more weight as well as...

Hey Richard cant really add much to what already has been said. I too own a 455 Rancher and have to say the best thing I did was upgrade to a bigger saw. I found a used 372xp and havnt looked back....

Cool Charlie...I see your in VA as well.. try posting some pics of dontknowtree and ill try and help identify it..cool score

Yes Steve, The NOVA sharpening center is correct.

I got it on Amazon for $93 Josh, thanks for the links. I too thought it looked like a great concept and price tiboot. Coming from a cheesy home...

Greetings,

Dont see a ton of talk about this product. I have to say I have a few concerns and less than impressed overall. Ill preface by saying I attempted to contact Teknatool CS 6 different...

This has been my experience quite a bit..off center pith...Ive got a crap ton of it..so if you have a future need shoot me a pm

Hey Doug.. I live on a farm with about 30% coverage in Eastern Red Cedar. I can say judging by your pics this is def. Eastern Red Cedar...especially with the smell you noted which will fill the shop...

I agree..I started out with these and they have performed well and helped me learn a ton. I will say they do not have a bowl gouge in the set so you will need to purchase one of these separate.

Bill not sure what info. your going on but this is not true. There is no factual based data on what exactly causes a burl. Most associate with branch damage and or bug infestation. Also possible...

I def. know the difference quality can make..I actually have a 1/2" Glaser gouge on my shortlist... However dropping $700+ on non-essentials at this point in my life is not practical. If I sold some...

and considering the "mini" set is $700 .. wonder what this is going to bring to the table.. a wait may be what we all need to save up the $$$ :)
