Hi, so I have (a while back) made a Sellars style bench and installed a York vice (not much else is available in Norway). This has been bothering me, again a while now, and I have decided to remedy it. The quick release works nicely, always has but trying to pull it open is a struggle. I have...

So I have a Jet DC1100 dust collector, and as it has a motor of a certain output it has an NVR installed. Why oh why put one on a dust collector? Saws..sure, routertable...sure. Anyway, I am no electrician so I am not about to rewire anything. However, I tested out simply taping the "ON"...

So I took delivery of my first bandsaw, assembled and installed a blade. Adjusted table to blade (90 degrees on blade). Drift on fence etc etc. I set the wheel to place the gullet in the center of the wheel (i.e. Snodgrass method), this causes the blade to be not 90 degrees when I measure from...

So I am waiting on delivery of a Laguna 1412 from my local supplier i Norway in early September. The Laguna 1412 can take blades from 2914-2946 mm according to the manual. I have read (here) that Tuffsaw is the place to go for blades, unfortunately due to Covid-19 (and then possibly Brexit)...

In the near future (hopefully soon pending the misses) I am getting a bandsaw. Primarily for resawing, only CLS lumber available so all lumber I get is rough sawn. The Laguna 14-12 is actually cheaper than the 350 Sabre and they share more or less the same specifications. Anyone have any...

Just a quick question. In order to save time and elbow grease, can "gentle" sandblasting be used to remove grime and rust from old planes? I realise that gentle and sandblasting don't really go hand in hand. I have access to a smaller sandblasting cabinet that is used to refurbish smaller...

Hi, so I got some offcuts when the neighbeur layed a new deck. Wife has been asking for a serving tray/slab to have on an ottomon to prevent my beer from spilling. I have never worked with Merbau before. I know that all holes need to be predrilled due to the density/brittleness of the...

So I’m looking at getting a bandsaw. Primarily to be used for re-sawing, veneers etc. Don’t think I will be cutting many reindeers. Getting second hand i.e. Startrites are few and far between. Most second hand of smaller capacity and the lower end of quality (brands). Based on that I figure...

So I received the saw a while back and it stayed in the box as I was finishing my Sellers bench. Once out I started taking some measurements to make a Table Saw "Station". And then I started fettling and assembling, this is when I started scratching my head. The blade, when at 90 degrees...

Anyone have it? Like it? Dislike it?

With the arrival of the P/T (107PT) and soon table saw and band saw, the necessity for a chip extractor is evident. For the mitre, sanding, router etc I have a couple of shop-vacs that are used. The maximum length of 100 mm pipe/hose that will be used is ~7 m (if I make a duct system). I was...

Axminister is low on stock. Any recommendation for other suppliers of the carbide cutters for the AT107PT? Thanks

With the release of the AC216TS and the AT254(L)TS, there appears to be a void. Has anyone heard if there is a "TS250" type saw in the pipeline? The AT254 type is a bit pricey and fairly large. And yes, I am looking at getting a table saw for a one car garage and am not looking to get bogged...

I’m in the market for a P/T, the used market is a bit slim here in Norway. However there is a HC260 K for sale (I’ve spoken to him and all the pieces are there). Link to ad (Norwegian) https://www.finn.no/bap/forsale/ad.html ... =144733473 He’s asking 10000 NOK, for comparison the Axi AC260PT...

Need a new dust extractor as " dropped" my Kärcher on the ground. I have some Festools and hoses that I had jimmied in the Kärcher. The Bosch is currently a lot cheaper than a Festool 26 (plus it has more capacity and air flow). However I was wondering about hose compatibility, can I make a...

Hi all. This is my first post, I have been lurking in here a short while and I am amazed at some of the projects I find the Projects Thread. I've been using the search function to the best of my ability. I am in the process of remodeling a house from 1925 in Norway (I am using the term...
