Cheers Kev I have asked them what size shaft it takes. Thinking on it though the feeder will probable live on the moulder and only moved to the table saw for specific jobs as I can envisage having a foot bolted to the table saw would obstruct the workspace if you get what I mean, I can see...

The good thing about waiting on parts to arrive it holds one back to get other things done. Yesterday I got the final coat of paint on the wheel cover, made a lift handle, I was going to buy one but hate waiting plus most of the ones out there are plastic and I am...
While waiting on bearing I decided to make up the wheel cover that’s missing. I had an offcut of 2mm sheet. I folded the edge and
put it in the shrinker

I cut some fixing pieces which I welded the cover to.
Once I was pleased with the shape...
Hi all since getting the power feeder back its been cleaning de-rusting and un-siezing the clamps and slides, I have bolted it to a lump of timber at the moment that way I can move it about while working on it, I actually like it and I may make something similar to use permanently, as it would...
spent a few hours last week sorting out some cogs and other useful bit to start building this power feeder, then this popped up for sale at a very reasonably negotiated price.
I picked it up today and it has notbeen used for a long time, so Monday I shall start stripping it down as I bought...

I pulled off...
Just to round off this post

Cheers Kev (y)yes I have seen that image some ware before, I am looking into making a power feeder when I get time they dont look difficult to make. If I make one I will let you know.

This will probably be my last post on this, so thanks to all the tips and...

Well after checking out the prices of the knobs and levers expensive or what:eek: for what they are, plus the ones I wanted they are out of...
Bit of an update.
I had my Wealden tool co catalogues and price lists arrive yesterday, I had a quick read before bed lol:) I am pleasantly surprised with the cost of some of the cutters. Today I have got the fence adjusters more or less finished, and attached to the main hood part...
