Has anybody done anything to improve the extraction on the sip table saw.
It seems to be quite poor and I have thought about trying to improve it.
I use a large bag type extractor which shifts a fair amount of air.

You should use polycarbonate which is also called lexan but that could be just a brand name.
It's the same stuff they make riot shields out off.
I have used it for big curved boat windscreens and it's as far as I can tell it's indestructible.
But it will scratch so over time you would not be...
I was pricing some 18mm oak faced mdf today at my local yard.
£39 Plus vat for a full sheet.

a chuck for drilling as well as an angled screwdriving attachment.

I mounted the motor inside the workshop and just put the bag unit outside.
This way the electrics are all inside and handy and the nasty dust is outside.
I would definatly go for a 2hp unit if I was you as you need to suck as much air as...

I am not sure why your doors are behaving this way after dipping.
After washing,drying and treating with vinegar I never had any problems.
But I preferred to sand down my doors to remove the old finish as it was
quick and obviously no problem with chemicals.
I also had lots of panels to...

In my last house I restored the pitch pine staircase and doors.
For the doors which had been butchered in the 50'S by having the mouldings removed and covered in hardboard, I found the best way to strip them was with my metabo random orbit sander.
I then fitted new mouldings and varnised...
