I am very glad to report that the problem is fixed. I cleaned very well the electronic parts with dedicated cleaner as well as verified that all the cables were connected. Above all I waited. I think...

I just bought an old grizzly 15 planer g1021. A previous owner attached a conversion kit that uses a treadmill DC motor to control the feeding speed. He removed one of the sprocket from the gear box...

I removed the cover where the power cord enters the motor. I only see a bunch of wires no diagram. I took a picture of the wires. searching for the manual of this Dayton 2x440x now..

Hi Duane,
I was just uploading some pictures hope they help. There is a good chance that the plug was used just because available but still on a 220v line. There were other 220v machine used at the...

I found that the model is Reliant DD34 and uses a Dayton 2x440x switch drum. Attaching some pictures of the switch diagram and connections.

Is any of you familiar with this shaper? I recently bought it but can not find anywhere on it the model number and maker. The guy that sold it to me told me was a 2hp model and there is clearly a...

Not sure how the grizzly machine is made but I expect that there is a converter inside that uptake your voltage from 120 to 240. The conversion brings its own efficiency losses for a 120v usage. ...

After the research done and the valuable comments received by the forum I will say that my idea of making hardwood floor on such large scale is probably indefinitely at hold.
my next step has been...

Same operating cost. I read that 220v is reccomanded for machines that stay on for extended time as the low voltage 110v dissipates more heat.
For me the choice is also based on what other tools you...

Keith,
as you anticipated the price for the raw wood I had was unfortunatly for material not yet dried. an additional $0.40 -$0.60 for BL need to be added for the kiln.

Peter and all,
this weekend I will step for the first time in a wood mill and understand a bit more of what I am facing here. The prices I mentioned were derived by these numbers posted on the local...

I agree that if I decide to do so much floor I should consider a more expensive grade to maximize the effort. For now I selected red oak because it is readily available, I have not searched for...

Thank Peter,
- apart from the flooring project here discussed you basically are recommending as a general technique to straight both the short edges of the board with the table saw. I see.. I should...

Thank you Keith,
after reading your comments I have learned that:
- it is better to flat with the jointer the larger side of the board first (I would have done the smaller first)
- I had in mind...

I have little experience with woodworking and I am now fixated on the idea of making hardwood floors from raw lumber. This would be my first big project. To do this I plan to purchase a 10 inches...
