Bill,

Thanks so much for the write up! Very well done and in depth!

I feel like the Cutech may be the sweet spot for me now. It gets me The 8” width and also has the small foot print for my...

Apparently the quality of the edge joint/cut is not the greatest and they were attributing that to the fact that the spiral cutter isn’t a “true” helical cutter and does not have enough cutting...

Thanks for the info, Bill!

Not at all! I’m more of a minimalist. Small and steady...

Another criticism I’ve heard of the cutech is that it does excellent face jointing but not so great edge jointing. Can you speak on that....

After everyone suggestions in the thread, I am now torn between the highest end Cutech or the G0814 + spiral head (additional). It is about a $500 difference after shipping ($519 vs $1,077). The...

Thanks for searching that, and I have been keeping a closer eye on postings spanning through NJ and CT now.

Call me crazy but in either instance of what you posted...a new bandsaw or jointer can...

Thanks, Michelle! Is yours the Teflon bed? Any issues with it? Also, would it be possible to joint a 2x6x84 on it or is it not long enough with the extensions?

Hey everyone, thank you so much for the feedback! I appreciate everyone’s honesty and sharing your experiences! Im going to try respond to everyone’s main posts, so here we go!

I live in Orange...

Thanks, Mike. The problem with used for me is there aren’t many in my area. My options are either destroyed rusted out hunks of steel or higher end equipment for a higher price. For example, a 1HP...

About 2 years ago, I decided to dive deep into DIY/Woodworking. By no means am I attempting to become a full time woodworker, it's more-so a hobby that I have found to thoroughly enjoy. The concept...

Ding, Ding, Ding - we have a winner! Thank you!! That was my missing piece. I was going from the outside of the rim joist, 16" until the starting edge of the next joist! Doh!! Something so simple......

I'm smacking myself on this one....

A while ago I built some shelving and got it fitted with plywood, ensuring that the plywood was flush at the front and ended halfway on the joist before...

Steve,

I'm not sure what you mean by this...?



Yes, the Extensions are as flat as they can be to the cast Iron table. While I did use a 48" level to check, it was a Box level, which is...

I purchased the Delta 36-725 to replace my Ridgid 4512 that I returned. Unfortunately, that saw has a really poor fence/alignment procedure and no matter what I did, I could not get consistent...

I verified that the rails were installed correctly, parallel and level. I fought with the fence (both old and replacement) for over 3 hours the other day and got no where. The new fence was...

Thanks, Scott. Yeah, I have read that in the past and am doing that before locking.

Alright, so the new fence is here! Out of the box, the fence, once again, would not fit on the table rails. The...

Hi everyone, just wanted to give an update...

It turns out that two of the four fence adjustment screws on my fence are stripped so it wouldn't fully tighten down after I adjusted the fence. I...

All,

Thank you for the information!

@Chad Bender -
Your post is really helpful, because I didn't realize that out of the four allen head bolts in the fence, each set does a different thing! I...

Let me preface this with I'm a complete beginner to woodworking....

I picked up a Ridgid 4512 saw a couple of weeks ago and just got around to assembling it this weekend, it's quite the upgrade...
