Alex noted that the drooping occurs when the arm is swung (I assume 90 degrees) out of the way.?

Guess I am confused, my guard droops pretty much Zero. What does the attachment to the saw look like on the ones that are drooping? Regards, Mark

Drooping...hrmmm, Felder precision doesn't apply here :).? Jokes aside, I think the Felder guard is way overbuilt - using steel in almost all the parts means a significant amount of weight being cantilevered so it's no surprise there's a drop, especially with the weak point being the mount. If I recall correctly, there's also an attachment to the vertical segment to the rightside sheet metal table.

Re: segmented pressure beam for AD 951?
Thanks for that. Interesting that the description in the parts diagram for #17 is “Smooth preassembled pressure beam”. But yet whenever I discuss that part with sales or service they refer to it as a “Pressure Shoe”. I know that sometimes occurs in our manuals for different countries where even though it is named one thing here is is discussed with a different name due to cultural and technical naming convention of that country.

Re: Latest in Woodworking
Hi Jarret,
I had two first cousins in Sharjah but now there is only one as his brother emigrated to Canada. I am surprised that there is a Felder dealership in Sharjah and can imagine low price used market due to lack of buyers. That AD951 is certainly a bargain at $3K. Would not surprise me if one of the princes has a full shop with literally gold plated cutter heads.
I was helping another relative with importing a shipping container of wood to Pakistan from USA and speaking with lumber dealers I learned that Ash is much liked there.
My parents house was built 42 yrs ago. After completion of the structure a father and son literally moved in and spent a month to do all the wood work. Not a single power tool.
For the last 30 yrs my annual pilgrimage back home was thru London since my sister lives there but few yrs back I started making ?3/4 trips each year so to keep the cost low I have been taking a more direct route thru Doha on Qatar Airways. It is the best airline I have flown. They literally follow each time a passenger exists the restroom to ensure it is clean, put a paper cover on the seat and Qtr the toilet paper end. This in economy. They also give you a care package in economy that I have only received in business class on other airlines.
Anyhow, you must be considering a long term stay to build a shop there. Keep us posted.

That is the only “sectional” type option available on the ad951. The alternative is what Felder calls a pressure shoe which is bent sheet steel.

I thought this is what we are discussing. OP should clarify if he meant something different.
Can someone post what the alternative looks like? I assume it is just a chip breaker.

Another option discussed here is the infeed roller with mixed feedback. The rubber coated one requires maintenance but the metal one may leave marks when taking light passes.
My Dual51 has segmented pressure bar, metal infeed roller and tersa head. I love tersa head, have no complains with metal infeed roller.

Re: Latest in Woodworking
Jonathan,
I actually enjoy photography very much. I would enjoy such a book very much. Maybe once my better half retires I could work on that during our travels.

Great photo, thanks for sharing!?
I would like to see a coffee table book of "woodworking machines from around?the world" now that you are retired it might be a good project?for you ?

I saw this yesterday in local market. They were edging sheets and I could
smell it from distance.
It was still there this morning so thought I share.
