The Japanese one seems to be an outside corner chisel. I have a Narex one. It's ok but I usually just use a bevel edge. It's not hard to sharpen. I just touch it up on the edge of a water stone. I've...

You dont need a CB before the VFD. The CB is to protect the cable and is taken care of in the switchboard. The VFD will current limit and protect the motor.

Either one will work. Go for the 2.2kW version. A 10A plug will be fine.
To connect in delta, remove the (dodgy) bridge and replace it with three vertical bridges. You would need to put a meter on...

If you alter the circuit it has to be brought up to current standards. That includes the requirement for all circuits to be protected by residual current devices.
I'm surprised that a unit block...

Hi Paul, I'd be interested in 1/4" and 3/8". I have a veritas dowel maker kit so I can make any size dowel I want. Being Nth American, it's imperial. I can adjust it to make metric dowels but it's...

You can buy a shaped changing pad. Get the dimensions of one of those and make the table to suit. That's what I did, many years ago. Make a comfortable height to work at with a shelf underneath to...

Welcome to the forum Ross, rewiring is not an option.
Changing the motor for a single phase is the least hassle as long as you match the mounting and shaft sizes.
Worst case is you have to...

I love my French cleat wall. It's fun making all the tool holders as well.

Dave Stanton has a number of videos on it. He reckons it's pretty good.

For a 3 HP motor a run capacitor of between 60uf and 80uf, 440V should work. I calculated 74.2uf

What size (?kw) is the motor?

I think I know the machine you are thinking about Brett. If it's the one common to our location it is in very good condition. I haven't run it but had a good look at it a couple of times.

The on/off floor switch is not a good idea. If it's plugged in, anyone who inadvertantly steps on the switch starts the saw blade moving. A dead man is a better idea. You have to be standing on it to...

I wouldn't pin them. Cut your round M&T as per test pieces. Add a dowel a decent length into each for safety. Can be a bit of steel pipe or similar. Bore for the dowels by making a guide on the lathe...

If it was a big tree its probably more than 60 yrs old, i.e it was there when they installed the cable.
Firstly look on the inside of your meter box. A small chance but you never know. There should...

Thats how you move the fence in and out. Theres a steel rod (you can see it in the photo) that the fence slides on. I had one for a while. They are a good solid little machine. Fairly simple, not...

DBYD is a subscription service. You have to pay to have your plans included so there are pretty much zero private property service maps in the system. It's more for supply authorities, telcos and...

That Silky is pretty spectacular. I like the contrast of the wedges too.

The Sargent 1080 fits nicely into the original wooden case with the blades all in the small canvas roll. Both the case and the roll need a bit of refurb. I'll get there.

I've been using that system for years and wouldn't change it. It just works. I've got Prarie Dogs in areas that are blocked underneath and they work great.

I agree, you can't go wrong with an Incra. Even the cheaper ones are miles ahead of the ones that come with the saw.

Pricing added to website

Basically yes. It is a 3HP motor and with efficiencies and power factor mixed in it will draw 4.7A while doing 3HP worth of work. If you overload it and try to do, say, 4 or 5HP worth of work, there...

I wrote a big long explaination about Thermal Overloads but clicked close before I sent it :doh:
The abridged version...A Thermal Overload limits the current that the motor can draw, not how hot it...

It's very new, I haven't worked out the price yet. I'll try and get that done in the next couple of days.

Have a look here.

Start cap = start capacitor. The reason Russ has given is the only thing I can think of that will reverse a single phase motor. Seeing the photos in the other thread, I think he might be right....

Reversing the Active and Neutral on a single phase motor will not make it go in reverse.
You have to reverse either the start winding or the run winding but not both.

Lie Nielsen Twin screw vice

Designed and pre-set to work perfectly with the Carbatec RT-RPU2400 24000W Router Power Unit....from the detailed description.

That looks to be a very nice VFD.
Full functionality and a very concise manual.
See what the Lenze guys have to say, but I would first check that the motor details are still entered correctly C0087...

What VFD is it?

Check that the pulleys are firmly connected to the shafts

In Australia and New Zealand, yes it is Green/Yellow. Older cables and installations had solid green so that is still acceptable as an earthing conductor.

Downloaded and saved. Thanks Ian.

Screw the timber to the truss and screw on another bit the same thickness as the tophat. drill a hole through the middle for the wire. Use a plumb bob with your floor marking to find the exact spot....

I no longer have the Tanner, however, it was mounted on a pressed steel stand with motor mounted inside the stand on a hinged plate. The weight of the motor did the tensioning.

You probably have to prime it as well. Most diesels have a priming pump on the fuel filter.

The two, adjustable curved sections look like cutting edges and the bit in front is a guide. Looks like it cuts some sort of T slot or just cleans up an existing slot :shrug:
Something to do with...

Just use something like an Anka Plug Anka Plugs | Ablefix
Thats probably what was in there in the first place but it has dropped down when it was unscrewed.

Rookie hasn't been on the forum since 2020 and Auld Bassoon is no longer with us.

Depending on what you want to do with the standards there are ways around it. I have purchased a couple of standards for my own company and I have access to most of the electrical standards through...

Nice find Fargo. So its two gauges in a single case. Used as a self check. If the needles don't agree you should get another gauge and send that one for calibration.
Like I said 8 years ago (no I...

That is not the standard set up for jointers. The infeed and outfeed tables should be parallel. Especially over that short distance.
I have zero faith in Timbecons product knowledge and not a lot...

I also have a dickenhobel. Check out Youtube for videos on improving the machine, especially the jointer fence.

Try adjusting the gib strips if it has them. They may be loose and letting the table ends drop. If they can't be adjusted try shimming the tables to get them level.

Geez, put the pressure on. I will start a new thread. Soon

Yep, I still intend to turn it into a self bow. I just have to cut away everything that isn't a bow.
