Re: Felder K500S vs K700P
Aaron: I appreciate that is a difficult decision, as I have a 400 sq' shop, as well; upgrading to the K700S (9') from a 10" cabinet saw was the most important change I've made to my woodworking. My

Re: Felder K500S vs K700P
I think you made the right choice. I have a K700 with the 8 foot slider and since I retired, I very rarely have the need to rip down full sheets of ply and often wish that I had a shorter slider that

Re: K940
Dan, Actually it is the other way around, it was after Felder sent me a big pile of ? ?. It was my only way out, they credited me total cost of the k700, i had to crate it but they paid shipping

Re: K940
Mark you definitely got a deal there. Was that after you made a big stink about your k700s? I got powerdrive for free on my k700s (wasn¡¯t on the build sheet but machine came with it) and I paid

Re: K940
Tom, everything you mentioned on my k940 (2800 slide) + 2 dro stops, dro on rip, auto scoring, scoring safety lights. 17k delivered. Now I didn¡¯t push for pricing on the Kappa but i think I remember

Re: K940

Re: K940
Hi Mark! The machines (K940S and Kappa 400) I had spec'd were right at the crossover point of the two machines, which probably accounts for the price similarity. Without going into an exhaustive

Re: K940
Hi Brendan, Earlier this year I was debating about whether up perform some upgrades on my KF700 and just buying a new machine, so I spec'd out a K940S and a Kappa 400. Similarly spec'd, they were

Re: K940
I have a Kappa 400 xMotion that I bought new configured to my particular specifications and needs. The K940 and Kappa 400 do share the same chassis, and many of the options are identical. Like Mark

Re: Bandsaw power
Doug, one last recommendation, which is likely in a lower price range but from the Felder stable: I have had a Hammer N4400 bandsaw for around 10 years. It has never missed a beat. In all these years

Re: Bandsaw power
Thanks for all of the useful observations and information - I am relieved that I can scale down my anticipated power need for resawing work, and it sounds like others have dealt with exactly the

Re: Zero guide and parallel guides and air clamps
It¡¯s just a repeatable stop that you set to be exactly where the blade cuts the material off. Then you can throw it on the table and set the parallel fences to that exact point. I accomplish the

Re: Zero guide and parallel guides and air clamps
Is this device of Sang's just a bump stop? I'm not sure I'm following how it's used or why it's any better than using the rip fence. Jason Jason Holtz J. Holtz Furniture www.jholtz.com 3307 Snelling
