Re: Jet "JTM-4VS" Vertical Mill - Elk Grove, CA
开云体育i assume you comment is in jest. we have had few threads about milling machines here. few of us, not me, own them and some would like to, so the reason for sharing. FWIW, it sold for $3450 ($3967 with buyers premium). perhaps, milling a part to fix a tool used for cabinet door building is how it can actually help build a cabinet door. personally, i like items that incorporate metal with wood but i do not have metal working knowledge beyond basics. imran On Dec 2, 2020, at 9:53 AM, tomruth@... wrote:

Re: Screws
开云体育i thought i had read that the length of screw into the material that you are fixing the object to, should be at min 1.5x of the object (being fixed) thickness. so if you are securing 3/4” thick material to something then 1 1/8” of the screw should be in that substrate. the total length then would depend on whether the screw is flush or recessed in the 3/4” material. i hope i am remembering this correctly. wish i could find the source. obviously just a basic rule with many caveats. imran On Dec 1, 2020, at 12:24 PM, Bill James via groups.io <xxrb2010@...> wrote:
?Following up on Assy plus screw for plywood cabinet, I would like to try some new screws for plywood cabinet carcasses.?I called the local Wurth and they only have 2" in stock, but I can order any size they do not have in stock. So, what size is a good size for 3/4 plywood. I currently use 1.5" screw from rockler, but this is what I have and no idea if good or not. Thanks, Bill |

Re: Langzauner LZK-3-NCV Edge Sander - new to me
开云体育I was looking for either.? This particular one has the feed built in but you can only work on one side.? The Kundig Uniq is two sided.? One side set for calibrated sanding, even sanding lacquer between coats.? The other side is like a regular edge sander.? If it was a Kundig I would have paid the same. ?

Really sweet machine Joe.? Even if it turns out to need 460v, that machine is well worth the cost of a transformer.? I've got to research the Langzauner.? Dave

I "won" today at auction an edge sander that I've been looking for at auction for a couple of years.? Apparently the Euro veneer sanders are scarce in the US.? This was has the feed belt built in with a top mounted pressure bar.? This machine was built
for 230V/460V but it's wired for 460V so I will need to get that sorted.? And I will need to again order more Nordfab pipe.? Now the fingers crossed wait to make sure it arrives safely.

? Hi Imran Thanks for sharing that link the book looks really useful. One of my go to books for problem-solving is the Encyclopaedia of Furniture Making by Ernest Joyce, updated by Alan Peters. There is a chapter on carcass building that refers to the Design Manual for Cabinet Furniture published by Furniture Development Council. I suspect that this book was published a very long time ago and I’m not even sure that the so-called Furniture Council still exists. But it sounds like a really useful guide to the structural design of cabinets for stiffness and longevity. I tried to track it down but can’t find a trace of it has anybody heard of this book?

Re: Langzauner LZK-3-NCV Edge Sander - new to me
开云体育If it is a dual voltage machine 230/460, then all you should have to do is change the wiring connections and possibly some “heaters” if it uses them in the contactors (picture below). This is/was pretty common in the machine shop. Nice looking machine!
