Re: Mac Clamps for Sale

Brandon,

2001 is pre Xroll but not an issue going to Xroll. Going the other way, from Xroll to pre-Xroll, if the nut is 1/2¡± thick the two bottom sides need to be chamfered vs square.

I keep my old Makita in the barn but seldom use it. Good for siding and rough outside projects. The Mafell ks400 is a worthy replacement tool for trim and especially scribe work.?

Hi Chad,

Here is the post regarding ordering with custom sensor cable length.

Re: Are Miter saws relevant with a great slider? #poll-notice

 

Hey Albert
Do you not have a Fritz & Franz jig for your slider?? (Google it plus other threads in the FOG have mentioned this)
Probably the most used attachment or jig I use on my slider.? (My F&F needs to be made a lot better but even what I have makes cutting particularly small pieces easy and safe.
Cheers

Re: Are Miter saws relevant with a great slider? #poll-notice

This is a great thread/poll.

?

The crux of the matter, gathered from the various comments, plus my own experience:

?

  1. A Kapex or similar compound angle mitre saw is a very useful machine. It can do precise, repetitive work, and it can break down long boards with ease. (Personally I sold my Kapex as it took up too much space and was not accurate enough for anything other than breaking down boards ¨C like Joe said). If you have the space, it¡¯s a no-brainer to keep it for this purpose alone.

?

  1. The problem is that most of us could use the space for something else. The sliding table saw is an excellent stand-in for a Kapex, both for precision repetition, and for breaking down long boards. But some people just don¡¯t have their sliders configured in a way that allows for breaking down long boards (like me).

?

  1. Like others here, I use a 6¡± or 8¡± (if required) hand-held circular saw to break down long boards, laid out on Euro-horses. Very effective and quick.

?

  1. So in the end, my Kapex was not suitable for precision work (slider is better), but excellent at breaking down long boards (slider is just as good unless not configured for that), in which case a hand held circular saw works very well.

?

Conclusion: If you have the space, then keep your Kapex (or equivalent). But if you can use the space for anything else, anything else at all, ditch it. You¡¯ll miss it every once in a while, but then you¡¯ll be happy that you have space for that third bandsaw, or second sander, or multi-router, or whatever.

?

Warm regards,

Lucky

This has been a debate in my head for some time. I keep thinking about selling the Kapex but just can¡¯t do it. I built a new set of cabinets last year and still have the kapex sitting right in the center. I haven¡¯t used it in so long that I need to make a decision. I just bought an Evolution S355MCS Metal Cutting Chop Saw and I¡¯m thinking it may be the replacement for the Kapex.?

I have shared it multiple times that the Chinese DRO can be ordered with sensor wire length specified.

If someone wants to take advantage of that and cannot locate previous email let me know.

My soldering skills aren't that good, so I designed a taller one with more room in the cavity to hold the cord. I uploaded both designs, so if your soldering skills are better than mine, the lower profile one is there also. The reader head insert file is a small insert to go in the holes on the reader head so it can be attached to the frame. You will need to run a 2mm tap through them. You can attach the bolt running through your flip stop with an 8mm heatset insert. The bolt and the insert have to align perfectly, so the insert has to go in straight, but it's not a problem if you use good inserts. The two holes in the front are so you can fit a small #0-2 screwdriver through to tighten the screws. The screws I used are McMaster Carr # 91305A102 and the heatset inserts are #94180A386. The mag tape insert file is for helping to align the tape in the center of the tracking.?

Re: Are Miter saws relevant with a great slider? #poll-notice

 

for years I have not had a mitre saw because everything was cut on the slider, recently I have added a mitre saw back to the workshop because I cant easily cut anything under 200mm on the slider..?

but most of the time the Omga is just cutting firewood...?

I second all Rich¡¯s points. Especially aluminum flake going into the dust collector system.

Re: Sheet good recommendations

 

Thanks Jonathan and David,

I¡¯ve had JoinerCAD for a few months, I¡¯m pretty familiar with it. It definitely speeds up carcass and shelf creation, but it still requires the drudgery of importing STP files for each different connector. It also still requires you to physically place the connectors on the model rather than adapt to add the correct hardware spacing (or even type)

Windows 11 is ghastly¡­.. I don¡¯t like going between the two operating systems at all. I¡¯m seriously considering just committing to a single design language on furniture and cabinets so that I can just use my models in Fusion and use my Mac. Obviously this move would mean less business, but at least I wouldn¡¯t have to try to find hinges I¡¯ve never heard of for fussy designers.
