    Felder Hammer mobile base dimensions

    Thank you. Here is the link to the product Planer-thicknesser Hammer A2-26 1 x 230V 50Hz Here is a picture from the manual. It would be difficult to scale, especially the inner hole in the wheel. That is why I wanted real dimensions, as many people who have Hammer machines also bought this...

    Felder Hammer mobile base dimensions

    Hello, I have ordered Hammer A2-26 jointer/thickness planer, which is due to arrive in January 2024. I need it to be mobile, but it is ridiculous to pay over 200 € for their mobile base. Does anyone own this base (it is shared among all Hammer machines)? Can you tell me the wheel diameter and...

    Hammer A2-26 jointer/thickness planer

    I would be curious to know if the name of the city has some connection to the economists Milton Friedman and John Maynard Keynes.

    Hammer A2-26 jointer/thickness planer

    Thank you for the information, but as I live in Slovakia, I would get parts through a local dealer directly from Austria, so I hope it will not be an issue.

    Soundproofing jointer / thickness planer combo

    Hello, I am in search of a jointer/thicknesser combo. I am keen on buying Hammer A2-26 (the recently introduced model) which is the lowest offer of Felder products. However this machine does not have a spiral cutter head and I am concerned about the noise, as I have a few neighbors who are...

    Hammer A2-26 jointer/thickness planer

    Thanks Tom for the feedback. Wider machines would be out of my price and power range , as they are usually 3 phase. I am just sorry that it will not be as quiet as a spiral cutter, but I will plan my milling operations when I know that neighbors are away.

    Hammer A2-26 jointer/thickness planer

    Hello, I am in search of buying a 230V (EU plug) jointer /thickness planer machine. I have just found out that Felder released this year a brand new Hammer A2-26 jointer thickness planer. It is a bare-bone machine, but looks nice...

    What is the optimal workbench length for you

    Thank you very much. I have bought some more maple for this bench and I think I will be able to make a shorter version (1.5-1.6 m) of this bench made from maple only for my son. He is right handed, so I will place my bench to the left and his bench to the right (so vices are next to each other -...

    What is the optimal workbench length for you

    Thank you. It was shot early in the morning when just a hint of light was passing through upper glass door window, which made this lightning setup. I have two windows facing west, so that I do not have too much heat generated through the day.

    Mechanical pencil alternative

    Thank you very much Gossi for your recommendations, I will check out those pens with fine points for my woodworking. However, I did not have a good experience with fountain pens from my childhood. Every now and then, it would randomly create a big splash of ink on the paper. I do not want this...

    Black streaks during hand planing

    Thank you very much all, you are right. This is air-dried oak (I am about to use it as my workbench top) and yesterday I trimmed 150 mm off. It has a moisture content of up to 15% near the center. I am again a bit wiser :)

    Black streaks during hand planing

    Hello, I have started to plane white oak and I have noticed black streaks on the wood. It looks like some metal contamination from my beloved no.5 hand plane. Also, the area behind the mouth continually turned black. I cleaned it with sandpaper but, it started turning black again. I have...

    What is the optimal workbench length for you

    I think I will leave it at 1.9m, as I need to trim the ends of the 2m slabs. Thank you.

    What is the optimal workbench length for you

    I want my bench not to only be functional, but also to be beautiful - as everywhere in life, I also look at aesthetics, not only functionality.

    What is the optimal workbench length for you

    I am just building my workbench and I was thinking about what length should I make it. My workshop is 4x4m, so the space is tight. I have oak slabs for top that are 2 m long, so that is my maximum length. I see that some people (a.k.a. Paul Sellers) have relatively short benches (it looks...

    Bench. Small is beautiful

    Very nice Jacob :) What is the material of that top yellow layer in the well? I see that you have it in both old and new workbench, so it must have some special purpose for you.
