Again, I’ll repeat myself, I never said it was all sawstops.
It was a wide enough problem for them to write letters to affected customers and to have zero nationwide inventory to fix/replace.

Well documented in another post. They had an issue for a while, never said every saw. I had to make videos and everything. When the blade is at 45 it had a very high likelihood of throwing the off...
As long as the sawstop patents are expiring, this isn't as big of a concern for me. I expect most major companies have had their eye on developing and implementing the technology for years. The only...
30 feet and you'll survive. I'm pushing 500 feet on this project. Every night I lay down in bed and I ask myself "did I unplug the iron!?!?" :confused:
Dims available through manufacturers.
For some reason I’ve always felt weird about taking advantage of that. Maybe it’s because it’s more hassle for my local vendor.
Your method is, undoubtedly, my preferred way of edge banding. However, this is stain grade work, all with the rift sawn doug fir look. The 1/4" top and bottom band running the opposite direction...
The speed of the Conturo is really what I fear about it. I'm sure it does excellent work but you are correct, every single piece of edge banding has to be individually cut and then fed into the...
Interesting idea. How’s the durability vs iron on?
Oh absolutely, time contribution is a big deal. Fully setup with the conturo is $4500 (with its table). If I did, even two kitchens in a year that were all edge banded I’d definitely be seeking out a...
Seeing as how I have not used an edge banding machine before, I appreciate that perspective a lot. It’s such a rarity for me to do edge banding that I’d want great results with minimal hassle if I...
I did, but to be honest that machine comes with a stiff price tag and I’m not convinced it would be wildly faster. I’d want an in person timed demo to confirm value before purchase.
Historically, I do very little edge banding. However, I'm working on a kitchen right now that when all said and done has several hundred pieces. Somewhere along the way I realized I don't actually...
I've been using a slider for a while now but before I had it I preferred a cabinet table with a euro style fence for this exact reason.
Call me crazy but I hate those green boxes :D my tools go in drawers or on shelves, those boxes are a nightmare for me.
I find I generally use a biscuit joiner or my lamello joiner far more than...
Nope. Maybe for you, for specific tasks, but not overall.
Not a big learning curve, get good clamps for your track, they are worth their weight in gold. I'm right handed and appreciate the right side blade for safety. It makes it more difficult for me to...
Looks great! I bet you're loving using it.
Fantastically intriguing project. Something I have never considered building and can really only imagine how much time and thought went into this!
Thanks Lee,
I don't have too many more photos but if there's something specific you'd like to see let me know and I can try to snap one. I used the surf foil pictured below to make a...
Thanks for the compliments everyone!
From a professional standpoint I wanted something that was easy for me to use, easy to instruct clients to use, zero voc, and had some color options. Rubio...
Pretty piece, strong distaste for the knots, looks more museum than home use. Looks well built.
Work and play keep me busy enough that I don't often get to build for myself. When I do, I usually try to pack in a bunch of different challenges, ideas, concepts I've come across so I can learn as...
Thanks for the heads up on the spray Mark. I remembered this comment and read the instructions about inflating the bag with air before filling, and then promptly disregarded the instructions. I kept...
For what it's worth, since you've already applied a coat of 2c the sheen coat goes a long ways with a little bit. $230 for the 1.3l container so you definitely want to make it count!
