I understand that on a woodworking forum my approach may be a bit extreme but I made a set of gauge blocks out of hardwood.

I would like to say I am pleased to help but all I have done is muddy the waters . I think that in their latter years Kity became the British Leyland of woodworking machines in that they tried to keep up with things trying to bring out new models while using up the parts from previous models. We...

This is a bit of a strange one. The side upper guides on my 613 are the same as yours but the rear guide is a bearing. Looking in the parts list it shows all 3 upper bearings being the same and that is what you have got.

To Lons. I am in no way trying to say you are wrong infact I think it is good how much time you spend trying to help people with these older machines. The point I have been trying to make is that it would not matter if you had been head of design for Kity during the 1980's and 90' without...

We all like nice tools but sometimes we just don't need them. I have recently finished a massive diy project I needed a concrete breaker that would be used on and off over a period of time so that would have made hiring one every time I needed it very expensive. I purchased a cheap 15kg Titan...

The machine that you have shown in the photo with the table saw on it is the exact machine that I own. I have no doubt that you have a lot of knowledge of Kity machines but I think my knowledge is of older machines that I own and predate a lot of items that you respond to. The machine I own does...

Dull blades maybe, taking off to much in one go and lack of chip extraction.

After a life time in the motor trade I hate torx with a passion pozi for me.

You say you retired from joinery and making kitchens a year or two ago and makes me a bit shy about trying to help you. I am a retired vehicle mechanic but have owned an old Kity machine that I think may be the same as yours although it seems that many people with these old machines call them...

You will need a dial gauge to find out if it is the new blade, the arbour , the arbour bearings or the arbour washers that are at fault.

Why have you decided to stop using D4 in favour Titebond?

At last someone with knowledge has told you the problem.

This is a great time to own a scroll saw even the cheapest of the cheap. Get the young ones to draw or paint a picture stick it to any off cut of what ever you have and cut out a jigsaw. Whirlygigs are also a simple project that they will enjoy, they can be involved in the design and making and...

The reason I was not interested in your item was that it looks to be in very poor condition and has essential parts missing making it useless in my opinion. I am still looking for the right one if anybody has one.

Dont know what went wrong with my last post. My advice is not to grind metal with wooden jigs in a wood work shop with saw dust and shavings around.

All due respect to you for posting a photo of your bench that is in the same state that most of us have.

Same here. I really enjoyed last year and have been looking forward to going again this year but may not be able to at the new date. I guess that this could be a problem for some of the suppliers who rely on shows like this to drive sales forward during the year. I wonder if they will offer what...

Of late I have used a few small brass screws. I have looked at the suppliers you have recommended and cant see them. My supplier of choice ProKraft. Good range of products and reliable service.

If sale of item 4 ie Stanley no5 in box falls through for any reason I would like to buy it from you.
