I got a G700 about 8 months ago and love it.
Just for anyone who is considering one, I use it really only on 2 machines : a Minimax CU300 classic and a Minimax S400p.
It works great for both...
I'm not sure you can get a Clearvue Cyclone for 1k can you?
The Harvey G700 is very often on sale for right around $2k , I got mine for $2100 (which to be honest isn't a great deal , I should have...
I guess I have a different perspective than most here, as I was in the same place as you were awhile back.
I called and talked to Sam about a J/P and he happened to mention a 'scratch and dent'...
I am in a similar situation - combo machine in a 2 car garage.
I chose the Minimax CU300 Classic , and have no regrets. Its a great machine.
I also debated whether or not to get casters. I chose...
Has anyone seen, or had any experience with the new VF dust collections that SCM is bringing into the US?
The smallest model is the VF125 , and it looks like it would compete against the Felder RL...
I also bought the MM16 during the sale and worked with Sam (awesome experience - also bought my CU300 from him a few years ago). I am still waiting , and currently my saw is 'on the water' according...
Matt,
I bought a CU300 for my garage shop - (hobby woodworker) and love it. If you are short on space they can't be beat if you want to dimension your own lumber. The footprint really isn't that...
Quick question for the cflux owners , (or anyone who may know) - can you order a better filter for this machine from Wynn or another company with higher filtration ratings, larger surface area etc?
Just wanted to jump in and say that I too have the CU300 classic (new version) and I *love* it. It's an absolutely incredible machine.
I have the 8.5' slider, and I am working in a 2 car garage. ...
I am just a hobby user , and got my CU300 last year.
After using it for a year, I must say I am extremely happy with the decision I made.
It is simple, heavy, and very accurate. I wouldn't have...
I know there was a guy last year in Charlotte that was selling his Lab300 for not a whole lot more than that. I'm not sure if he still has it or not.
I don't know how open to change you are , but personally I would probably remove the table saw (and outfeed table) and put in a small combo machine - namely the Minimax lab300 or c26 .
For the same...
Erik,
I understand, and some guys don't mind the risk, while some would rather have the piece of mind buying new.
I personally would probably not have ended up with a combo machine had it not been...
Erik,
I would think there would be a good opportunity in that for you guys. I know there would be Creekers lined up to take advantage of opportunities like that.
I believe I actually got one of...
I put my CU300 on casters - I rented a narrow fork pallet jack from sunbelt - Worked like a charm and took 15 minutes to put on all 4 (the feet were already prepared for stem casters). I think it...
Thanks everyone for the hearty round of 'ducks'!
For anyone else interested, I would ping Sam and see if there are any other 'scratch and dent' machines available. Not for the risk averse, the...
It actually appears to be an old SCMI combo machine - at 1:49 you can see the jointer tables flipped up on the left. It also looks to have the slider outrigger mounted right next to the power feeder...
Well guys,
I was going to wait on this post until I got my first project finished with it, but I keep thinking now would be an appropriate time (considering this type of post may go the way of the...
I would recommend going with the fernco , I tried the same size coupler from another brand but it was much stiffer , slightly smaller and didn't fit without carving the inside edge out like the above...
I looked at this machine awhile back, before I got my current combo machine, but I don't think the Baileigh is worth the premium over this:...
