Re: any one know this roofing?
Cliff, I was born and raised in Norfolk UK (emigrated because of the 690 days of rain per year) and yes there are some beautiful thatched rooves there (rooves being the traditional spelling but now commonly spelt roofs).....did you notice the windows in your attached photo? they were stone frames with lead sashes...

Here's another example from near near me in Sussex. It's a restaurant called the Ginger Fox. Hence the additions to the roof thatch.

one more thing
When hand tapping? using a cutting tap or die ( as opposed to a
forming tap or die) Drive the tap in? about half a turn ( or so)?
and then back it out? a half turn (or so).? You will figure this
out? the forst time you do it.? What is happening is? you need to
"Break the Chip" that was forming as the tap or die cut into the
material.?
Backing it off like that? will? do a few things (1)? Replenish
the lube at the cutting? edges, (2) snap that off and make things
progress easier, (3)? it makes it way more possible? to extract a
broken tap and? (4) way less likely? that you will snap a tap.?

i used the 1/2-13 tap first time today and it broke mid way
in 1/2” CR1018 steel bar. yes, i did drill 27/64” hole with the
drill that came with the tap. just curious, folks with metal
knowhow, can you tell if this break shows a manufacturing

i
am sure they will send me a replacement tap but i am just

not sure of the quality any more.

I try to stay larger than 1/4" when hand tapping and use a Procunier or tapmatic whenever possible.? Hand tapping is turn about 1/4-1/2 turn and back off.? If you are tapping #4-40, buy a million taps and be ready to be frustrated.? I have a lot of English
machines and my Whitworth sets have three taps per size.? Start with the undersized one and move up as needed.? Downside is they are made in India and I've never found much in precision in tooling from there.? Dave

Re: Sliding Table Saw Felder K700 S - Minnesota

Pretty sure that was just a saw, not a saw/shaper. In that vintage with obvious signs of tons of use/abuse, I’d say more like $3000-$4000. Look around on Craig’s List, Offerup and Facebook Marketplace, locally I have a lot to choose from:
for $10,500 asking
for $7500
for $3600
and there was an Altendorf F45, but it looks like it must have sold, think it was under $7k, might have been $5k.
Don't these usually list for close to $15k new? Even though this certainly isnt "mint condition" it might be a good deal.?

I need to change the headline when I sold something online, like "better condition than new" :)
This looks like a crappy condition at a very high price to me.
