Re: RL125 Extractor
Thanks for the replies lads, will take a look later. Guessed it was probably something I had done wrong. Thanks again.

Re: Euro Guard on K700 #sawsetup
Below is a picture of my home-made overhead guard. I was mainly motivated by dust extraction, I recently upgraded to an AF 160 and with the main dust hose attached to the saw it has heaps of extra

Re: FB510 Vibration
I have a Hammer N4400 that I purchased a long time ago. When I started for the first time it had a nasty vibration, a coin balanced on it would immediately dance and fall over within a couple of

Re: FB510 Vibration
I totally agree with James. Felder is not best of breed when it comes to bandsaws. Seek out an Italian alternative. Felder used to OEM the ACM, but no longer does so. The more you tighten this knob,

Re: FB510 Vibration
I don't own a bandsaw yet but seems like the wheel does not spin fast enough to cause a vibration. Is it in sync with the wheel speed? Anyway, a tire shop will have lead weights with a sticky back

Re: FB510 Vibration
If ACM is now the supplier of the MM saws, the Felder industrial line sourced from ACM is the same. I believe Laguna's larger saws are still ACM too although it takes some courage to deal with Laguna.

Re: FB510 Vibration
I just do not see how to adjust the parallelism of the post on FB510 which is really a simple machine, nothing fancy. It does cut straight when the blade is properly installed, and the blade makes

Re: FB510 Vibration
So you are saying that the Felder fb510 is not a precision machine and since that is the case the guide should not be parallel to the blade or be able to be adjusted parallel to the blade? Regards,

Re: FB510 Vibration
Bill, Since FB510 does not meet your expectations, sell it and buy a different brand maybe MiniMax / SCM. You have Kappa slider, I think you should pair your Kappa with a better bandsaw :) James

Re: FB510 Vibration
Bill, I would put the saw on a solid base or even put it on a couple of 2 x 4¡¯s for testing. ?During my testing, motor ran smooth by itself, and with belt on and lower wheel spinning. ? It even

Re: FB510 Vibration
I agree James, it¡¯s just that I really like the bandsaw and this one is not performing. I¡¯m hoping that it¡¯s just me that can not fine tune this machine.

Re: FB510 Vibration
Thanks James. ? Maybe this brings peace of mind for me. ? I know that it is not a precision machine, but this should not be happening. ?The Felder tech was puzzled as well. Have a great evening,

Re: FB510 Vibration
Bill, if the wheel stopped at 12 a few times, I doubt the wheel is the main cause. I don't think a magnet will stay in place when under power and that could wreck your blade if it is thrown off. Can

Re: FB510 Vibration
Jay, I will try it and let you know tomorrow. James

Re: FB510 Vibration
At least, I do not know. IMO, the bandsaw is not really a precision machine, James

Re: FB510 Vibration
James, That is the knob that I am talking about and it does move the guide to the side. ? I snug that knob down and adjust the guides accordingly. ? If i go to tight, then it vibrates as shown in

Re: FB510 Vibration
Is there not a way to adjust the parallelism of the post? Regards, Mark

Re: FB510 Vibration
I have to say the post is not 100% parallel in the whole range. Tightening the knob definitely tilts the steel post slightly. James

K500 blade height adjustment with Felder Dial indicator for system handwheels
I do have this dial indicator for an A31 and find it useful and wonder if it really works on a K500 for the blade height. Let me explain: The OEM handwheels for a K500 blade height is not fixed to the
