Re: KF700sp and AD741 used pricing
I've been hunting for used, local felder machines (and other woodworking machines) for 2-3 years. From the used sales I see, the tooling is worth as much or more than machines. If you don't need some, or most, of the tooling, sell it and recoup your initial investment.
If I had a pile of cash laying around for machines--and absolutely wanted a felder slider/shaper and jointer/planer, I'd offer something reasonably close to his ask and earn my money back selling those highly-desirable bits and pieces.
Offer him $12K for the machines and $6K for everything else. See if he bites or counters :-)
Let's be honest--people are selling 30 year old "refurbished" Shopsmiths for $1-2K on craiglist. Well, they're trying to.?

After a quick look the KF700 and AD741 are in working order, appear to be in great condition with no rust or damage, but are in need of a cleaning. ?The slider is 9' (not 8') and operates very smoothly. Both have mobility kits installed.
The KF700 has remote start for saw and scoring at end of slider. ?There are two shaper hoods, transport and mounting unit, 2 ecentric clamps, F38 power feeder, outrigger with extension, crosscut fence with extension, tenoning plate, 4 shaper spindles, what
appears to be a DGL 690, 9 or more Felder blades, 3 freud blades, a lot of shaper tooling (really a lot), stainless steel rolling tool cabinet, dust collection fittings, extra 49" fence bar and measure, and many more items.
There might be a extension table for right side of the cast iron top hidden somewhere in the shop.
This is essentially an estate sale. ?The surviving son is asking $20K for the machines and accessories with $2000 extra for the tooling and cabinet.?
There is a lot here and as Joe said, much of the tooling I might never use.
I estimated an incomplete list of the accessories and tooling that did not come with the individual units with pricing from Felder's online store and internet searches at about $15K. ?
So, these are 14 year old machines, in good to excellent condition. The KF700 has desirable features with digital-drive, variable speed, a feature I believe is not offered today and accessorized to the hilt.?
Still on the fence, because of the cost and I can't help feel like there may be some missing parts. ? Here are some photos.

Thanks for your valuable contribution to this discussion. I had a feeling I was going to get the kind of answers regarding Martin products you had mentioned. I'm also looking to compare offerings from manufacturers just to understand the value proposition since for me it's not a clear path to choose.?
I'm also starting to wonder once these shaper rigs and tooling and accessories get so awesomely expensive that I shouldn't be making the alternative investment in a full-on 4 to 6 head moulder to accomplish some of the same missing efficiencies while adding more capacity to our production capabilities -? but I'm not trying to take a tangent to the original discussion of improved?shaper options.

Yes, the sliding table I referred to is not the side sliding table for the tenonning on Martin shaper.

On Mon, Jan 4, 2021 at 4:34 PM David Luckensmeyer < dhluckens@...> wrote: Hi Brett:
You mentioned the Profil 45Z (presumably X-motion) under a heading which included: ¡°CNC (or at least programmable)¡"
Regarding the Profil 45Z X-motion, here are some details. I¡¯ve had this machine for approximately 5 years. And channelling David Best¡¯s post from yesterday: Sorry Felder.
1. The Profil shaper will not hold calibration, not for the fence, not for the spindle. Period. I have more than a dozen cutters ¡°set up¡± and ¡°calibrated¡± in the machine, and another dozen cutters that I use manually and have not bothered to enter. I can calibrate one cutter perfectly, only to find that it is no longer calibrated a few weeks later. In such instances, the cutter is always out, by 0.1mm to 0.3mm. Always. (I have an Aigner Distometer for calibration purposes.)
2. At first various users thought this was a programming or user error. I certainly thought this. There is a ¡°calibration page¡± in the programming which ¡°no one¡± knows what to do with. Certainly no one in Australia. I believe John F. and Joe D. took the matter direct to Felder at a trade show in Europe but also did not get to the bottom of it. You¡¯d have to ask them for details.
3. I believe at least one user has done repeated testing (Joe D.) to see if the calibration issue is hardware rather than software. I recall that he found inconsistencies with the hardware (e.g. repeatedly moving the spindle up and down and then measuring for deviations). I think his comments are in the archives.
4. I am a professional woodworker who has only used a shaper for the last 5 years. I admit that I have a lot to learn. But I should also point out in my defence that I use my shaper for complex joinery and not as a glorified router table. So while I don¡¯t have the cred of someone like Ultimate Joe (I bow before you Joe!), I am speaking from first hand experience.
5. At the price I paid, I love the Profil X-motion. The interface is outstanding. But that interface controls what is essentially a manual shaper. If I want to use a previously calibrated cutter, I test the current settings (fence and height), make a test cut, and enter the discrepancy to re-calibrate the cutter. That¡¯s it: a very nice manual shaper.
6. I have recently participated in the installation of a T27 Martin shaper with all the boxes ticked. At more than twice the price of the Profil 45Z X-motion, it had better be good. I was blown away by the machine. To be clear, I don¡¯t know whether it holds calibration any better than the Profil, but ¡ :-)
7. I understand you desire a longer sliding table like the one Joe D. had. I would love that too, precisely for oversized doors. The T27 has a tenoning option which is very large and very robust. I think it is exactly what you want, but it comes at a very significant cost. (I¡¯m not sure what you mean James when you say that Martin do not have a sliding table on their shaper¡? I assume you mean across the front of the machine?)
My personal opinion: if you want a CNC or programmable shaper, I¡¯m confident you will be disappointed with the Profil 45Z X-motion.
Warm regards,
Lucky
All,?
I am considering the cost/value proposition of investing in a shaper setup that has automated programmable?setup capacities (or more?). I am curious what your recommendations may be for shopping brands, models,? and options. I'm becoming less convinced that a used machine will show up on the market as I've been looking for a while and what I've seen has pretty much only been Joe in N.O.'s Profile45, but admittedly I was looking for a larger sliding table to run oversized door setups, and I'm not totally convinced the Felder offerings are the only ones I should be looking at.?
Currently I'm invested in the 700z-class of shaper and not sure I'd want to give them up. I'd even consider putting on an upgraded fence module that can give me the automatic adjustments, but not sure if it is possible or if I can do it feasibly compared to adding another machine.?
With tedious manual setup inefficiencies switching back and forth on small projects I'm assessing the opportunity cost of all those nickels and dimes per se.

