Hi Bob Not exactly what you want but this London company use an alternative fitting http://www.theconcealedbedcompany.co.uk/index.html might be worth contacting them to see if they sell the mechanism on its own. Jon

Just remembered about this forum which I think i am a member off. http://finance.dir.groups.yahoo.com/group/MiniMax-USA/ You may get help with the manual or setting up etc. Jon

Can you plunge cut with one of these type of cutters? Jon

You could try contacting SCM for a manual. They have emailed me pdfs in the past for my minimax sander. http://www.scmgb.co.uk/en/ Jon

I agree looks better. I was also thinking the back may be a bit on the high side judging from the scale of the seat the back looks like it would be above head hight and may look better dropped to shoulder type height. Jon

Hi Pintglass I think the saw will handle a 2100X600 panel fairly easily. You will only be able to crosscut it however as the sliding table will only do about a 1400mm crosscut even though they call it a 2.1m rail. If you are cutting these size panels regularly you cant beat a full size sliding...

Initial concepts look good. I think the seating part of the chair could do with sloping to the back a bit and the back rest is a little upright. This is a similar idea which shows what I mean about sloping the seat back. http://www.taunton.com/finewoodworking/ ... px?id=5119 Jon

Hi Pintglass I used to use a 4010 with sliding table and while cutting long and heavy workpieces the sliding table did tend to deflect a little. . Under normal use on small to medium furniture components the saw was very accurate. I notice you can know get an outrigger which should help stop the...

I think Timber Team have a good reputation for refurbishing machines doing the job properly rather than just a quick coat of paint. Jon

Details here John http://www.timber-team.com/ There are a few others around leicester I got some machines from R&J Machinery at Mallory Park. Jon

Sounds like the blades are not set level to each other. Other posibility is blunt blades. jon

I dont have a great need for a edgebander but have been considering this one which can do up to 3mm abs edging http://www.ney.co.uk/machines/new-produ ... pm2000.htm Jon

I would agree with you there Brad. I have been investing in and upgrading my workshop since i started 8 years ago. I have now got to the stage where i have got everything I need apart from maybe an edgebander and CNC router. Oh well another few years hard work then. Jon

Very nice shop there Bob. It looks well set out and uses the space well and I like the timber rack ideas. Do you have a Bandsaw?. I think I would have made do with one van though and bought an Altendorf :D . Jon

Good idea Bob. I have 3 phase in my workshop but a few years ago I nearly moved to a workshop with no 3 phase power. I researched the options for a while and found it to be quite confusing so a tutorial would be a good addition to the forum. I used to have my workshop behind a motor rewinders...

Hi Mark I have 2.1m rail and sliding table from a scheppach saw kicking around the workshop gathering dust. I am pretty sure they are the same design as the one for the spindle moulder but i am not 100% sure. I would be willing to sell this if it fits your machine. Jon

Hi Graham try here for grain fillers in lots of different shades http://www.morrells-woodfinishes.com/products/wood/13 They have branches around the country. Jon

Hi John last time I was in there they still had it. Jon

Hi John I presume you mean the brand name modern. From the pieces I have seen It looks well made and solidly built. Not in the same league as wadkin but on a par with multico and startrite ie solid machines for the small workshop. What have you seen Planer Thicknesser? Jon

Teak Veneer is still available so you could have panels pressed in this. But it depends how much money you have got in the job. Another option would be cherry veneer with a little stain or tinted lacquer. I have just finished a job for a guy who makes really nice sailing yachts and he is still...
