Re: Felder High Speed Router Spindle 424-111
This spindle works at 15,000 rpm, so for smaller- diameter router bits the cutting edge speed is kind of low. For larger bits and deeper cuts, it works great, having many HP behind it, and is as close to totally?vibration- free as you are going to get. Changing spindles is not difficult, but changing back and forth is a pain, so my cast- iron router table is my go- to for that sort of work unless I feel I really need what the Felder spindle brings. Cheers Eric

Re: Fine Adjustment for Rip Fence on Hammer B3
I am sorry if I am the cause of your discomfort, Mark :)
Curious minds would like to know what it is that upsets you so?
For reference, the Wixey in question is attached with a rare earth magnet, and this offers a secure fitting. The Wixey was a refugee from a previous tablesaw, so it was "free". This has been a useful addition, bearing in mind that the slider is now used more than the rip fence. The Fiama looks nice and would be neater, but perhaps for another time.
I liked the precision and ability to return to settings, and added a similar set up to a Hammer N4400 bandsaw. Useful, for example, when re-sawing and for joinery, such as tenon cheeks.
Regards from Perth

Re: Machinery Choice and Workshop Layout
how it is setup now, I cant pull it all the way back but it will allow me to cut 8x4 sheet. 3200 will be fine, I got this 3800mm slider cos it was a factory shutdown auction. otherwise I would have settled for something no bigger than 2500mm. I dont need the lengths beyond 2500mm.
You could place the bandsaw like how I placed mine, nicely tucked in the dead zone behind the panel saw.?
not to mention my extractor takes out a fairly big chunk of space in the workshop!?

Re: Easy-Lock & Quick-Lock
Wowzers, they are really over thinking it. Appears Felder engineers have too much time on their hands.

Actually, weirdly, there are only 2 holes pre drilled on the inboard side - one on each “leg” for seems about a 3/8” hole. One “leg” is shorter than all the others and had one leveler installed.

I’m surprised you can get 1/2” studs into the holes on the bottom of the machine chassis. ?Every Felder machine I have or have seen has 11mm holes, which is too small for a 1/2” stud.

Yes, used a 2” pad version of the below from mcmaster, seemed fine on the k700 and one corner is like 1.5” - 2” in the air. Doesn’t seem enough on the k940 so i am installing 4” with 1/2” stud and extra thick oversized washers only because the ones u get at the big box are junk... using the grade 8 jam nut because one corner needs to be as close to the floor as I can get, should be ok.

? Thanks Mark, your photo explains it well. Question did you use leveling feet on your K700S? The layout drawing shows them, looks like 8 of them. Unfortunately my floor is not very level where my saw goes and I have had to shim/use levelers with all of my past saws in my shop. After 20+ yrs I am thinking about hiring a company to grind the floor to level out the high spots and put on a nice epoxy coating before the arrival of my new K700S 20 weeks from now.? Pat Rice

Agreed that there is no heat issue.? There's a pull out tray, air space, then insulation.?
Joe, I don't have a lot of the Bolivian rosewood,? but using it for details where it's tight grain is highlighted helps conserve it.
Those Viking range tops are designed to be installed into residential cabinetry.?
Won’t be an issue in that cart.?
Have no idea on your hot plate.? All appliances have an accompanying data sheet that will spec its limitations.?
D ?Nice!? Question...do you worry about the heat from the range affecting the wood cabinet's top?? Is there a layer of insulation between the range and the wood top?? Or is the heat not a problem?? I have a commercial hot plate that in need of something similar to your cabinet, but have not looked into the heat problem (if there is one).??

Looks great! ?Our indoor kitchen runs on Propane in Bend and it works great! ?I did not have to build any supporting devices though. ?
Will you ever run out of bolivian rosewood? ?
