I don't like mixing metal and wood cutting saws, simply due to all the metal swarf. What is your total budget to cut both and will a 14" saw suffice for metal cutting? By metal do you mean ferrous...

Glad you got something good out of it. One thing to consider, if they are on Craigslist or the like keep an eye on them. It is unlikely they sell for the prices he is asking and they may come down...
Are you talking about the edge protector for the circular pad? If so it should have come with one. The part number is 497936. They also make a 3 piece "window protector set" with different...
I fold them up put them in a box and dump them. Some people use the backer for scratch stock and the like but I never have. I kept a 1 1/4" carbon blade for that purpose and haven't used any of it...
If it slips on startup, even though there is a lot of weight in those wheels to overcome, it will slip in any significant resawing as well and you likely won't hear it and it will get worse and glaze...
Carl, thanks for the overview. Update us when you have more time with the saw if you have a chance.
The Jets are still my favorite. The old Cabinet Masters were my second favorite.
Ha, that depends on how twisted you are. One of the first things that comes to my mind when someone mentions Maloof is him standing in front of an Agazzani bandsaw roughing out chair parts...
While I suppose it is obvious now it is always a good idea to check every bandsaw blade as soon as you get them in. EVERY blade welder will muck up a weld now and then and some of them will get...
I wouldn't let the 6" resaw height affect my buying decision in this case. It is unlikely you will do any significant amount of resawing at 6" on a saw that has roughly 1/3hp and practically limited...
The answer to the essentially rhetorical question contained in the title is an emphatic NO. This is an issue that is pervasive in hobby forums or for the hobbyists within mixed forums like SMC. I...
Chances are high it is a weld issue. The blade in the video is oscillating at roughly 6hz. The blade length is 111" so 9.25' per oscillation thus 55 1/2' per second so about 3300 fpm. IIRC the...
Get in touch with Jack as Mike K mentioned. He is a member here.
If you have a hard budget I would suggest considering PVC ducting over the admittedly great metal snap lock if it puts a better cyclone within the budget.
I would rule out the short cyclones...
I fear OWWM rule #5 will rear its ugly head here if we don't hear from the OP soon.
OWWM Rule No. 5: In the time between finding a machine and asking others if you should buy it someone else...
You should be on the way to get it IF it meets your needs for a bandsaw. It looks like either a 10" or 12" from the BN/Driver line from the 1930s. Nice little saws for the size and at a fair price...
If you don't want to use a mechanical means to stop the squirm, fine sand, non-slip compounds (for adding to paint) or table salt do a good job and don't reduce the glue's strength below the strength...
There is no doubt that this type of shaper threads has a bit of the ole spindle measuring contest vibe. However, historically they have some of the most interesting information tucked into them.
...
Do you have a link to this? Never heard of Klein shaper tooling. Is it steel or aluminum? It is the only one that strikes me as a massive chunk of metal.
One thing to be aware of is the G0529 has a polyurethane helical gear on the spindle sander, which is part of the reason it is inexpensive. To use a proper metal gear you need to have an oil bath...
This is the outcome I would like to avoid. If we don't hold onto our competitive advantage China will truck stick* us like a running back on a free safety with his feet planted.
* dear Cam...
If only you weren't 1600 miles from the shop I want a bigger shaper for I would be PMng you!. I have kinda settled on the F700Z as being the one I will buy if I get so impatient that I buy new. ...
Most of the good carbide inserts come from Germany. Oella saw and tool is an excellent source of all manner of carbide inserts.
Insert tooling can cause lines in the work, usually, they are so...
It is simply to stimulate an industry that the people in charge of allocating tax revenue believes will benefit the nation and/or state. Electric vehicles will be the norm at some point and it...
The last twist of this thread has me a little confused, though admittedly not a state of mind I am completely unaccustomed to.
While I understand Mark's position and especially when considered in...
