Re: PF Bracket on AD 941
开云体育Dave – ? It came pre-drilled because I ordered it that way.? The Felder Catalog/Book shows a “Power feeder mount” for an AD/A 951, Format-4/dual 51 (Part No. 430-112) under Power feeders accessories (page 465 in my book).? From the picture, it is a different mounting bracket than mine, and I do not know what my part number is.? Mine appears to be shaped similar to the Hammer tilt away device (Part No 501-127) (same page in the book), but that clearly is not it.? ? I ordered mine through Jesse at Felder Delaware, and he knew what to spec for the machine.? It is definitely heavy/sturdy!? ? Skip ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]>

Re: Zero Clearance Inserts for Hammer K-3

Hey gang...I’m new to the forum, but thought I’d share my ZCI’s. As you all know, most sliding table saws have much to be desired
when it comes to the saw blade insert. Small off-cuts are constantly getting jammed or flung across the shop! There is simply too much space around the blade, or even with other zero clearance inserts, once the blade plunges through it, there is only a small
amount of insert material remaining to the left of the blade. Weak!?
Mine are superb!?
These quality ZCI’s will minimize tear out, eliminate small off-cuts from getting wedged, and make cutting on your Hammer K-3 so much safer!??Made of Baltic Birch and covered on both sides with high pressure laminate (Formica) that is adhered with epoxy (rather than contact cement)...this creates a smooth, strong and very rigid insert.
I’ve shipped over 70 of these with hugely positive feedback. So far these fit:?
Hammer K-3 Felder CF-531 Hammer C3 31 Felder K500P and K500S (please check! The length of mine are 22 13/16” or 579 mm)?
The first link/video (scroll down to see video) shows the inserts in action...the second link is a vid that shows an easy and safe way to elongate the saw kerf to accommodate the riving knife. ?And how I cut the slot for the scoring blade. ?Thanks a ton, Ramon

Re: The Annex workshop addition
开云体育I would encourage you to think more about your projects and workflow - and specifically about ceiling heights. ? Metalworking can mean lots of things, but if you are planning on doing welding and fabrication work, material handling might dictate the need for some kind of gantry crane. ? Also consider getting the equipment into and out of your shop, and if you plan to upgrade or reposition heavy equipment, being at ground level could be important. ? A decent mill will be 2500 pounds and a lathe isn’t much different. ? My shop is in my basement, and getting equipment and materials in to build kitchens and finished cabinets out is always a struggle. ? Also, ceiling height has restricted what equipment I would normally have if I didn’t have constraints (I would already have a Haas VMC if I could get it into the space). ?In my experience, woodworking and machining metal on a mill or lathe can co-exist in the same space if you are disciplined about cleanup and chip control, although oiled ways on a lathe or mill are a magnet for stray sawdust. ? OTOH, grinding on metal for weld prep or cleanup, or a surface grinder without flood coolant produces a mixture of abrasive grit that gets everywhere and should be confined to a separate space away from the other activity. ? Spraying finish is a whole other kettle of fish, and if you plan to spray, you need some method to control overspray and evacuate to the outside. David Best https://www.instagram.com/davidpbest/

Re: The Annex workshop addition
开云体育Well, your metal equipment is heavy, a decent sized mill can be 4000-6000 pounds, a lathe, that kind of depends on size, but maybe 2500 to 5000 pounds. I think, given you’ll spend more time in the woodshop, I’d take the upper story and better light and views for that. Short sidewalls shouldn’t be much of an issue as you can always line the walls with storage or machines that don’t require much height. The ceilings will rise pretty fast as you move a few feet from the wall if it’s going to 16’ at the center. Heat rises, so in the winter the upper floor should be easier to keep warm. The lower floor, given it’s bunkered, will be more consistent in temps.Try to isolate the wood from the metal side, as the dust on the metalworking machines turns into a pain in the butt… I hate dealing with it in my shop.

I was wondering if anyone stores material in shipping containers. I was recently approved to be a distributor for moulding and hardwoods. I am moving forward with the building addition to accommodate that but that is a lot of nice footage to store product that i would like to keep for shop space . So in my thinking shipping containers would let me keep my new shop space. I know there are condensation problems with containers and trying to figure how to deal with that. I think the issue is manly MDFU as much as I hate it, it is the trend here, The other line I got was Bodyguard which will be more stable than MDF. Containers are cheap to buy and I have the room, but I have to eliminate the condensation issue. Any Thoughts? |

Re: AD941 vs. Baileigh JP-1898-NC
开云体育The spacer block I added was specific to the Comatic Smart Stand ?- ?to make it possible to swing the power feeder across the fence. ? Using the the power feeder stand from Felder, a spacer block was not required, but it was a hell of a lot of work cranking up the feeder every time to clear the fence - made even more challenging in my situation because the elevation crank for Felder feeder stand is behind the machine. ? Using a Smart Stand repositions the elevation crank to the the feeder itself, but it does impose the need for a spacer block at the mount since the stand is not as tall as the Felder version. ? You can see my setup here and why I wanted the crank height for the feeder moved to the front of the machine ?- which is what motivated my switch to the Comatic Smart Stand: ??I have heard conflicting stories about the availability of a PF feeder bracket mounting space on the AD741 - it appears to be vintage specific as to whether the machine chassis has the mounting space and attachment points for the bracket.

Re: AD941 vs. Baileigh JP-1898-NC
开云体育Brian is correct. ASAIK a riser is only required with smart stand to clear the fence. when i had a custom bracket fabricated for dual51, with ~6” riser, for smartstand installation a discussion ensued. there was one felder J/P model that did not have beefy enough structure behind to accommodate a PF. will need to find those old msgs to find out which one. imran On Jul 28, 2020, at 2:13 PM, Brian Lamb <blamb11@...> wrote:
