    Surfaced means it's been planed enough to remove the sawtooth pattern and meet a specified rough thickness. Period. To expect ready to sand and assemble is completely out of the question, and the...

    ^^This.
    For me, that does not scare me, it is a relief. What's scary is the seemingly general listing of the population into non-thinking, as there's less effort involved.
    It is artificial...

    I am in the phase converter camp. VFD's are regularly spoken of lately as a substitute, presumably as a cheaper way to get the job done. If you know you will never buy another machine in this...

    Former insurance agent here.
    1> Once you buy a "replacement cost" policy and it's issued, you have replacement cost. However, hail, especially in my market, is an immense issue. So, before issuing...

    One last suggestion: Is the front of the drawer box twisted and causing the applied front to do the same? I'd pull that face off and see, as you could easily sand/plane that into submission and maybe...

    Not to be contradictory, but I follow the literal meaning of "flush" when producing such cabinets, and would encourage you to meet the wife's spec as close as possible.

    FWIW: I have the floor standing model # 719T, if that's the model you bought? Year of mfg: 2014. The motor plate shows 1HP rating 11amps at 110V / 5.5 amps at 230V
  9. PSA: Woodworker's Supply / Woodtek Machinery Closing

    Sad news - Woodworker's Supply, a 50 year mail order/online woodworking supplier is shutting down August 25th.
    Very kind of them to send me a notice of this. They were somewhat like Grizzly, in that...

    +2
    Surprised how many times online purchases don't actually post to my CC until very close to delivery day, or on it, as though coordinated deliberately. Main thing I monitor is that the balance be...

    Oella saw and tool. Remarkable savings over the price direct from Griz. Just make sure you're ordering the right size - even email an image to them if you need something really odd. Most of these...

    Product recommendation: Smith & Company CEPS (clear epoxy penetrating sealer). Designed for such applications, water thin for fast, deep absorption and should follow those fissures very well.

    In consideration of the possibility this will become an ongoing venture, it's never too soon to learn one of the best/easiest and well supported. Vectric products are what I'd recommend, especially...

    20HP phase perfect ran me about $6k 3 years ago. Rotary can be had for about half that, but you'll need a 30-40HP with a rotary to adequately deal with a 20HP load. Conversely, my 20HP Phase Perfect...

    Brian,
    Thank you - I copied/pasted/printed that and will insert into my SCM si315es manual. That's not how I adjusted mine when new, but I like the idea much better, even though I fumbled my way...

    I too, have tried extender, theorizing that staying wet longer should assist in self leveling. All I got was very close the same undesired results plus sags due to the extended dry time. Solution:...

    Terribly sorry Ron - thought I had done just that, but allow me to clarify:
    That larger city I'm referring to is a mere 75,000 in population, so still, by most standards, a small town, and no way am...

    Just the way our local hospital does business, which I believe still is classified as a non-profit. And they are hurting, similar to the Denver system, who went in the red to the tune of many...

    This is the crux of it all, and that's an understatement for sure. We got lulled into the numbers over the years and mistook it for reality. If you were paying attention over the last decade, the...
