I have recently taken delivery of a Tesla Model Y, I am assuming that the number of forum owners with these vehicles will grow.
I do not have FSD at this stage but I am interested to hear from...

Sorry Pat, the pic may have been misleading as it was a lateral shot not vertical.

The adjustment is not easily accomplished as it entails accessing the headstock through the pulley change and...

Has anyone on the Forum found the Headstock and tailstock misaligned?
I was unable to find an answer in the manual but I eventually got the answer from Laguna.
I will post it if I...

So Bob, I coded up a robot for my grandson last christmas with Arduino.
What libraries and coding did you use for data logging from the particle sensor?

Keep the data flowing.

Les.

NeilS, I have now received the PM 2.5 sensor.
Do you record your readings manually or do you have an App or code to download data on to your computer?
My Comp. is a Mac.

OK Bob you have steered me off the BMH. I will wait to see the particle count I am dealing with. I hope the Dust sensor Tester that Neils suggested
is accurate enough for this purpose.

Thanks Neil - your experience has helped me a lot.
I have ordered a PM2.5 sensor and I will post some results when I get it up and running.

I already have some magnets at the bottom of my Pro...

To answer your queries -

Flex is 90mm diam.
CMS is Cubic metres per second.
Measuring device is a Proster digital Anemometer.

My progress has been slow mainly due to the advice I have received on this forum( thankyou all) and I have now dug deeper into the annals found there.
I possess a number of different types of masks...

My method of containment so far is as your findings. I am well aware of debris movement in the system especially the need of a regular impeller inspection.
My innovation is the plastic curtain at...

I hope this is not too far out of context here but I am trying to set up D/E for a new lathe located adjacent to the workshop and I have been concentrating on
setting up a bell mouth for sanding...

Yes, machine was replaced. The only label I could find was 1200W under the cover of the auxiliary GPO.
Episode is still not over because I left the sliding table fittings on the S/S. They cannot...

hi! old Hilly,

Here is a graph of Voltage and current in the period of S/S failure.

The circled area is the period I was using the saw.

When the current is positive I am pulling current from...

Hi! all contributors to this thread.

I have now received a replacement TKS 80 S/S table saw from Festool.

Contact was made with the service Dept and they gave clarification to the various...

In the day of the smart meter this info is available. I have a graph sent to me some time ago that plots the supply volts through a fortnight period.

Back to the S/S, I received a message...

Hi Hilly,
I was having problems with my 240V reticulated supply nearly 3 years ago. The problem was over voltage with peaks up to 270V.
This was adjusted and then ranged between 255/227 Volts. I do...

Hi Old Holly,

Yes I agree (Fuses seconds, Circuit breakers milli - seconds), I have been brushing up on my old RMIT formulae and realised
that we now live in the digital age where sensors and...

Hi Bohdan,
According to the handbook(P.34) the motor and its electronics are designed to deliver constant speed at wherever the speed is set(1700-3500 rpm).
in my instance about 2600rpm. In this...

The discussion so far has centred on the ratings of the various components of the circuitry including the leads.
My ref below gives some clarity to how burn outs can occur.
In this instance my...

Hi Alkahestic,
The S/S manual states the saw has a 2000W rating in Aussie. It also states ' The power supply is restricted if the power tool is overloaded' so in my case for some unknown reason (at...

Thanks Brian, I had a look at the link and it looks an easy solution but I received the Festool stop today. of course I
do not have a S/S to fix it too. The saw is still sitting in the local...

correction to pics reference:
Both pics became disoriented in the download process.
crosscuts are sawstop left and chop saw right.

So today I spoke to Festool service dept who on current...

Prior to purchase I had some reservations about saw mobility and D/E flex sizes. As of now, I give mobility 6/10. It is ok once you get to know where the centre of balance is but
ergonomically it is...

Trial has now ended as the TBS 80 ceased to operate due to an electrical fault!

Better news now - TKS arrived Christmas Eve ; put together ok. Trial period begins.

Hi Brian,

Thank you for your comments. I will get back but I am afraid there will be some wait time.

My retired T/saw was a Makita which was also accurate for ripping> 1Mm and sizing of timber.
I too noted the facility for accuracy on the TKS 80 and the sliding table accessory plus some mobility...

I have one of these on order (First week of November).

Anybody else having these shipping problems?
I am concerned about the April date!

Thank you T91 for sharing your experience and time you put in at the CWG.
I set up my workshop five years ago and in that time I have battled with the 14BX mainly I think because I was a 'greenhorn'...

despite the odd negative review with the RK and after experiencing the parting of the ways of a 'standard' 12mm blade from Henry bros I presented the RK cost to the chief accountant for approval and...

Go for it Des, I have fitted my cave out with them and have found them superior to flouro's. They should have a marked Lumen rating.
