So if you had a hundred pounds for software I would say keep free sketch up and pay for cut list. Or buy yourself a nice new plant Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

Ok, components are ok for pieces that are exactly the same so when you modify say one leg all four change in the same way. However when it's not a component make it a group. The cutlist can work if you bear it in mind whilst drawing. I was merely pointing out that for optimal layout there are...

The easiest way I know is to set camera to top, front etc, set view to parallel projection and then print. I'm not aware it does elevations etc for you automatically. I don't know any woodworker that bought it so you should be ok. I have done complex projects from a complete house to kitchen...

I agree with connecting both with blast gates and auto take off, saves lots of time and ensures use. The air filter, well I don't have one, I open a window and get a through breeze to take it all away. In my new shop I don't have through movement so I might get one. The microlene 760 sounds...

Yes that should be fine for your needs. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

Nice to see the progress Steve, on all fronts, and wonderful of people to pitch in. Just a quick note on those powerline adaptors mentioned a few pages ago. They seem like magic, but they also screw up long wave signals for kilometres around, and amateur radio groups are trying to get them...

The pipes for electrics and dust extraction are laid. Concrete coming in a few weeks. Just time to lay this large pile of insulation! Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

I had to take everything apart to get in there, including switch, and one screw held the earth on, so then had to take wiring box apart and then work out where wires went, and the crimped clip came off, and it's becoming long story.... However i did need to elongate. Good use for a dremmel.

Or elongate the hole on the left to a slot... that might be better

I have a Scheppach wet grinder, for my turning tools, and was looking to use it for planer blades and my #80 cabinet scraper. So far all the Tormek jigs have fitted fine, however I have one that doesn't :( the planer guide has legs 9.2cm centres apart, and the Scheppach 10cm. I could make a...

Good info Nic. I think there are differences between airflow / pressure / volume / suction etc that all mean different things... I use my vac connected to 2.5" ducting system with adaptor to a 10cm port on my planer, which generates a lot of chips and it picks up most of them - still have to...

A cyclone before your dust extractor can save on bags and dust getting in your extractor motor. By performance do you mean that keeping your extractor clear means no loss of suction due to bags / extractors getting full?

I don't know many hobbiests that have the air filtration. Everybody has source collection. If you're on a budget - go for source. You can always open the garage door to air it!

My space was an 8' shed at the start, but if you get into it you may need to expand the dust collection regardless of the size of the workspace Scheppach used to be a good brand, gone downhill in some areas recently, however it does look quite good They are good for removing dust from air...

I believe the recordones are well thought of I have the makita It can be fitted with brown very fine dust bags, or cheaper white bags. It has auto take off, and is definitely in your price range. Here it's £230 My only problem was the price of bags, but i resolved that somewhat. Don't...

Ah, i answered you in the other thread ;-)

For a sander something like this http://www.axminster.co.uk/numatic-xp-2 ... ckage-deal which is cheap would work. It doesn't have the second level of filtration but would suffice. It also jas auto take off which means you'll actually use it, and will be forced to. A bandsaw produces mostly...

Will you use the extraction for any other machines? Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

Any "shop vac" would work for that sander, for sanding you probably want one with a hepa filter bag and a filter cartridge inside as the dust is very fine. Then as you find the dust bags expensive you might build a fein or cyclone separator and you enter a whole new world.... As long as you...

you have extraction hooked up right? I found with the clarke, that on the belt 90%+ is sucked away as the belt carries the dust around into the extraction part. on the disc it's not quite as good but I certainly don't have a lot of dust in the air. The draper looks to be very similar.
