Re: Radial Drill Press purchase
Hi Joel, Make darn sure the seller tightens all handles and be sure to check before you unload if and handle is not locked they are a very unstable load and could end up on the ground. Mac,,,

Re: FB510 Vibration
ACM makes two series, the lighter Star series are sized 400,500,600 etc. The heavier series ( the one you want ) are sized 440,540,640,740 etc. Centauro has always made saws sized similar to the Star

Re: FB510 Vibration
John, curious the vintage of your FB600, and it if was made by ACM, or is a Felder clone. As for the blade guide support post, I have seen a couple of iterations of the design that clamps that post in

Re: FB510 Vibration
Thanks for confirming what I thought, all the it¡¯s not a precise machine, lack of understanding that column needs to be parallel and plumb was confusing me, but to be fair it¡¯s easy for me to get

Re: FB510 Vibration
Actually the Bandsaw can be turned into an extremely precise machine which most of us doing resawing have achieved. I get less than .002" difference from top to bottom of a typical 8" to 12" resaw

Re: FB510 Vibration
So there is no way to adjust/shim the guide column? I thought I saw that it could be done on an mm20, of course different saw but I assumed it would be that way on any of the larger bandsaws. Glad I

Re: FB510 Vibration
I totally agree with James. Felder is not best of breed when it comes to bandsaws. Seek out an Italian alternative. Felder used to OEM the ACM, but no longer does so. The more you tighten this knob,

Re: FB510 Vibration
I don't own a bandsaw yet but seems like the wheel does not spin fast enough to cause a vibration. Is it in sync with the wheel speed? Anyway, a tire shop will have lead weights with a sticky back

Re: FB510 Vibration
If ACM is now the supplier of the MM saws, the Felder industrial line sourced from ACM is the same. I believe Laguna's larger saws are still ACM too although it takes some courage to deal with Laguna.

Re: FB510 Vibration
So you are saying that the Felder fb510 is not a precision machine and since that is the case the guide should not be parallel to the blade or be able to be adjusted parallel to the blade? Regards,
