Making the most of square overhead dust arms
#diy
#dustguard
#dustcollection
Sharing a potential storage location for the Felder parallel guide arm. I stumbled on the idea when changing out the factory dust guard bolts with stainless ones at first wanting to use the tube as the dust hose however the hinge restricts the end eliminating that option. Turns out there is plenty of depth to hold the parallel guide arm and the locking block protrudes less than the existing dust arm housing, i.e. no lost clearance. The inserts are press fit and created a nice opportunity for a "vanity" plate. The first chamfered square version had an incorrect outer radius not matching the tube while the second radiused version is nearly perfect and served as modeling practice. The parts are directly off the printer with no sanding or vapor smoothing, etc. The texture seen is from the textured heated plate it is printed on face down.
Open for suggestions on how to further utilize this existing overhead arm such as a bracket or formed sheetmetal part holding the dust hose, an extra rip fence, the miter fence, another aftermarket parallel guide such as the Lamb tool works version (unsure if his machined end fits inside the arm)?? With the proliferation of low cost, accurate printers shall we start a .stl or 3D Print file category for sharing these types of things?? -- Mike B |

Re: zci for k940
Very well done Mark. I have a message in to Felder regarding purchasing the LED module as an upgrade for a non auto rise model and am curious what the control interface is like. Any insights from your schematics?
With a new set of inserts, the gap between the plastic and the slider is over 11mm in the blade area and 1.3mm away at the full with sections. Following is a problem that would have been prevented with a ZCI and why I too will be creating or purchasing one. Last year when trimming the end of a mitered euro ply shelf the triangle offcut found its way through the gap hitting the chip deflector bending it into the scoring blade taking off a tooth in the process..... It was a new scoring blade. Another upgrade might be replacing the deflector with 1/8"+ AL plate to replace the thin stock part?? -- Mike B |

Low Cost DRO for Hammer C31 Table Saw Fence setup SUCCESS!!
#hammer
For anyone that in interested, I took a leap of design faith and purchased a Wixey Saw Fence Digital Readout to have a lower cost DRO on the table side of my Hammer C31.
Happy to share with limited medications to the kit from Wixey and 4-5 holes in the bottom of the fence rail on the Hammer you have a great DRO setup. See attached images.? The Magnet on the Wixey is positioned close enough to worm without any modifications to the fence. https://www.rockler.com/wixey-saw-fence-digital-readout |

Re: A3-31 Specs
开云体育Does hammer jointer outfeed tables have the same issues as some felder’s where they won’t go down fully until forced? Imran On Jan 21, 2021, at 7:08 PM, David Kumm <davekumm@...> wrote:

When you say TDC of Cutters you are referring to the TDC of the cutting edge of the insert itself, correct??? Dave

I have the outfeed table with both corners same height. Still seems high. I would expect the outfeed table ?to be level with TDC of the cutters, but it’s higher.?

? Greg, From what I gather, for each motor circuit, there is a connector between the selector switch and the motor. This is where you plugged shaper motor into table saw cable from selector switch and it did not work. Similarly, tablesaw motor plugged into the shaper cable from selector switch worked. To me this shows that the issue is between the selector switch and the cable connector on the table saw circuit. Check the connector to ensure pins are not bent and shorted (I do not know if this is possible as I do not know what the inside of this connector looks like). Check each wire from this connector, all the way to the selector switch to make sure wire insulation is not compromised resulting in a short between wires or between a wire and machine chassis. I am assuming there is nothing but wire between selector switch and this connector. If there is another component (relay, etc) then that needs to be checked out.

What is the connector? I took the wires off the stop switches for my table saw (the factory installed switch and one I installed to operate the saw from the sliding table).? With the wires dangling, as expected, the entire machine would not operate.? It was as if the a stop button was N/O.? I then tied the wires together, avoiding the switches, and, just as expected, the same malfunction occurred.? I did notice, however, that the K-2 relay closed.? But K-1, which is downstream and latches to send the 3 phases to the motors, did not close, so no action on that motor. Will the strangeness ever cease. Tomorrow, time permitting, I'm going to review every wire that I diagrammed to see where the "as is" diverges from the Felder wiring diagram. Thanks again, Imran! |
