Patrick,
Getting back to your question. I have the hammer n4400, as well as a few Grizzly tools including the 12" 634XP JP. There is no real difference in fit or finish between these tools. The...

So which model would you recommend for a dewalt 735?

Or, he could be building a type of table where this is required. Like a dutch pullout table. My dutch pullout table top is floating.
It is bread boarded to keep it flat.

The original poster was asking if there was a larger version coming out. That I don't know, but one would imagine some mighty long tables.
I have one (go634xp) and it works well. I use it just as a...

It is normally $1200, but you can get it for 10% on sales at woodcraft. Plus now you have to worry about shipping/moving it.
~ start at $500, and go to $550 max.

I have this base on my 634xp. Works great.
It has two fixed casters and two swivels.
I don't move it far. Out from the wall a bit to access longer boards. I just go forward, backward, like so. So...

Is it easy to say use this wood or that wood. The best thing is to look at actual examples. There is also the style of the cabinets. This is as important as the wood species.
Try to look at...

Here's my cherry kitchen, with bubinga panels.

It really should be measured upon functionality and not weight in pounds. Too much is made of pure weight.
Those old battleships were sure heavy! Not sure they would be of much use in a modern...

There was just an article in fine woodworking rating these machines. The ridgid came out on top. I have neither, so I can't contribute much.

I have a 13yo delta lunchbox planer 506 (but there was a lower lunchbox model 504. Kind of like your 734/735. At the time, it had better dust collection capability.
It actually results in a great...

Sounds like you know how to care for a machine. It's not where you get it, but knowing how to treat it well that will make it last. Unlike a lawn mower, a snowblower is kind of an emergency machine....

I just replaced my snow blower with an ariens 2 stage 24" for $800. My previous SB was 20 years old cheap, $500 5hp 24". But I changed the oil every year, and drained the gas. It was still running,...

I resisted getting a cordless impact tool for quite some time.
I recently bought the Dewalt DCF895D2. Very nice tool but pricey.
Brushless are a newer development, but you get a lot more battery...

There's a photo on page 53 of the manual.
I can fish around looking on mine.

Beautiful setup. I need to do that.

I'm real chicken. I have a wall mounted switch, which I switch off, and I unplug the cord.

I love the smell of bubinga!

Here's a link to a review on riving knives on various saws. It's worth thinking through how you will be using the saw and what the ratings mean. So take them with a grain of salt!

Whatever you do, don't get a used saw! Most will not have the safety features you need.
Saving a few hundred is hardly worth the danger no matter how safe you try to work.

Myself. I'd get a spiral head cutter if I were to spend $$. I don't think old planers can be upgraded, so be very careful about that category. Make sure you can upgrade if you choose something old...

I don't see much for sale on CL around my area.
But besides that, a lot of the old stuff is really out of date and lacks safety features. I know all you guys think it's fine to miss a finger or...

Craig we are agreeing!
