@Sachakins Have you got this up and running? Was contemplating either the 2 or 3 motor Camvac and wondering if the 3 motor is worth it because of the extendable switch box, but remote controlled switches would be ideal.

I think sharing the selection of tools I use and my thoughts on them could be useful. I keep the manual, invoice and photo of the machine plate in that database so I either need to move those things somewhere else or be happy to share them. Not happy to share the invoice but wondering about the...

I'm considering sharing a database of my tools and I'm wondering whether I should go to lengths to hide the serial numbers. Interested to know what potential issues I may run into if I freely share serial numbers of my tools (specifically the photograph of the sticker/machine plate). Thanks.

What did you end up doing and how did they turn out? I'm contemplating this same question now and wondering whether untreated larch might work well. I guess it won't last as long as treated/maintained but thinking along the larch cladding idea. Was thinking to build a door in similar style to...

I think you could well be right. To be fair to the electrician he said could be either 16A or 20A but I was keen for 16A so I could use the same plug for another machine if I move things around. However, it's not that hard to move a socket so I'll go with 20A for the A3 41 and 16A for all the...

To make things more complicated, just spoke with Felder support and was told: HS950 - 16A MCB N4400 - 16A or 20A MCB A3 41 - 20A MCB - will run on 16A but 20A will be more reliable. Sales rep sent over this screenshot for the A3 41. I noticed the supplied power cable is 4mm2.

Thank you for all the information. I had thought it was to do with startup inrush but wasn't sure if current under load would be higher also. As I understand it, there's no way of knowing just from the motor power rating but one can make an estimation based on a formula that takes a few...

Hello I have 3 new machines and I'm wondering if there are any rules of thumb to follow for what the maximum current a motor will draw? For example I have: Axminster T-2000CK-200H dust extractor Motor 1.5kW Running load 6.5A Came with a 16A plug and is on a 16A MCB. However the running load is...

Thank you so much for posting this. It feels a little over my head but I'm going to have a look at the switch and see if I can figure it out. Thanks.

Interesting thread - thanks. Has anyone done this successfully? I have the same dust collector and would love to wire in a remote control.

Did you go for the Hammer in the end and how are you liking it?

I've had a somewhat similar experience. I followed the same Matt Estlea video and applied 2 coats to 4 birch ply desk tops. A few months later they all seem to have water damage where the grain feels a bit raised and the surface is rough. Is that normal for Polyx? I have another birch ply desk...

Well that ought to do it! I was wondering how much difference there is between the two as the size difference isn't huge but it's a big difference in price. Like £800 more for 30cms of length and 5cm of width or something along those lines.

Interesting feedback thanks. Did you look at/consider the AT129PT before getting the 107?

I was just thinking exactly the same thing but alas no replies.

@doug Nice, thanks for the info. Appreciate it.

Just what I was looking for! Ordered one now. And one for spares.

I could be. Can you give some more info?

@doug very interesting indeed. Thanks. I probably won't have access to another saw :-( What did you think of the general quality of the machine and the sturdiness of the sliding table? Did it seem rigid and accurate or a bit flimsy? The PS250 that is, and indeed the PS315.

@doug Very interesting. Did you also compare the PS315? I noticed the fixed rip fence has a t slot in the side which could take another fence. How would the measurement scale be updated though? Does it have a functionality to change that so you can still use it with an extra fence?
