John,
When do you use WBS as a planer? With DRO on wood planer I can get what I want. Just curious? I guess could be a material you do not want to run on planer, dirty wood?

I have the Northstate 16¡± WB sander. Even though manual says 16¡± belt I received it with 17¡± wide belts and I do not see anything wrong with the width. This is a freebie question, please let me know if you have any suggestions? Okay, so this WBS is new to me and I received it with 80, 120 & 150 belts. 120 & 150 seem close. Planning to order 60, 120 & 220. Sound good? I also just bought rigid oscillating sander Came with 80 grit on belt and drums. Klingspor has a set of 60, 100 & 150. Do I need any higher grits? On belt I am ordering 40, 80, 150 & 220. Sounds good? As far as materials go, solid soft & hard woods, ply and occasional metals on the rigid. Thanks, Imran

It seems most comments are in the no-go column but assume most are seasoned woodworkers and non-work related.? My company rented exhibit space in Hall A.? Finale 25% payment is due June 5, it was extended from May 5 when no decision was made to have the show.? I expect attendance to be way down.? International will probably be the largest missing part. We will have to decide next week whether to cut losses or go and hope for a few good prospects.
BTW, there is no comparison between IWF and Las Vegas in overall size.? They both have the smaller shop equipment but IWF has the big automated industrial system suppliers like Weinig, Stiles, Dieffenbacher, Atlas Copco, Akzo Noble, Grass Blume, and several? hardwood and board suppliers.? Whole systems are set up and running.? A bigger wow factor.
If you are waiting for a vaccine, it could be a long one.

Re: What sandpaper grits to order?
I don't go above 120 on the little Rigid but use it mainly to shape sand.? On the widebelts I don't go higher than 180.? The oscillation and platen give a little better finish than the grit would suggest and 180 turns into 220 after a few passes so that is
as far as I go.? If I want a higher polish type sand I use the ROS.? 150 or 180 off the planer is what I use most often.? With high grits you need to be very exact in setting the depth as you can only err a few thou before screwing up the paper.? Dave

Re: OT: Spray Gun Packing Material
I have.? If you start clicking on the different guns, you'll find
that most of the gasket kits are "no longer available."? It
appears that parts that you break or lose (triggers, bowls, etc.)
-- i.e. parts you don't need often -- are still available, but
simple maintenance parts are not.? I looked at all of their
current designs, guessing that this part might be interchangeable
and tried to find the maintenance kits.? It wasn't available for
any of them.? Which basically tells me:? never by another tool
made by Campbell Hausfeld unless you assume it to be disposable.
That said, it appears some of the fluid control kits are
available, which do include the packing material -- along with a
bunch of metal parts I don't need.? I think I'm going to start by
cutting some felt and seeing it that works better than the o ring
I'm using.

Re: OT: Spray Gun Packing Material
Agreed - I have guns with either teflon or HDPE/uhmw packing, but it seems strange the part can't still be ordered more easily than "making something work".

Re: OT: Spray Gun Packing Material
Every manufacturer seems to make a different packing nut for their needle. Without seeing the part its hard to help but a piece of heavy?felt or piece of thick leather might help. Just pierce the material and let the needle do the sizing. My guns use teflon seals that are only cleanable, when worn have to be replaced.

The packing material around the needle has deteriorated.? I've

Does spray gun packing come in standards sizes?? Alternatively, can you

Dave, I will consider IWF (or any other large gathering) when something definitive changes on the medical side, like: - an effective treatment for Covid-19
- a vaccine to provide immunity to Covid-19
- herd immunity across the USA
None of those conditions exist today, or are likely to by IWF.
I'm curious what everybody's thoughts are about attending IWF this year?? I just received an email saying it's still a go and 91 days away.? SWMBO isn't overly excited about the prospect so I may be out.

On the IWF Website, in their "COVID Preparedness" section, they have a link to "Safety Policies and Procedures" at the Georgia World Congress Center venue, and at the top of that page it says:
"In light of the current COVID-19 situation, and in partnership with Governor Kemp, Georgia World Congress Center Authority is converting an exhibit hall within Building A of the convention center into a 200-bed alternate care facility in anticipation of treatment of COVID-19 patients with mild to moderate (non-ICU) illness levels excluding ventilator support. "
Very reassuring to IWF attendees no doubt. If you come down with COVID19, just walk over to?Building A?and get a bed ;-)
