I have heard that some dust extractors cant keep up with the DW built in blower resulting in clogging and possible overheating

! other feature with the Dewalt is the built in blower eliminating the need for dust extraction

I have the DW 735,
one day I might upgrade to the helical head

I'm very happy with it as it is...

I have had one very similar (probably the same) that I bought from H&F

its very handy in a lot of applications, but as mentioned you wouldnt want to rely on it for precision work

mine cost $100...

thanks mate

the lower left corner looks similar minus the knots

is it heavy and hard to sand?

I bought a s/h magnifying light off market place which I've adapted to locate to different points of my workbench

its really good for fine stuff and even things like soldering etc, but tends to...

I've had 2 Dmax's, the current one is 2015 and going strong

both of them were/are very economical and perform reasonably for a deisel

If I ever upgrade, it will likely be another Isuzu

I agree with that - love my Dewalt

the hikioki has been offered at big discounted prices, I can only assume its not a big seller and there's been some average reveiws for it

its a pity that the...

these boxes look great, really like what you've done with the inserts (I think i've just found a use for all the 6 mm cedar I have)

I like to use the 90deg hinges timbecon used to sell, bit exxy...

I had a fairly new Metabo 216mm quite similar to the hitachi

I adjusted the fence to make it square as per instructions, yours could be the same

one thing the dewalt has over most of the others is the built in blower that removes the need for dust extraction,

I have the dewalt 735 and love it, I am still using standard blades which give...

I bought a plastic chute made specifically for my victa mower, it clips on where the catcher would normally go and doesn't seem to leave rows of clippings behind

Hi mate

I'm assuming you mean "reputable"

I keep seeing woodworking bits and bobs popping up on various sites that get my interest

I don't like the pushy "download our app" carry on tho

I...

It looks like you were talking about WWF market place, me thinking FB marketplace, sorry 'bout that

In saying that I don't recall having any problems with WWF market place

I can do better than that:

CASH on pick up

I'm happy to transfer funds to members on this forum and similar ones due...

thanks jpdv

I too proceeded to start making zero clearance inserts until I looked at the manual ( which is something I do last) whick outlined that procedure

I'm liking the saw so far, I bought...

Its not binding or catching on the non winding side post is it? you could try light upward pressure under that side to see if it helps

if so you could spray WD40 or similar on it and see if it...

I just bought a PS254DB for a good price second hand

I'm quite happy with the Dual bevel feature and found out it can do 70 deg mitres as well, which I believe is unique to AEG

I'm thinking of...

they were both reverse models, just looking at the parts diagram yours doesn't appear to have the screw

It sounds like it is ready to go to drill heaven

there are many good choices out there to...

I've changed 2 different ones

they both had a left hand thread screw at the base of the chuck inside
the screw had to be removed before trying anything as mentioned

might not be the same in...

Ha Ha nice one

its a bit hard on poor old Ena

Chief, you went to a BOC concert, I am green with envy, I have liked them for years and still do, perfect workshop music lol

I'm not sure about the trade name, I bought it from Crescent timber in Sydney

they have/had a good range of profiles for architraves and skirting boards

mine were 200mm skirting boards, I...

I used fingerjoint pine, for its lower cost and the fact I was painting it

I started out on the rawl plug path and became totally frustrated with it until a carpenter buddy enlightened me to spaghetti

I have used it many times on architraves and skirting boards on 3...

I had to replace the skirting boards in my federation house after rising damp rectification

I used a product called "spaghetti" made by ramset

it comes in a small roll to be cut as you use it...

good luck with that

+1 for the Dewalt

the great thing about these beasts is the built in blower, I have also made a collection bag that fills very fast

It also leaves a nice smooth finish

I've seen quite a few...

my money is on the notion that the router is in "plunge" mode

but based on previous input from the OP we may never know

Hodgo

how about posting some decent close up photo's that show us what the actual problem is

one other thing to consider is : does the rack and pinion and micro adjust function correctly from beneath...

If its engaging and turning the "T" connection that I mentioned in my earlier post and nothing is happening, there has to be something more sinister within the router itself, ie. stripped or very...

likewise

Hi trevor

Its hard to see anything in those photo's

there should be a "T" attachment protruding from the alloy body that the winder handle engages with

it may be possible they have supplied...

you could always buy a triton TRA001 with over head height winder

there's a few S/H around for sale

I dont think anything will fit the triton

I had the same problems as you have said and ended up making a table with a woodpecker insert and the tra001 with kitchen bench top material which I...

the wobble washers sound interesting

cheers

I've just bought one of these and mounted it on a good spot on the bench

first time I turned it on it vibrated the whole shed with things falling off shelves etc

as it was slowing down I...

I actually think some manufacturers dont give a toss

the specs on the dewalt 7491 say it has a 16mm arbour, so possibly a "5/8" bore hole wouldn't fit even tho it is marked 5/8 (with 16mm marked...

its all a bit confusing really

note the bore size

I cant help thinking they would get a higher strike rate if the price was closer to $600,

$150 seems to be "too good to be true"

I might be in the wrong place here

typically they are all $150 or $155 which is...
