Re: How to lift Tannewitz Bandsaw off pallet
Thanks Mac, it was not very difficult. I was able to strap it to my cantilever rack to stabilize and was done in less than an hour.

Cut the pallet up and remove were you want the Oak skids to go Attach and roll out.
Just need a reciprocating saw and ?BFH and pry bar just beet what you don’t want out trash it.
Than change the direction after you get it on flat floor in your shop.
For this stuff , IT is nice to have toe jacks , solid rollers , 5’ pry bars , machine trollies and on and on?

Joe, is there a threaded hole in the upper arm behind the wheel for an eyebolt?? The PH weighs 1800 lbs and supposedly the C frame is thick and reinforced.? Minimum height is listed at 6'9" so
you must be close ( 7' doors should be outlawed ).? Dave
The challenge I’m seeing is there is not places I can see to attach straps to.? If I remove the top wheel
and brake stuff I could lift from the top of the arm but I’m not sure that’s strong enough.? I’d really like to work on the machine in the shop and not on the driveway in the sun.? The seller (LA School District) obviously lifted it onto a pallet so there
must be a way to lift it off the pallet.? Maybe their lift was sketchy and most certainly was done with a forklift.? There is a ring on the motor and I’m told that giant 875 RPM 5HP motor weights 350 lbs.? I can’t see lifting the machine from that ring as
it’s too low and the machine would rotate.

Hi all, I am back from picking up the Tannewitz I bought on auction.? I'm disappointed that it was a PH 30" and not a 36" but that's a risk I took with the sketchy listing.? At $775 with only one
small broken part I think I did ok.? It's in a the bed of a drop deck trailer out front of my shop. The pallet its strapped to is 6" high making it a couple inches too tall to roll into the shop.? I want to lift it off the pallet and place the permanent oak

Re: Ten woodworking tools you have to see

Adapting the inexpensive Chinese Milling Machine 3-axis DRO Kit to the Multi-Router may be practical.? I did a quick search, but did not get? a hit; anyone have opinions, information, ideas, etc.??

10-12 years ago I was modernizing my kitchen.? I had a pot of hide glue heated up to repair some delaminated? cabinet doors.? I somehow managed to knock the pot off the saw bench onto the floor.? There wasn’t much glue left, maybe half a cup at most.? The linoleum was old and due for replacement so I left it to cool, thinking it’d be easier to scrape up in a few minutes, but when I came back the floor was clean as a whistle.? The only clue I had was my old Australian Shepard sitting next to the door with a guilty expression.? She must have lived another 5 years after that so I suspect you’ll be okay.

I teach a class on making Shaker oval boxes every summer on a picnic table in the woods. It became the solution for fitting tops and bottoms very accurately, and quite quickly if you did a decent job cutting out with the coping saw. Mine is a converted Wards Master hand cranked grinder. I replaced the sharpening wheel with a plywood disc where the sandpaper is applied. I built a table fixture around it dedicated to the 3 degree bevel that we use on the parts. The grinder is geared so that you can crank a little and let it coast if you are just fine tuning. Everyone who's used it loves the thing. If only I could find a solution for dust collection!
I've been using the JDS Multirouter for nearly 25 years. One thing it can do that the Pantorouter can't is be a very fast production machine. When equipped with the pneumatic clamps, you can process chair parts at an alarming rate once you've got a setup. You couldn't do it any faster without spending exponentially more money on a twin table 5 axis CNC. I don't have any experience with a tenoner to know if that's a solution, but those are huge, single purpose machines not many of us have the space for. I mill brass and aluminum on the JDS.? Using a shop made jig which is essentially a vertical table, I can machine very small delicate parts like pickup rings for the guitars I build. I love that they use Thomson linear rails and bearings. The thing stays accurate year after year without any slop. I've never had a DRO on mine and I get by fine, but I'm sure I'd never go back if I installed it. It would be a slippery slope to have to add those all over the shop. Maybe as my eyes get worse...
I've thought of multiple improvements that could be made over the years, but they fall on deaf ears over at JDS. Now that they've been sold maybe things will change? I wouldn't be without one in the shop, or two or three. Down to just two now.

Re: Freeborn cope and pattern center groover option
Freeborn used to make a 5.5mm cutter for undersized ply.? Whatever you choose, consider the 5/8 recess.? It gives extra glue area and stabilizes the cope and stick and leaves enough room for 1/4" od tubing to center the panel and snug it with still giving room

Hello all,
I want to buy a set of Freeborn Cope and Pattern cutters for a cabinet project.? Freeborn gives you the option of choosing the center groover's width and depth of cut.? The standard is 1/4" x 3/8".? I routine purchase 1/4-inch plywood, but none of it ever is
truly 1/4-inch in thickness.? The thickness varies from batch to batch, so I always adjust my groove cutter or dado set to match the material.? For this Freeborn set, I want to ask which center groover option people recommend? Also, beside Whitehill in the
UK, where else are top-hat bushings available for purchase to adapt the Freeborn cutters from 1 1/4 inch bore to a 30mm spindle on a KF700SP?? The archive mentions Paul Jordan's company, but I can't find it using the common search engines.??
I am looking at PC-10-060, PC-10-050, or PC-10-070.??
