Re: Power feeder S-308

 

开云体育

Hi Eduard,


The link above shows the seal for the oil chamber for Vario4. My manual shows many other PFs but not your model. So look for a similar seal.

Many posters have recently posted a leak from this seal due to how the PF was stored for a relatively long time. What happens is that the seal drys out and then when PF is in correct orientation it fails to seal.

My manual calls out (see pic in the linked post) some german oil but also says SAE30 can be used.

Hopefully this helps you going.

Imran?

?Hi all,

I was moving my shop for a last 4-5 month and during all this time Felder feeder S-308 was lying on it side, on the pallet. Now after putting it on machine, I see oil dripping from it on the table. Feeder is working, no creasy or unusual sound during powered, but this dripping oil really bothered me. Where it is leaking from, how to stop it( yea, I know, wait for all oil to leaking out ::), and probably I need to replace it? Do I need to buy oil from Felder, with all creasiness with shipping, not the best option? What kind of oil should I use?

Thank you and have a nice weekend.

I just noticed in the shop today that I have a 372, like Taylor said it is a nice saw…

You can use a non flush cut saw but they will gouge the wood surface due to their offset teeth. The flush cut saw has no offset and does not damage the surface much if at all.?

Thanks again for all the feedback. I was not looking for a flush cut saw but if the rip/xcut also worked as one that would have been a bonus. Anyhow, now I have details on the flush cut as well ?

Hi Imran,

I second Taylor's recommendation of the Gyokucho's?

Here's a video by David Barron in which he does a run down of various models and their features and applications. I even hit a hidden nail with mine doing some restoration work and it's still quite sharp. I think I got the 307. I ordered mine off eBay and purchased a spare blade at the same time.?

Congrats Albert. What a beautiful machine. When you ordered, I was able to find a video (or maybe you had shared one) that showed how the sliding table on the side worked. That was fun to watch. Anyhow, I found a brochure and spotted the power feeder stand. I have not seen one like this with counters before.

No its not a Felder its a SCM, I like SCM and Felder but preferred SCM, I may have bought Felder but unfortunately Felder does not offer a spindle moulder with sliding table on its side.?

I wondered will Felder ever offer something similar? I know even a smaller Czech company Houfek offers spindle moulder in this configuration.?

The user manual says I need 7.6m x 6.6m work space for it, with the machine in the middle of it - my workshop is only 9m x 6m. it currently lives in an area of 2.1m x 5m

"Will Felder ever make a spindle moulder like this?"

Well that question is moot for you.

Congrats? on the new toy


Re: Will Felder ever make a spindle moulder like this?

 

While I personally agree with the sliding table configuration you specify Albert, I would guess Felder's retort would be the ability to add outriggers? and crosscut fences to their sliding table system. I thought the new Profil92 had more options and features in that area, though I could be mistaken.? One thing I was surprised at the sliding end table? layout is how much more workspace is necessary to navigate that feature, especially with long boards, for end-cuts. But I do prefer the sliding end table.

Here is my flush cut saw:?

I previously ordered a different, ultra thin flush cut saw and bent it on the first damn use. I am pretty familiar with them and hate the producer for making such a ridiculously thin body that literally became worthless after 6 pulls. Thin cuts fast but also allows movement with no backing...

Re: Finger Pulls on Drawer fronts

 

Bob, I work with Eucalypts all the time. Just treat what you have as a hard wood. You do not specify the wood type - there are a million varieties. Most of the ones I have worked are unlike Maple, which burns if you point a router at it. Just use a slower speed to be safe.

Re: Japanese Pull Saw Recommendation

 

None of those saws in that set (from LV) are designed fir flush cutting. A flush cutting saw will have set on one side of the teeth only, and there would not be a back to the saw plate so as to make the plate/blade more flexible.?

This is a particularly good flush cut saw from LN. It cuts on the pull ...



The smallest saw in the LV set is great for dovetails and fine detail cuts. Incidentally, these saws look to be made by Z-saw, which is a very good company for inexpensive, mass-produced saws. I have a couple.

Japanese saws for tenons? Get a Ryoba. This is a double sided saw, one side fir crosscutting and the other for rip. From LV ...

Thanks everyone. Even though I was not looking for a dovetail saw the endorsements for Dozuki, especially the all out one from Taylor, LOL, convinced me to give Gyokucho 372?a try.

Anyways katabas are the big brother of the 372 (crosscut) and i bought a hand made version by mitsukawa. To be honest the cost doesnt really make sense but tomohito iida has some great deals on other hand made japanese goods. ?He is really friendly and knowledgeable and has contacts with most of the remaining tool makers.?

In general i do not favor the ripping saws from japan because the teeth are so large and aggressive they tear out a lot and just are not a pleasurable sawing experience. The kataba is a happy medium especially in the larger size as it has big but less offset teeth than a similar sized ryoba would. ?You should also try and specify the type of wood you are cutting as softwoods and hardwoods require different setting and spacing of the teeth.?
