In the end I took the planer to a Dewalt service centre and got them to replace the bearings

Hi All, Has anyone replaced the bearings on the cutter block on DW1150 Planer? If so could you offer any advice on carry out the proceedure. Are there any instructions available for replacing the bearings? Many thanks

I am interested to hear how people measure the ratios of lacquer & catalyst when mixing AC lacquer. The ratio is 1 part catalyst to 10 parts lacquer. Many thanks

Is it advisable to cut the panel the exact size of slightly smaller?

Just constructed a angled test door and the joints at the angled end do slip when pressure is applied. Left horns for clamping on top rail.

There is nothing to stop the the angles rails slipping even using Vee blocks or leaving horns on the rails for clamping. As pressure is applied the joints will slip.

So they are clamped together, I can foresee difficulties clamping the angles end. Any ideas on this? If clamping Surely the pins are not necessary unless the clamps are removed straight after pinning

Still no answer to my question regarding gluing up and clamping.

I assume the frame is clamped together or is it just glued and pushed together and left to dry? If clamped it may be difficult with a irregular shaped door. Yes the door shape can be broken down into components. The shape is square at the bottom with angled top

Old thread being revived. Can the method described by jasonB be used for doors that are not square or rectangular? If so how are the frames glued up?

I replaced the main fuse to the workshop and it seems to be working ok for now. It is strange that I did not have issues with my other machinery with similar switches. Thanks for all the input & advice

Nothing until I press the red off button then the green on button again and the same thing happens - starts but cuts out. If I repeat the proceedure - pressing the green & red buttons the machine does eventually run

Power is getting there as it starts but almost immediately cuts out

I assume the next thing to do is try to replace the on/off switch??

Tried that, it was pretty much dust free
