Re: Hello all,
Glen, Something you'll want to consider is support...this forum is an excellent source of support for Felder equipment. Felder may or may not monitor the forum but if you're having issues with your

Re: hello all
Yes, spending money that isn't ours is certainly fun! You have received some excellent advice already, but I'll add my two cents. Dave K. and I are very much in the same school regarding machinery (

Re: hello all
Dave D. He's already talked to Harry from Felder Austria. For those that don't know Harry he is who Felder sends out to train all the sales people. I drank beer with Harry, he's good and very

I can see that this is going to be a fun conversation as we try to help Glen spend his money. Dave [felder-woodworking] <felder-woodworking@...> wrote:

Re: hello all
Glen, to mess with your head a little more, here is another option. If you have the room you could start with a medium sized shaper with a sliding table like the F700. It is as versatile as any shaper

Re: hello all
Hi Glen, I work in a co-op shop that includes 4 professional furniture makers, and a couple hobbyists as well. We have 4000 square feet of space, and redundancy in many machine areas-saws in

Re: Hello all,
Glen, Don't get obsessed with buying the best machine available. It does not make sense to buy a Martin t27 shaper if you are a hobbyist. You will be paying for features you will not take advantage

Re: Hello all,
I¡¯ll second Dave Kumm¡¯s comment that there isn¡¯t a single brand that is best-in-breed at everything. My shop is mostly Felder (Kappa 400 xMotion, Profil 45, Dual 51, RL160), and I have owned

Re: Hello all,
Hi Glen, Welcome to the group.? As others have said, you will find it very friendly and informative. As a hobby user, who gets out to her workshop far too infrequently at the moment, I'm probably the

Re: Hello all,
Some Martin machines are rebadged Griggio so you have to know what you are looking at even with Martin. Hoffmann will argue they are superior to Martin, just not available here. My point is to do lots

Re: Hello all,
Martin does not make all the woodworking machines, but for all the machines and accessories http://www.martin-usa.com/ has on their websites, IMO they are the best in the world. If money is not an

Re: Hello all,
Glen, I'd ask if there is a reason to buy all machines from one company. As great as Felder is, I don't believe every machine in every line is the best choice. I don't think any company can claim

Re: Hello all,
This is absolutely a very nice purchase list of the machines that many pro shops do not have. I can see you love high quality machines, you probably should take a look at Martin

Re: Hello all,
Glen: Nice ¡°to-purchase¡± list! Several of us have the Kappa 400 x motion, including myself. But the person you really want to take advice from? David Best. Seriously consider every piece of advice

Re: Hello all,
I have had Felder machines since 2008, 8 to be exact. All work well but my next go round will be Martin. I always buy when there is a special and never paid their full price.? JohnJMK Services

Re: Hello all,
Glen, Now is the time to buy the Kappa 400 if they still have 60th anniversary pricing on the saw. You didn't say where you are or perhaps I missed it but the Dallas showroom has one with all the
