At first blush, it looks like a handsome little router, and I'm sure I'd find plenty of uses for it, particularly on-site mortising work for locks and strikes. Like their previous smaller format plunge router, it's in the same weight/power/size class as the Festool OF-1010.
No word on whether or not this will be released in 120V or not.....?

Wow, this Mafell router packs so many nice features that Festool OF-1010 does not have.
If I did not have the OF-1010 and LR32 system, I would probably buy this Mafell router with LO-FA parallel fence and F80-LR rail.

Innovative.? Thanks for sharing.? I¡¯ll file it away in the back of mind in case I burn something out and need to shop routers again.
I¡¯ve become a Mafell fan and have several tools, a couple that replaced (and improved) existing (jigsaw and plunge saw) and a couple that were just net new functionality (portable bandsaw and a grooving saw).? I¡¯ve got my eye on their 85mm saw to replace my monster 16¡± beam saw (which is a frightening, unwieldy beast). ?

Hi Todd,?
Is this still available? I'm in Wisconsin. Also, have you sold your Mac clamps already? I figured you must have, the post was six months ago.
Thanks,

Re: A3-31 setup and calibration

In late 1800¡¯s sq heads on jointer were outlawed. New round head projections are only 1 or 2 mm so if your hand hits it bounces off . Same with open winged shaper cutters I would avoid. Have same flaw as aw heads.?
When very young I had a few planers and stickers and tennoners with square heads.
Worked ok one has to be particular with torque on the keeper bolts or trouble flies.
for complicated set ups on stickers these slotted knives give added flexibility in meeting design .
Personally for me it it¡¯s not straight and sq it doesn¡¯t work in my tastes.
Done ?all the old fashion gobley gook stuff for others and don¡¯t have to do that any more to make a buck.
Know just have to avoid hot SS chips and 6061 razor blades.

K 975 Professional Saw For Sale $7500
I'm preparing to sell my K975 saw, which will be available in July hopefully when my new saw should be here. I'm located in Aromas, northern California, about 1.5 south of San Francisco. The saw is 3 phase?( converter not included) and I bought it new in 2004. I have a small single-man professional workshop. The saw is showing cosmetic?wear but has performed flawlessly.
It has a 2800mm sliding table, and tiger fences on both the rip and crosscut fences.
Electric on/off on the end of the slider.
Power raise on the main and scoring unit, manual adjustment on the blade tilt.
Please ask any questions you might have.

Hi Todd
I am very interested in the dado set.? However, I am in Australia. So logistically payment and shipping Ali Well be a bit more challenging.
Warm regards

Hello,
I sold my K700s a little while back and the buyer had no interest in these. They were lightly used in a hobbyist shop, and the carbide has never been rotated. 800$ shipped anywhere in the continental US.
Happy to answer any questions or send more photos.?
Thanks for looking,

Re: A3-31 setup and calibration
MAN/Manual (hand fed) vs MEC/Mechanical (power fed) is used to indicate whether it is safe to use one or the other. In this case its related to the projection of the jointer knives. Here's a brief explanation from Rod on SMC on how it applies to shaper cutters but it applies here as well.?

Re: A3-31 setup and calibration
I¡¯m curious - what is MAN rating?

Hi Richard, as I indicated it's to provide proper support to the knives and maintain the MAN rating of the head.........Regards, Rod.

Re: Update on Martin T32 Jointer/Planer
PK I had similar experience with my SCM S7, If I setup the speed and infeed/outfeed pneumatic pressure correctly, there will be no marks even at 0.1mm, also, if I feed the stock against the grain, there wont be tear out. its magical.?

Re: A3-31 setup and calibration
Thanks. The document is perfectly matched to my almost 20 year old a3-31 and I'm glad to have it because of the detail it provides.
I was just curious about why it is so specific about the cutterhead to outfeed height difference since I haven't seen that level of specificity in other jointers I've worked with (I am admittedly working with a very small sample size). Especially since setting the knife height is a separate step. Brian's answer about potentially making the blades weaker/prone to chatter made sense to me. ?

Re: Update on Martin T32 Jointer/Planer
They had the Hofmann J/P and two shapers at IWF in 2020.? Utterly beautiful!? (not cheap!) They had signed up too late for a booth on the main machinery floor, so were located more obscurely amongst the cabinet/finishing area.? ?

On the TP300, which should be extremely similar to the T32, it is only when the planer table is lowered to over 5.5 inches or so that the part as shown in the yellow area of the attached photo will not hit the planer table as you lower the flip up jointer tables. ?A nice feature for sure to be able to not have to lower the planer table to use it as a jointer.
As for high end JPs....?
.... the most interesting to me is the Hofmann (see links). ?I do not believe it is UL listed and I do not think one has never been sold in the United States (I could be mistaken). ?I have never seen one. ?However, interesting that it seems you can go from jointer to planer without raising the table.

Re: Felder ¡°Technical Support¡± is a bad joke
Gerry, I've forwarded your post to a contact at Felder USA, hopefully you receive a call or email from them........Regards, Rod.
P.S. With so many people at Ligna it may take a few days for a response.

Re: A3-31 setup and calibration
Hi, that's a document that's almost 20 years old. If you're trying to setup a machine with the cartridge knife system (what this document is intended for) then it needs to be set correctly to that specification.
This ensures that the knife carriers are in the correct location in the cutterhead, with proper support for the knives. (The head is MAN rated if adjusted properly)
Once you have the cutterhead to outfeed table height set correctly, you then adjust the knife carriers for the correct knife projection above the outfeed table.
If you're doing a Silent Power spiral head adjustment you set the cutters 0.01 to 0.04mm above the outfeed table at hinge and operators side.
Regards, Rod.
Regards, Rod.

Yes Joe,
Rudy is his name.? He told me recently about moving a huge piece of lead that was part of a sailboat keel.? Sounded like quite an adventure!
Marlowe?
Marlowe,
I learned a lot from your unpacking of the Panhans.? Mac¡¯s crating was excellent and the way he used lumber to secure the pieces parts in the crate was revelatory for me. ?
Your rigging friend made moving that heavy jointer off the pallet easy.? I had a hard time believing how easily he could safely move the machine with simple tools and lots of experience.? Was his name Rudy?
Joe
? BTW, I? bought the Panhans from Mac.? One of my best machinery purchases, and certainly the best freight prep ever...

I found the M42 Tersa knives to be disappointing as well.? I bought carbide to replace them.
I could not part with my marvelous Panhans jointer but an stuck with straight knives there.? I mostly run carbide knives there, but even those knick even though I strive to remove as much debris as possible.?
I would welcome a Tersa head there, but don't know if custom heads are available even if I could stomach the down time of a measurement/reinstall and wait for completion.?

So, I'm hearing that the Minimax FS41ES and FS52ES have the excellent parallelogram jointer design.?? How do the lower end FS41E / FS41C range compare?? Does anyone know?
