Is anybody interested in a Starrett 682EMZ Saw Tension Gage?

I am selling mine for $300.00 plus shipping.

Before I bought the Profile with x-motion I used a height gage and two Digital indicators to set up the shaper fence and make adjustments.

The height gage is easy to understand. I tried a 6” Starret and was no better than the Igaging height gage. ?Both of this heigh gages had fluttery readouts making a confident reading difficult. ?The height gage in the photo uses a mitutoyo read out that is nice and steady.

I use the one of indicator mounted on a 123 block to measure the depth of cut in a test piece and the second indicator mounted on a magnetic stand to make a relative adjustment of the fence depth by indicating to the rear of the hood and measuring the movement forward or back.

Hammer B3 electrical problem #hammer

 

Hello all? - first off I completely understand if nobody has the time to look over this one and probably requires a fairly indepth knowledge of how the Hammer combination machines electrics are setup.
--
So, my Hammer B3 (single phase, 2005, teal paint) has become poorly. Working fine up until Saturday (with one minor quirk regarding braking). It?currently trips the breaker instantaneously upon starting the machine. Likely significant that this occurs in any mode switch position (on the B3 that is shaper or table saw). The first time trying to restart it there was a very short buzz (~0.5s) from the motor and the breaker went, all subsequent starts there have been no buzzes, no clicks, instant trip.

Initial thought was the table saw motor windings had worn past a critical point due to a stall the day before (which did at the time throw the thermal switch on the machine itself), but I have since tried the machine in shaper mode (which of course should swap the circuit over to the other motor) but shows the same issue. Instant trip.

I've investigated both start and run capacitors for faults but both appear to be as they should be (capacitance reading is bang on, not shorted etc.), unsure if there is more to testing a capacitor however.

There's another recent discussion on here about a C3-31 with electrical problems related to the brake (and resolved by replacing the brake module) but can't quite match the symptoms, notably mine appears to trip instantly.

Is there any potential for the brake to somehow be engaged during startup? A sticky relay etc? May be rather specific knowledge but, would anyone be able to describe a procedure for safely eliminating the brake as a factor?

As it is, not sure where to start with diagnosis as the above would seem to imply the issue is not with the motor or (shared) capacitors.

The quirk with braking mentioned above that may indicate something to someone with more knowledge than me, is that it would: 50% of the time work fine, 25% of the time it would engage for a shorter period than necessary, 25% of the time it wouldn't engage at all and spin freely.

Any further information or photos anyone may need I'm sure I can provide.


Re: The Annex workshop addition

I have a big Joe electric pallet jack that I bought for about $1600 used but like new.? You want the type that takes off the shelf batteries.? They will cost $200 each when worn out but at least you don't have to find proprietary ones.? Mine is the narrow fork size and I prefer that for most machines.? Metal working machines tend to have narrow bases compared to woodworking machines.? I also have a couple of regular jacks but find anything over 2500 lbs is getting tough on my back.? My old Hyster cost me $1500 and surprisingly still lifts 7000 lbs and keeps going.? Nothing cheap about repairing them though as there is no way to easily move a dead 14000 lb machine.?

My arsenal of moving stuff includes narrow and wide pallet jacks, an electric fork but manual push type jack that lifts 3' high with a 3000 lb capacity, the Big Joe electric jack that raises the typical 6" but is powered, a small gas forklift that will lift 2500 lbs that I can transport on the trailer, an overhead on wheels with a chain hoist, an electric scissor table with rotary top,? and the big old Hyster.? I find I use them all.? Dave

Hey gang...I’m new to the forum, but thought I’d share my ZCI’s. As you all know, most sliding table saws have much to be desired when it comes to the saw blade insert.

There is simply too much space around the blade, or even with other zero clearance inserts, once the blade plunges through it, there is only a small amount of insert material remaining to the left of the blade. Weak!?

Mine are superb!?

These quality ZCI’s will minimize tear out, eliminate small off-cuts from getting wedged, and make cutting on your Hammer K-3 so much safer!??Made of Baltic Birch and covered on both sides with high pressure laminate (Formica) that is adhered with epoxy (rather than contact cement)...this creates a smooth, strong and very rigid insert.


I’ve shipped over 70 of these with hugely positive feedback. So far these fit:?


Hammer K-3

Felder CF-531

Hammer C3 31

Felder K500P and K500S (please check! The length of mine are 22 13/16” or 579 mm)?


The first link/video (scroll down to see video) shows the inserts in action...the second link is a vid that shows an easy and safe way to elongate the saw kerf to accommodate the riving knife. ?And how I cut the slot for the scoring blade. ?Thanks a ton, Ramon

Skip, good to get confirmation-was concerned my memory was starting to fail me... that sucker looks like it sticks out quite a bit - don’t bother measuring but whats your guess, 12”- 18”?

Dave –

?

It came pre-drilled because I ordered it that way.? The Felder Catalog/Book shows a “Power feeder mount” for an AD/A 951, Format-4/dual 51 (Part No. 430-112) under Power feeders accessories (page 465 in my book).? From the picture, it is a different mounting bracket than mine, and I do not know what my part number is.? Mine appears to be shaped similar to the Hammer tilt away device (Part No 501-127) (same page in the book), but that clearly is not it.?

?

I ordered mine through Jesse at Felder Delaware, and he knew what to spec for the machine.? It is definitely heavy/sturdy!?

Did you have to drill the mounting holes in your AD941 or did it come with them predrilled?? Thanks for the pictures.

Here’s pics of my Felder Power Feeder bracket and how it mounts on my AD 941.? You can see that you have to remove both Left and Right access panels.? Only the Right panel is removed for bolt access in the photos.?

?

Apologies for the mis-orientation of the pics – sometimes they show up that way, and sometimes they appear correctly.? ?I sent them from my i phone.? ?Even when pics are rotated wrongly on my screen, they appear right-side up (sometimes) on a recipient’s screen.? ?So, I can’t say what you might see.?? What’s even weirder, yesterday I tried twice to send a picture to this computer and to another.? The same picture rotated 90 degrees on this one and appeared correctly on the other.? A companion picture showed up correctly oriented on this one.? Maybe it is operator error, but the results seem to be random even when I do the process exactly the same way.?

?

Anyway, ‘hope this helps!?? B/T/W – The mounting system for those access panels is really squirrely IMHO!?

Re: Aigner Distometer up alternative?

Before I bought the Profile with x-motion I used a height gage and two Digital indicators to set up the shaper fence and make adjustments.

The height gage is easy to understand. I tried a 6” Starret and was no better than the Igaging height gage. ?Both of this heigh gages had fluttery readouts making a confident reading difficult. ?The height gage in the photo uses a mitutoyo read out that is nice and steady.

I use the one of indicator mounted on a 123 block to measure the depth of cut in a test piece and the second indicator mounted on a magnetic stand to make a relative adjustment of the fence depth by indicating to the rear of the hood and measuring the movement forward or back.
