You did well, I had rooms of machines at college like that. At work, in our last building we had a floor were if the mains died we had to raise a call, the breakers were in a locked cabinet. We were 24*7 back then, the site guys did not like turning out at 2:30 on a Sunday morning. :roll:

Rob, I know you made it to hold that top, but I still don't really like the top, the woodwork is great, make a new top if that slips of and breaks? :whistle:

Jim, Have you posted pictures of this? We need to see how you did.

I see that your daughter already has you wrapped round her little finger, you have no hope of ever just doing what you want ever again. :shock: My granddaughter as well as her mum do it to me all the time. :roll:

Take a look here, I have not used them but I am looking for a spare set for my Multico, also slotted.

Blister is correct here, you need a 'C' type trip. The current you have worked out is the steady state run current, the start up surge can be 3 or 4 times that, for a short time. The 'C' rated trip will allow the surge to pass without tripping but still provide protection for an overload.

One way is to put it into thicknessing mode, insert 2 long bits of 4x2 (or bigger) though the machine and wind the table up so it clamps on them. Then support one end of them and lift the other, still not easy but with a little bit of ingenuity it is doable and should not strain any part of the...

I think I will just keep using it as wood burner fuel. :lol:

Gill, I now know one of the reasons I had so much trouble when I tried to do these, might even have another go armed with this extra info. :roll:

It's not a silly question! I have used double sided tape, don't leave it in place longer than necessary, take care removing it. If the template is home made then leave it over length to allow the thing to be clamped down. I have done some stuff where I routed one part and then added clamps to...

Bob, I gave away the table saw I had with a brushed motor, the only things I have with brushed motors are the mitre saw, routers and drills, sorry.

Best make that Wizer, supplier of badges.

Should I have been pretty? I was there and had a great time in the company of other like minded woodie's a good way to spend a Saturday. 8)

Dan, I have edited your post as 3 of the pictures were not showing, I hope I have selected the correct images. Nice work, I love the model on the real thing.

So you had your weetabix then, :D I am impressed and must be getting old, I would definitely have needed a large son to help with loading that lot. :oops:
