No experience, although I actually touched one years ago. They were a decent dedicated resaw machine back in the day.

Bryan, no, I'm not up for doing my own spray foam other than corner sealing. I'll get some more current quotes, however, once I'm closer to build. Getting response has been difficult and I may have...

Steve, I don't disagree with TWW's logic on that...a whole bunch of cross cutting really is at 90º in my experience, so a fixed fixture, as it were, can be ideal for a lot of that work. I don't...

I've been thinking about the same thing as I visited this thread each day to see what folks have been saying. I suspect that a digital scale would be a lot more reliable than the optical sensors...

As decent and capable that Mach4 is, Acorn is very much next level, IMHO. It's nice that the option is there to folks to do an upgrade like that.

Yea, it's not something that might be immediately intuitive, but scoring capability can sometimes be a "problem solver" and I'm looking forward to the new slider I bought for the new shop which...

"Old stock" can do that sometimes, even though Zinsser products do seem to have a reasonable shelf life. 'Hope the uber-thin coating resolved things for you!

Mike, while I don't use scoring the majority of the time with solid stock, I have employed it occasionally for something that it was critical for me to get a very clean cut both top and bottom. It's...

That was likely a very good choice for this application...designed for the task for sure.

I"ve only had a cabinet saw in my (temporary shop) for about a year right now and I had to nearly immediately make up a crosscut sled in order to safely (at least for me) do that kind of work. A sled...

Stan, you probably could use metal, but he glue choice would be what it is for metal to wood in a high stress situation and it would be hard to "make it disappear" after finishing. The wood splines...

Making that movable should be, um..."fun"...I'm thinking you need a free-standing stand with casters and need to use quick connect ducting at least at the inlet to accomplish that!

You "should" be able to clean the product off with multiple applications of mineral spirits/naphtha and constantly clean/new rags. It takes patience, but you should be able to do that. That said, be...

What Johnathan said is how I've handled this in the past. If an outfeed solution is "free standing" the way around having a gap is to overhang the outfeed top so it carries over the saw's rear rail.

To do a machined chamfer like you describe, it's likely best to do it prior to assembly so you can take advantage of a fence. At this point, I'd do the abrasives route...make a jig that holds the...

It may be that it's currently so dry in many places that rain exciting the radar may not actually be reaching the ground. I've been having the same challenge here with the radar, too.

Yes, I agree. Once your custom machine is "in the wild", please come back with a thread that gives us the fifty cent tour!

One must choose a scoring blade that matches the kerf width of the main blade or a scoring blade that is adjustable width. IMHO, they must be identical kerf for best results. I own a scoring blade...

'Glad that has paid off for you, Steve...some of use have done upgrades, um...more than once unfortunately. LOL And in all seriousness, you are spot on that folks really need to put more value in...

I'm thankful that some building materials are coming down in price because I'm going to be buying a bunch of material for the interior work in my new shop building in about a month and a half or so....

There actually are hinges available for heavy carriage type doors that eliminates the need for support via a wheel...they are not "chump change" to buy, however, and are "very stout" products. If you...

There is still a "phone number" associated with the text, even from those sources, as SMS rides on the telephony network. There is a gateway server of some form that's taking the communication from...

That does happen. There are also manufacturers the specialize in "store brands".

Another interesting thing about store brands is that there are "store brands" that are specific to a particular...

Yea, this just seemed like the right kind of project to "burn some scrap", as it were...one side and the back is completely hidden and it's not a large construction either, at about 910mm wide.

"Ideal" is straight in. But that's not always practical or possible. Just keep things as gentle as possible...the 30º idea is sound in that respect. Depending on what kind of duct you are using, you...
