Number 1 and 2 are sold to Huon pine fan.

Others still available, make an offer

Still would prefer local pick up for these

Hi chipbreaker I will hold off on the fence for the moment as I would prefer to sell locally.

I think postage could be an issue due to length.

Sorry mate didn't get a notification about your reply

The combo sander is roughly 400 X 280 and should stand about 650 high.

Drum sander stand is 860 X 660 and about 830 high

Bit of a clear out of some old machinery stands that I no longer need. Thought I'd use them but no point hanging on to them anymore. I do have the bolts to assemble them all in a bag.

I've found that there is a great deal of valuable information on this forum regarding this topic, which is excellent.

However, a forum is not a readily accessible place to find this information....

I haven't seen those Vermont American blades for years now, I'm sure of got some hanging around somewhere. I believe that they have been replaced at Bunnings with Diablo blades, which I find are good...

A mate sent me the link to this yesterday. Had a look over it and I think it seems too good to be true. Especially since they won't actually show the brake cartridge, due to supposed IP protection.

In fact if one was so inclined you could even purchase a 5000mm long rail, for the low price of $999.

Hi cobra,

Whilst I have no experience with either machine it would be beneficial if you could post a few pictures for future reference.

Looks good! You could chuck a few casters on the base too.

So from what I've gathered repacking the batteries and running them on just about any old drill is fine, it's when you go to charge the batteries that you'll run into problems. Lithium batteries are...

The "older" battery packs by the main power tool players use 18650 lithium cells, whilst I believe that the majority of the newer packs especially those labelled as high density or the like use the...

Not sure about Brisbane either but as a side note that website likes to use "2x4's" or 90x45mm here. If you do any projects with that type of timber bunnings sells 6m lengths of it which at least...

Timbernut,

I actually don't have any experience using either, I'm still in the planning stages of my setup. I did use a proper set up with some kind of flexible non see through sheet when i was at...

Bunnings has the same dimension unfortunately.

I'd hope that when you have a bag glued up you'd be able to easily fit a 1220 width sheet in, with say 50mm overlap both sides.. Might be tight...

I've been planning on putting a system together for a little while.

I thought about purchasing one as a second table saw, I'm often going to do little jobs for people now so it'd be handy to have for rougher jobs when I'm "offsite". Never got around to it however.

If you're still there perhaps you have access to the machine space still, take advantage of that whilst you can! There's been many times where having access to the 5 axis cnc, wide belt sander and...

I believe that table saw is also scheppach, as well as being sold under the ozito label at bunnings. Not sure if they still have that one though.

Dado blades are pretty much universal, the only thing to worry about in most cases is your arbor size. Some can be 5/8th whilst others can be 30mm. Big variance.
