    Table saw sliding carriage or not??

    Re all of you above talking about the electrics. I’m going to have to do some background research on this to have a full understanding of what you are saying. It obviously makes sense but I have no proper working understanding of how to problem solve and think freely in that area of electrics...

    Table saw sliding carriage or not??

    May I ask how you went from a hammer budget to getting 700series? It’s fine if you would rather not say. Did you get second hand? I know what you mean, I thought the hammer was more sturdy than the small CMS if I’m honest then felt the 500 with the x roll and it was so sturdy. I just don’t...

    Sploo, that’s a great bit of advice and I’ve saved that to my notebook so I can query it with my friend who’s doing my electrics. Just one thing though, there is no way of knowing if your power supply can handle the load prior to actually loading it is there? It’s just that when I say I’m at the...

    Thanks deema and pollys13 That’s a pretty damn comprehensive comment. I did think about ordering in the stuff cut to size as I have a friend in London who does just that and has great results. I think they charge something like 30p a cut? However I’m way down at the bottom of the country so the...

    Table saw sliding carriage or not??

    Thanks to all of you for all the helpful advice. Starting to sway towards a smaller saw with slider on my bench. To the guy above, the place I worked at was called Winfrey’s and it went under for reasons I wouldn’t share with others. They did however pass over customers. In regards to machine...

    Also sideways That guys workshop is pretty damn cool! Really like the clamping rail system he’s got and that whole area in general. However the budget is so huge it’s not very relatable to myself. I mean, the guy has a damn forklift! I worked in a shop with 13 of us producing and we didn’t even...

    Table saw sliding carriage or not??

    Thanks Jonathan Il take all of that on board. Defo a sliding carriage then. Basically I need more space as we all do but as it stands I own my workshop outright so have no overheads, plus it’s on my property so I can always nip out in the evenings to spray another coat of paint. As for storage...

    Table saw sliding carriage or not??

    Thanks a lot Yeah I’m defo leaning more towards just getting one in, it kinda dominating the space but it’s my main tool so il deal with it. Was looking at a SCM SC4 and another Felder model. Only a 1.6 or 2.0 carriage but as long as I can crosscut a sheet I’m good I recon. That’s a damn good...

    Table saw sliding carriage or not??

    Thanks Pete So why would you still need a cabinet saw as well? I can see it would be handy if you could use a dado with it and maybe another mitre slot on the right of the blade but other than that what could you do with it that you couldn’t on the table saw?

    Table saw sliding carriage or not??

    Hello I am a cabinet/furniture maker. I have been made redundant from the place I worked and am starting up my own shop with the redundancy package plus an extra loan. The thing is... I was absolutely spoiled in my last shop and had everything you could ever want from a 4 sider, full size panel...