I adjusted the bottom screws as I bought the planer second hand and it was set up terribly, once I had the planer sorted the feed rollers needed to be adjusted lower so they actually caught the wood. This was however two years ago and it has been pretty problem free until I encountered the issue I¡¯m having.?

? David,
I am not 100% but my thought is that one would only adjust the tension from top screws that compress the spring. The bottom ones should be set to factory settings, whatever they are.
If you adjusted the bottom screws, I would definitely check for parallel. Hopefully, someone here would correct me if I am wrong.

? ? David,
Do you get an indentation/groove where the infeed has been slipping? This would just be an indication of slippage.
I am interested in this because i have occasionally experienced where boards get stuck at the end of the feed. I have only observed this with cypress and WRC and cleaning gas been sufficient so far.
All I can think of is to double check that feed rollers are parallel to the bed. Looking at the exploded diagram, the height of the roller is determined by a screw in each end that bears at the bottom of the roller shaft via the bearing (as best as i can tell).
The spring force on top of the roller adjusts the resistance that the wood had to overcome to push the roller up.
I am curious what happens if the bearings are going out? maybe the roller do not move up evenly in each side and cause feed issues. Just spitballing. I cannot look at my machine as every horizontal surface is coved with parts being finished.

David,
I am not 100% but my thought is that one would only adjust the tension from top screws that compress the spring. The bottom ones should be set to factory settings, whatever they are.
If you adjusted the bottom screws, I would definitely check for parallel. Hopefully, someone here would correct me if I am wrong.

Yes if it sticks it leaves a Mark from the infeed roller turning but not moving the wood ( I can see this happening if I look under the table)? I¡¯m not sure if the infeed has possibly worn and causing this? I haven¡¯t checked if the rollers are perfectly parallel with the bed if I¡¯m honest, I adjusted them with the screws you mention below the table once a couple of years ago but I haven¡¯t touched them since.?
Thanks! David.? On 5 Jan 2021, at 17:46, imranindiana via groups.io <imranindiana@...> wrote:
? ? David,
Do you get an indentation/groove where the infeed has been slipping? This would just be an indication of slippage.
I am interested in this because i have occasionally experienced where boards get stuck at the end of the feed. I have only observed this with cypress and WRC and cleaning gas been sufficient so far.
All I can think of is to double check that feed rollers are parallel to the bed. Looking at the exploded diagram, the height of the roller is determined by a screw in each end that bears at the bottom of the roller shaft via the bearing (as best as i can tell).
The spring force on top of the roller adjusts the resistance that the wood had to overcome to push the roller up.
I am curious what happens if the bearings are going out? maybe the roller do not move up evenly in each side and cause feed issues. Just spitballing. I cannot look at my machine as every horizontal surface is coved with parts being finished.
