    Machinery/ tool dilemma

    i dont think thats possible, im not saying it wouldn't be useful as it gives a better cut than the bandsaw, but i just dont think i can fit it in, im going out there now so ill get some photos........i do need some organisation ideas though ;)

    Machinery/ tool dilemma

    that was the reason i bought the table saw in the first place, not being able to rip anything smaller than the width of the track on a track saw. although today i made some fill-in strips to replace fire strip in a door frame, it was much safer to do it on the band saw and a couple of swipes...

    Machinery/ tool dilemma

    i could cut thin stips on the bandsaw, i couldnt fit anything of any decent size on the current table saw anyway. I agree i may have 1 or 2 more than i need :)

    Machinery/ tool dilemma

    my big thing i guess is what i'm missing out on if i lose the table saw. crosscutting i can do on the mitre saw, rips i can do on the bandsaw and grooves/rebates i can do on the router table. i cant fit sheets of anything on the table saw and i use a tracksaw and mft for sheet goods.

    Machinery/ tool dilemma

    I specifically got the bandsaw with the capability of resawing wide boards, it also takes a lot less room than a decent size table saw. as I said I only have the bosch GTS 10, but thats a significant enough space where a PT could live

    Machinery/ tool dilemma

    i think the difference in size between a lunchbox type thicknesser and a cast iron planer/thicknesser is considerable in a small space. right now my thicknesser doesn't really have a spot to live and im a bit of a neat freak so it bugs me. I wonder how much I would even use the small table saw...

    Machinery/ tool dilemma

    So far mainly small boxes and tables in hardwoods which i now get from tylers (sawn), I have everything here on wheels to move around and it's all at the same height as my mft for infeed/outfeed if required. for sheet material I use a tracksaw,

    Machinery/ tool dilemma

    I wonder if you chaps could help my current issue. After my bandsaw delivery, I find myself having a wee problem. I want a planer/thicknesser.... however with only a single car garage (admittedly quite a large one) I just don't have the room. Now im yet to experience all that my new bandsaw...

    HEEELLPP!! Bandsaw tripping breaker

    they got a lot of bloody sneks n spiders though! Either way it all worked out and everything tested fine. I do wonder though, what kind of electrics others have on domestic supplies. I imagine at some point im going to need to upgrade mine. i couldn't believe one of the small(er) cyclones...
