If it's not too late why not install a steel beam with roller hoist so you can lift heavier pieces of work? It's a must in my next workshop; especially since I'm now a senior.

I'm in the middle of upgrading from a Scheppach saw to an old Wadkin. The Scheppach has been quite good but the rise & fall mechanism does get blocked up, even with the dust extractor connected and has to be taken apart to be properly cleaned. It's also difficult to set the blade parallel with...

Hi everyone. I need a user manual for a Scheppach spindle moulder model HF33. I bought my machine a few years ago and, though I've used it for simple mouldings, I haven't a clue what a couple of the accessories do. Also, for some reason, I seem to have two identical mitre guides which run...
