Re: FAT300 vs Others
Hi Jonathan, I meant that your comparison is between carts of different features/specifications. You bring up a good point about where they are manufactured, which I was not thinking of. Anyhow FAT300

Re: FAT300 vs Others
How is that not a fair comparison? Here it is the other way around. :-) From this thread Vestil seems to originate from US mainland, Felder from EU. I am in the EU, (most of) you are in the US.

Re: FAT300 vs Others
Jonathan, That is an unfair comparison. In USA a FAT300 without any top is nearly twice as expensive as a Vestil cart with a top and more lifting capacity. I would assume they would be closer in price

Re: C3 31 Electrical problem
Progress! Have to confess I¡¯m always dubious about statements such as Apparently plus or minus 5% voltage or anything less than a 2.5mm extension cable and your capacitors are at risk of blowing.

Thanks Roger, Sorry, I was referring to the mains fuse board re. trip switches. Machine dead. Electrician has confirmed power is going to machine. Irish Felder agent diagnosed blown capacitor and

Re: FAT300 vs Others
Not sure on the US prize for a FAT300 but here in The Netherlands, even with VAT included with most expansive top and list price, a FAT 300 with the is still cheaper than the Vestil AIR-2000 w/o VAT.

Re: C3 31 Electrical problem
When you say ¡¯No power going to the machine¡¯. ¡­that doesn¡¯t fit with ¡°all the trip switches were in the correct position¡±. There is just one pair of start/run capacitors (one of each) and

Re: C3 31 Electrical problem
The crack came from the C3 31. At first I thought it was the mains fuse board ( as previously the board had been tripping a lot) but when I checked all the trip switches were in the correct position.

Re: C3 31 Electrical problem
Trevor When you say I heard a sharp crack and that was the power gone. The sharp crack came from the C3 31 ? ¡°Power gone¡±¡­do you mean that your circuit breaker tripped ? Or that the machine has

The saw DE is sorted, the A3 I want to put against a wall and pull out as needed and use an overhead boom to connect the DE to it. The Timken Taper bearings are a way better way to articulate it and

Re: C3 31 Electrical problem
Thanks Steve. Imran, I think that you are right on the money, as I was fairly sure that that blade wasn't stopping under breaking as before, but as it had been several month's since I last used the

Re: C3 31 Electrical problem
If it is a single phase machine you could have popped the start/run capacitor. I recently experienced it on my band saw and it made smoke instead of sound. Are you getting breaking function? Usually

Most likely a capacitor blew up. Steve

C3 31 Electrical problem
We moved home last September. My machine went into storage and the store got very damp over the winter. Enough to cover the tables with a light coating of red rust. I cleaned the tables and planned

Re: FAT300 vs Others
Bill, I had a similar experience. I wanted a MFT style table that was not a knock-down type. I had heard that one issue with MFT was that it was prone to get out of alignment due to its knock-down
