Re: Airtight Clamps on a K700S
Well that got more attention than anticipated.
1. Yes the slider will lock in 2 positions if the arrows are nicely lined up. Like threading a needle.
2. The red stripe is a reminder to not wrap my fingers under the slider in this lowered position.
3. Moving an air clamp over will interfere with the overhead guard if I interpret the suggestion correctly. I like the idea of a tiny cylinder or two in the lower slider that press up under the table to lock it in? Imran can even make a remote for it…In Mauve.?
4. Why are the comatic feeders such an ugly color?
5. The long T nut accessory over around 4” wouldn’t slide in over the handle (see Imran’s photo showing the cut notch). I posted a 3D printed?insert to use festool clamps prior to getting Macs clamps.

Aren't all rip blades FTG?? That said, as in Lucky's example above, I recently sent of the combination blade that came with my (you should pardon the expression) SawStop to be ground flat at 10 degrees for use with a dovetail sled.? It cost $25.00, was returned to me in 48 hours, including shipping, and works perfectly.? I sent it to CT Saw & Tool () and can personally highly recommend them.? Jeff

John, do you have a Leitz rep in your area? Leitz have an enormous catalog of tooling and I’ve bought several blades from them which are “blanks” in that the carbide teeth are flat, ready for whatever profile the customer wants. I took one blade “as is” which
makes perfectly flat-bottomed grooves at 3.2mm widths, and I had a second blade ground “all one way” at 8 degrees so I could use it for machine cut dovetails.?

I have been looking for an FTG blade, but they are not easy to find. This would be primarily for flat-bottom cuts.
I bought a couple of Tenryu blades, but they do not offer a flat-tooth option with the right bore for a Felder.
Is it feasible or reasonable to have a saw shop re-bore my 10” blade to fit my Felder?

I bought a Leitz from my local saw sharpening shop and he reground it so it cuts a true flat bottom. I use it for fine detail hardwood joint work.

Yes you can have it re-bored, i have also had an atb reground at one point in the past.
Here is one i recently bought but i think it’s a thin kerf.

Re: Retiring and Selloing Everthing
You should also consider your selling motivation/strategy. For example, your Hammer A3/41 will sell in a heartbeat if your price is 'reasonable'. That's fine if you want to just get rid of stress about selling the stuff and giving someone a gift. (I'm pretty sure that would describe me).
If you want to get as much as you can, price it higher than reasonable and wait a bit.
I put my Hammer a3/31 up for sale here and on Craigslist and had at least five serious buyers in a couple of hours. I sold it the next day. I was fine with it and the new owner was delighted, but it was likely priced too low. It won't take too much research to find the right price to sell it. And if you are too low, you'll know in hours.
Lots of Hammer J/P sell here, and the buyers have done their homework.

Re: Overhead saw guard question
That I wouldn’t know, best to ask Felder that question.

Now I understand what I am looking at ? I appreciate you fellows staying with me until I figured it out.
I suspect the screws holding the eccentric posts in place were installed with thread lock compound, as I have not been able to break them loose. Has that been your experience? Should I be using a heat gun on these? I am afraid to reef on that 5mm hex key too hard.
I am not much of a millwright!

Re: Airtight Clamps on a K700S
Mike,
It may be different on your saw but besides std locking position I can also lock when the slider is fully out, as it would be for loading a sheet. It may not be the intended use but the Locking lever hits (IIRC) the front of the base extrusion under the slider.

Mike, I see the slider lock lever adjacent to the table in your picture. Locate the two arrows on the slider and base and flip the lever inward. Bill Belanger

Re: Retiring and Selloing Everthing
Hello Bill, I wish you a happy and healthy retirement. I have a Felder saw on order, I would be interested in any blades, groover/ dado or other saw accessories. Also....a dust collector and piping/ gates and other shop equipment. Thank you

Re: Retiring and Selloing Everthing
I would also list on this site as well as sawmill creek. ?In addition to Craigslist, I would also list on Facebook market place. ?Since Facebook market place started, Craigslist has kind of fizzled out.
