OMG, what does the Moore weigh? Would win the vibration damping contest for certain!

That has been out for awhile, there is a gearhead version I just recently saw that seems to be new.?
Anyways we have the 2820 in the R&D lab that I work in, it¡¯s ok but the variable speed switch went bad within the first couple months (which they replaced promptly, i was impressed with the service) and had terrible runout, I replaced the chuck with like
a $500 one that we had in our tool crib and it has minimal run out now so I am assuming it was the original chuck, haven¡¯t have any issues since then but we don¡¯t use it a lot and most of the drilling is around 1/4¡± in steel and aluminum.

If I wanted a new dedicated drill press, I would buy an Ellis. ?Great quality products from a family owned business. ??

Hey all - So I've had my RL 200 for going on 7 years, and finally need to replace the filters. As expected at $666 USD each (x2 in the RL200), the filters cost significantly more than many stand alone dust collectors.?
Has anyone here had any luck finding an aftermarket filter for their RL's?
Thanks in advance

Re: Felder g330 edgebander
We use to handle that two different ways.
A) leave your board tall...cut only to width of drawer fronts. Band two sides...then slice that into drawers fronts. Edge top and bottom of each.
Or 2)
We would run a ¡°chaser¡± piece held tight to the narrow drawer front but held back from the edge banding and cutters. The chaser helps hold the narrow drawer fronts from shifting.
Hope that makes sense, Ramon

Re: Felder Adjustable Rebate Cutterhead
Sorry guys if I caused the confusion.? I see what Felder does.? The part number was changed (from 04.0.160 to 04.1.160), but the cutter's name stays the same, "Adjustable High Performance Rebate Head, 4 drawing cutting, RB-HW."? I searched the archive using the new part number, resulting in this old thread coming up.
It appears the new cutter set does not have locating pins.??
So, 04.0.160 as of 2015 had the locating pins.??
The current set, 04.1.160 (2020), does not have the locating pins.??
Again, sorry for the confusion.

I think this thread was originally about 04.0.160. I cannot find this cutter at the Felder shop. Maybe it's an older model? Edit: I bought my cutter in October this year. I had trouble finding anyone with the item in stock. The one I found was a former Felder dealer and he found this laying around, so I'm pretty sure my sample is not from 2020.

Re: Felder Adjustable Rebate Cutterhead
Michael, thank you for the information and link.

Reading through the thread again, I am confused.? David's post indicates part 04.1.160 to have locating pins that need to be shimmed with spacers with correctly drilled holes that cover the pins.? Gary's post indicates the same thing.? Felder recommended to Gary to remove the pins for cutting tenon.? Their posts dated 2015.? Which year is your cutter set?? Is it possible that Felder updated the cutter design and eliminated the locating pins for the current 04.1.160 (year 2020)??
?
Nice and crisp looking miter tenons!? I've been cutting them on the slider using a modified Delta tenoning jig (the one for cabinet saw).? Mine doesn't look as crisp though.?

Regards,

I am looking at the Felder?04.1.160 rebate cutter and wonder about how to separate the cutters apart for tenon cutting. In the Dutch web shop there is an illustration how to separate it (opposing sides towards each other for tenoning as compared to rebate cutting): The (Dutch) description states it comes with spacer rings to adjust for 28 to 55 mm range. Naturally, there are answers on FOG.? I can only find part 04.3.036 (page 446 of the PDF 2020 catalog) in Felder's 2020 catalog as the only shim set available in the shaper tooling section.? It is listed in the slot cutter section of the catalog.? Is part 04.3.036 compatible with part 04.1.160? I don't see why not, it just seems to be another set of spacers, only reason it won't fit might be the outer diameter of the spacers being larger than provided spaceers, which would reduce the length of your tenons. For the rebate configuration the spacers are in the set AFAICT. Regards, Jonathan

Re: Felder Adjustable Rebate Cutterhead
Shinta, 04.1.160 does not have locating pins, so you won't need shims with hole pattern. Use any standard 30 mm shim. I don't know where you are located, here is an example at Axminster: The ones from Felder will work as well, but I don't think they are available in bigger sizes. The Omas ones from Axminster are nice since they have the size imprinted on them. Here is 04.1.160 in action:

Re: Felder F38 feeder repair
They probably got something jammed between two of the wheels at some point and cracked the sprockets. Could have been defective sprockets to begin with¡ hard to say if they are machined from solid steel or sintered from powdered metal without looking at one. Regardless, this isn¡¯t something I¡¯ve ever heard of in all the years, so I doubt it¡¯s a frequent occurrence.

After thinking about Brian's response about the circlips, I unscrewed all of the springs.? With the springs unscrewed and after removing one of the speed change gears from the opposite side, I was able to remove the whole transmission.? Now it will be straightforward to replace the cracked gears.
I just don't know why two drive gears cracked.? Hopefully there isn't something else that caused this.
Thanks everyone for the information!
