Hi All,
I have been lurking around the forums for some time now on the assumption that hanging around experienced people may somehow rub off, so thought its about time i said hello.
My name is Steve, living near Watford, 35. Have had an interest in woodworking for a few years now. Started with general DIY round the house, i've made a few items over the years in pine such as small tables, set of bedroom draws etc. Next project i hope to move into hardwoods with oak corner display cabinet.
I have a strange collection of tools aquired over the years including a 30 year old Elu lathe and an even older makita router which looks like it could power a small airplane. More recently a Sip compound Mitre saw and scroll saw and a few b&q specials. I hang my head in shame now.
Anyways onto the questions. Appologies if these have already been answered, do a search for Kity 419 here and you get over 100 pages!
I would like to set fire the noisy banshee that b&q laughingly refer to as a table saw before it sets fire to itself and destroys any more wood. Ideally the SIP 10" everyone is raving about, but more probably the Kity 419.
The SIP says it needs a 16Amp supply, can anyone tell me how this is hooked up? Also how much power does it really need? The shed is 150 foot from the CU on 8mm armour cable so i'm maxed out around 20amps including extraction, lighting and radio. Its going to be pushing it.
Also can anyone tell me if there are any real differences between the new (probably) chinese made Kity 419s and the older French made originals? Is it better to get say the axminster 200 over the new generation of Kity?
Thanks in advance
