Re: Mantle Build Question
I've done similar shelf installation down and dirty with lag screws into the studs. Once driven, the heads were cut off, and holes bore in the back of the shelves with an auger bit. Squirt some PL adhesive in the holes and slide it on. Jason Holtz J. Holtz Furniture

Re: Mantle Build Question
David,
Thanks for the details. I guess if I were to do this, i will probably epoxy the brackets in the mantle and then bolt the verticals to the studs while keeping mantle level. This on account of my ability to free hand drill as required to do this right.

Re: KF700sp and AD741 used pricing
The older machines have a single trunnion affair and it supports the whole spindle and motor system on one end of the assembly. This brings into account an adjustment nightmare dealing with “angle of the dangle” as well as toe-in and toe-out in the other direction. Failure to get the angle correct creates all sorts of issues when tilting the saw/shaper aggregate.
All that said, my old machine is of this design and once set, it’s pretty stable. If I was looking for a machine though, it would be the double trunnion machine… more easily adjusted and has better longevity of settings, and with the polymer materials used in the trunnion the smoothness and easiness of tilting is considerably better.

Re: Mantle Build Question
For what it’s worth, this is a lot of clamps, lots of “bouncing” load like 16” out.
2 cabinet mounting screws into the studs, 3/4” French cleat. ? ?Not sure what they’re doing on the mantle that would need more than that.

Re: Kappa 400 Below Table Dust Extraction + Kappa 400 Review
Mark,
Can you give us more colors about your reasoning of virtually going T60 instead of K940, or even T60 instead of Kappa 400 (basic no X motion). Price wise, as far as I know, a T60 with DRO is more comparable to a Kappa 400 basic.
Thanks,
Bill

I would remain patient with the seller. I think in time he will sell to you. Sometimes you need to let people test the market and become frustrated/educated on reality.?
What trunnion issue? Do you mean prior to the redesign in 2006-2008 to the double trunnion? I don’t know if that’s much of a flaw to be concerned about.?

Re: Mantle Build Question
I just did this for a client in Bend OR - not live edge, but 8” thick with returns at the end in white rift-sawn Oak. ?We had a local fabricator make steel L-brackets that attached to the studs - 3 of them held together with flat bar in two places. ?The vertical members were 3/16" wall 1.5 x 1.5 square tube, mitered and projecting out from the wall. ?The verticals were drilled and through-bolted with carriage bolts to the studs about 2 feet long running upward from the CL of the mantle. ?This mantle projected 12” from the wall, and the L-brackets projected 10” total beyond the sheetrock. ?The GC used 2” augers to bore out for the L-brackets, and imbedded the entire mess in epoxy. ?It’s never coming down.

Re: Mantle Build Question
Brett,
It seems that most brackets are meant for hollow shelfs/mantles where the size of the hollow can be controlled precisely.
I thought of similar approaches to your suggestion none as clever though ? The returns on each side would really make that really challenging. I am doing this as a favor and do need to limit my time as I have too many things that still need done.
I thought that we can saw off the live edge face followed by ripping thick boards from the top and bottom of the remaining log. Then recreate the log with hollow center. This likely will get rid of the most moist part of the log but there is no telling what would happen to the cut pieces once they are removed from the main log.

Otherwise, a clever method if the situation makes sense is to cut? the back of the board a good 1-1.5" from the back edge, and use it to mount directly to the wall with recessed anchors. Then use dominoes in an array to push the rest of the board against the mounting slice, and the piece will be impossible for the next guy to figure out how you did it once the adhesive sets and the dominoes swell. If you dry fit the dominoes beforehand like you are supposed to, you can tweak the joint line to make invisible, which shouldn't be too tough on ash given grain orientation. Fun project!
