As usual, I greatly appreciate the input of this group. Yes, David, the spindle was tilted. Not sure how that happened as I never adjust that, but it was off vertical. I swept it anyway and got even front, right, and back but 0.06mm high on the out feed side. That's weird, but probably within tolerance.?
Joe, this is the Amana SC542 cutter set. It cuts a full profile, including the tenon. I had adjusted the fence for the profile cut but had not checked the cope. It was indeed about 3mm short. So, moving the fence back to get a full tenon on the cope cut now yields a terrible snipe on the profile cut. So much for the idea that these cutters are a matched set that can be used in a stacked arrangement.?
It appears that I'll have to do different setups for copes and then change everything and set back up for the profiles. That's hardly convenient. Am I missing something?
Pictures: the joint is now flat, but the tenon is still ever so slightly short. I might need to back the fence up slightly.?
Without using a back fence (which I don't have), I'm concerned about changing the width of my stock. Also, it looks like I should get the 240V supply hooked up so I can use this F38 power feeder. I really wish it was 120V.
