Thanks for the recommendation - I'll order one today!
Thanks, it is actually maple from my stock. I don't know whether it is soft or hard maple though...
sorry... here is the pic. Female is 0.2” deep.

I need some help getting better quality on my inlays. I’m finding that fragile parts like the tips of my stars are breaking, leaving a void in my inlay. 😞.
I’m using an Amana RC-1108 bit at...
It turns out this was exactly the issue. I had a tool repair person come to the shop to do some testing with me and we found out that voltage drop was significant... down to 95v at startup. The...
The sander is 15hp, or 50 amps 3 phase. Bypassing the electronic controls, it starts up well. I found this out when a contractor welded shut.
I'm thinking even a soft start module might do the...
Hi folks!
i have a Grizzly G0539 belt sander and I’m right at the max of my power available. Everything runs fine, but the machine shudders at startup and sometimes reboots my PhasePerfect.

I have a new-to-me Laguna SmartShop 2 which is equipped with pneumatic locating pins. Since the tops of the pins are threaded, I’m thinking this may be a good way to mount fixturing for different...
thanks guys. Based on this, I may stick to wood.
I’m looking for recommendations on what type of plastic wood to use for outdoor furniture. I know Azek and PVC sheets are both available, but expensive.
What materials are folks using for...
I've identified some capabilities I want to add to my shop, and am struggling with what equipment will best serve my priorities. I could use some words of wisdom from those that have come before me....
Thanks to all that contributed. I was able to speak with Grizzly, and tightened some electrical connections. The spikes are still high (2-3x running amps), but tightening the connections seems to...
Thanks for the tip! I’ll try the air pressure.
Glad to hear your thoughts because that’s exactly what I have. The whole shop is on a 100 amp feed from the house, so that may explain the lights dimming on startup.
Once started, the compressor...
Thanks guys. The starts were a bit unnerving flickering the lights. I’m running through a PhasePerfect on a 100 amp circuit so maybe that is contributing?
The PhasePerfect folks sizes it based...
I just took delivery of a Grizzly G0539 37” belt sander and just getting it set up. Super excited to get it dialed in... it’s an impressive piece of equipment!
The manual says full load is...
Patrick,
Much appreciated. Yes, the budget is just north of $20k, and within $250 between Felder & Minimax. My workshop is 30'x40' dedicated to woodworking, which seems generous until you start...
Located in Maine. What are you thinking?
I’m planning a workshop makeover, starting with my saw, jointer and planer. I currently have a 3hp Jet cabinet saw with a Jessem slider, 6” Jet jointer and 15” Delta planer.
For the saw, I’m torn...
