Proper method of setting is to locate your stock under the arm of each guide adjacent to the wheel, tighten and you will have the proper clearance set.

My system is this:
3 HP Jet cyclone, in a corner, one main line of 4" drain pipe, with connections and blast gates downstream for table saw, bandsaw, jointer. Also two drops with expandable 4"...
I recently removed my hinged fold down outfeed table from my saw - it was nice, large and laminate covered. Instead i built a smaller mobile table with a removable top. One side has miter slots, the...
When i bought my Dubuque clamps, i bought 8 each of 48s, 36s and 24s. Of those i mostly use the 24's. Since getting the Dubuques I haven't lifted one of my Bessey parallels off the rack. Once you use...
Glad you're getting better results. I'm getting old now and eyesight isn't what it was, but still remember the way i learned in machinist apprenticeship. This was one of the first things we were...
My thoughts exactly; Mine is in a Rockler phenolic table that I've modified with drawers and dust bucket (box) It's a pleasure to use.
i would wrap 2" blue tape around for a cut line after careful measurement at several places and use some kind of rotary tool. If cut in a bandsaw for safety I'd make some kind of sled it could be...
Funny this thread began, today i started building small boxes and storage shelves inside a cabinet to replace the small cardboard boxes from the big box store. I don't store many wood screws in my...
My first attempt at a router table was mounting a small Craftsman router on one end of a 12" x 24" 3/4" board. Screwed a short 2x2 on the other end and clamp that in a vise. Router sat on the bench....
Bending plywood is pretty easily available and comes 3/8" typically. Sometimes called wacky wood. Both barrel and column forms.
I saw a Utube by Matthew Cremona where he used thermally modified elm? i think to build a garden bench. Sounds ideal to work with, like the properties of the wood have changed & reduce internal...
Whether or not a planer is compatible with your neighbors is something only you can answer. As for getting sound ratings from my Makita? Most of my equipment (on wheels) is inaccessible right now....
It seems that so far I'm the only one responding who does have the Makita planer. How loud is it? I don't do sound comparison reviews but I can tell you it's much quieter than the DeWalt I had a few...
If you can afford one, the Albrecht chucki is the one you want. During my machinist apprenticeship, a friend bought one. The price was about $500 back in the late 70's. If the quality is as good...
A good but costly solution is a scalloping planer; some brands have optional knives in concave shapes. I had a Festool with those options. It will give a smooth, yet carved appearance.
There are additives for paint to bring it to fire retardant levels. We used a lot of it on stage scenery. Rose Brand is a supplier. 800-223-1624 is one location
My dust collector has arrived; picking up tomorrow. Good thing I wasn't in a hurry. Still need to run electric for this and the new bandsaw.
No. Have you ever had success with that? thanks
I'm not hopeful for moving things along any quicker. I'm still getting ready making room and still need electrical work done. Hopefully it'll arrive soon.
I ordered a Jet 3HP cyclone DC early in August and keep getting excuses from Woodcraft. Anyone else having problems with Jet shipments? thanks
In the past I've made my own from steel, have also used several brands but the only one i'll use now is the Rockler all terrain base. Wheels are I think 5"; very adjustable, easy to maneuver and...
Glad for you all who are comfortable with metric. I was taught over 50 years ago that metric would be universal very soon. If that works for you, whatever makes you happy in your shop. Decimal inches...
if you have any bending plywood around, it would work great for that and it could be doubled up if needed. It comes 3/8" typically
I have ordered true BB from Lowes, believe it or not. If i remember right, it came from Indiannapolis. Their commercial sales can order it in if they want to. At least here in Louisville
There's no doubt it is more work, but it's what I've done in my last two homes and glad i did. Another advantage is my counters aren't lowered by 3/4" . I've encountered problems installing...
