    I had a Jet 52" table saw. I got a Festool track saw, as the 4'x8' were too difficult to handle, especially without an outfeed table (I even did a couple sets of kitchen cabinets with it). I sold it...

    I bought a used BF631 and used it for years. I moved & sold the machine. It was a good combo machine. I moved & had to sell it. About 8 years later, have a SS & Hammer A341. For Under $4k, I'd...

    ACME had a hidden sale last week. $100 off and added in a $30 gift card. Got the Milwaukee Track saw kit ordered for $429 plus the gift card (so, actually $399). I did not order the kit with the...

    I'll join in agreement with John. I had a Felder all in one. It was kind of a hassle having the jointer bed being part of the table saw "capacity", or removing the shaper parts to run a piece...

    I had the Jet 14" for a few years. Sold it to "upgrade" to a 20" Aggazani. I missed the fine curves with the thinner blades (1/8", 3/16",1/4"). I bought another Jet w/ 12" solid frame (vs riser...

    Thanks Derek. I thought so. I recall finding out late that they were being made and none were available in the US anymore. I contacted a shop in Australia & was able to buy 2 and have them shipped to...

    I did not think Lie Nielsen made a 4½ in bronze at any point, other than their 500 Anniversary planes, signed by Tomas?

    Ok, I've never heard of a "Tough Tool". I bought my 19-38 a couple years ago off CL. I just wasted a roll of 40 grit. When it came off the drum & started "thwap" sanding the inside of the housing, as...

    Steve, as far as your plans go, I was there in the past. I got a 3hp table saw with 52" fence. When I went to cut cabinets, it was next to impossible to manage a 4x8 sheet by myself & keep the sheet...

    I have a 14" Jet, which usually runs a 3/16“ blade for curved cuts. I have a 21" Grizzly 5hp for resawing or straight line rips. I don't think I would ever use a 3rd one, as there is enough room...

    They did once make a bronze 4 1/2. It was their 25th Anniversary plane & they said they would never make them again. I was able to procure one from Australia. Hand signed by Thomas. Last one I saw a...

    That looks like a great deal. I had a BF6-31 for about 10 years. I sold it about 8 yrs ago, when I moved for about $5k. It only had a 4' slider. It was really nice, but that one is much nicer! Just...

    I have not had a problem like you're describing. I mark over from an edge using a tape measure, near one end of the cut, then do the same at the other end of the cut. I then put the track's cut...

    I've been using the 2" version of this for about 8 years under my Festool's track. I keep it in my plywood stack in my garage.

    I felt the same way about how Gauss went about the marketing, but I also understand the industry "giants" at the time were not really willing to barter with him over royalties.

    The other interesting thing is that the damage is all on the side away from the fence. You weren't using a miter bar by chance?

    Kory, that would be a great saw and a good price.

    If you're going to wire in 220v, then use 10 gauge wire & put a few in. As long as you don't have more than 1 machine running at once, your good....

    I would not buy a bench top jointer. They are generally of a cheap construction & have short beds, for convenience.

    Just get a plug for a 240v and take the 30 seconds to switch the plug out. I have had 4 bandsaws. A 14" is a great start, as you can run a narrow blade for tight curves. I think resawing is a bit...
