I may have answered my own question. Looks like I need to find lacquer thinner and not paint thinner or mineral spirits. Thanks

Thanks John. I only tried to thin a small portion. This was based on a video from Craft Supplies where the demonstrator was turning a pepper mill and said he finished it with Deft Clear lacquer...

Can anyone tell me what this looks like in the can. I received a can through Amazon. When opened, it was a milky white (looked more like a waterbed product). I expected a clear/amber type look. I...

Patrick Walsh, You must be related to my wife (except I am the Irish half) ! I say that as a compliment.

Thanks Van. They did mention including a guide with settings for bandsaw blades of various widths. I appreciate your comments and insight.

Kieran

Anybody tried out the new bandsaw blade tension guide from Monarch Industrial. If so, thoughts/comments?

Thanks,

Kieran

Thanks for sharing your method. They look great.

Kieran

Thanks for the info.

Thanks Van

Thanks Glenn. That might do the trick. I am not sure how tightly you can fasten it. I was also thinking about one of the knobs the "cool" guys had on their steering wheels!

Agreed Erik! Maybe I could add two.

Sometimes I find the handle difficult/awkward to turn. Has anybody added a swivel handle (like that on the tail stock of a Powermatic 3520) to make things easier? Hope the question makes sense?

Very nice looking. Any quick tutorial on the glue-up?

Thanks

Thanks Malcolm. Hope you don't mind a few more questions as I delve in to this a bit deeper. Your above diagram was very helpful and starting to help gel some plans in my head.

Thanks again,

Malcolm, do you think these would work for the S1, S2, etc. I have two machines running off 110 v and others with 220 v. Thanks, Kieran
...

Thanks Malcolm. I will look at that and see if I can figure it out!

I am hoping to design it so at least in the first phase, I would use an IR remote that when I hit a specific button, that will tell the blast gate to open which in turn would switch the dust...

Looks like the solenoids can be 12 V DC, 24 volt DC or 110 V AC. I have decided to go with 24 volt DC version. I am planning on having a relay that will be connected to an Arduino (never even knew...

Thanks for all the suggestions/input. I think I have a fun project ahead of me.

Thanks Dan. I will take a look.

Has anybody here made these? I assume your source of air would be your compressor? I would like to try to reduce noise and not need my compressor cycling off and on to power these. I have also been...

Found the Carter guides it shipped with to be a PITA to adjust. Could not get a response from MM when I inquired about changing over to the european guides. Retrofitted mine with Laguna ceramics. So...

I posted a bit back regarding using the ceramic guides. This is my solution for getting the bottom guides to fit. Had a local machine shop turn down some round aluminum stock to fit the hole on the...

Hi Jerry,
Thanks. The newer S400P has a different bracket for the carter guide. I ordered some 20 mm circular aluminum stick with I think I will drip and tap. I think I can then cut threads on the...

Mike,
When I ordered them, I did not see an option for different models/versions. I will try to give them call and see what they can do. Thanks
