Not quite sure if this response will work or not as this is my first
time in a chat room.
I appreciate your response. In regard to your question and suggestion.
The first name is Rod and I support your idea about getting together
for a BBQ.
You most likely passed my house as you headed into Orting, I'm located
just off highway 161 about two miles north of Orting. You mentioned
that there are two other Felder owners in the area and although I have
not heard from them to date, I hope to in the near future.
Have not had a chance to check the vault as of yet but will be doing so
shortly. Look forward to seeing your shop pictures in addition the
other postings. Always nice to see how others set up their workspace
as there is always something new that I have never thought of doing.
When my wife and I decided to move to the Orting valley it was not
without some regret as I had just finished build a 1,000 sq. ft. shop
which I had to leave behind. I now occupy a 200 sq. ft. garage space.
Oh well, had to keep my wife happy and I did end up with a Felder
machine after all was said and done!
Although off the subject of Felder, I suspect that there may be a wood
turner or two out there as well. I am a member of the South Puget
Sound Chapter of the American Association of Woodturners.

Welcome to the group! I'm in Everett and was out your way on business
a few
years ago (in Orting, actually). Now there are at least four of us
from this
area on the felder-woodworking forum... maybe we should have a BBQ
get-together this summer.
I also have a used BF6-31... a 1997 model. My experience with Felder
USA is
similar - I think they intend to make lifetime customers out of us
(isn't
that sneaky of them). I feel like I bought a green Mercedes that makes
sawdust instead of burning rubber. Pretty slick.
If you don't mind, what is your first name? I only see your first
initial...
..Geoff

Subject: [felder-woodworking] Hello
Just logged on to this site and read with great interest all the
comments to Geoff's question. I was glad to hear (or rather read)
that
I have in fact made the right decision in purchasing a Felder BF
6-31.
