And you can run the 1800 RPM motor at 3600 RPM. Win/Win

An 1800 RPM motor is a 4 pole and will offer more torque. The VFD will allow you to run the 1800 motor at 3600.

Glad you like them! Have a merry Christmas and a safe and prosperous new year!

I thought I posted this the other day, but with my poor internet it maybe didn't go through. I got a cool box of goodies from Gliden07. First was a bundle of brass pin stock. Second were some cool acrylic scales. I'm not usually much for the modern scales, but these are really cool and almost...

I have a Boss also, and while it works better than hand stitching, it is very temperamental as Ed said. My next big purchase will likely be a Cobra or Cowboy. I've heard great about both.

What are you looking for? What price range?

To all the Guild members, a long time tradition here at Knife Dogs has been the Christmas Exchange. I fell asleep at the switch this year, and thankfully Dennis Moreland picked up the ball and ran with it. Go to the Knife Dogs Main Forum and join the exchange. It's a great way to get to know...

I'm in!. Sorry I missed your message. I was just coming to the forum to post the exchange because I forgot all about it. You are more than welcome to take it over, but if you want me to do it I will. The time just got away from me this year. I'm also happy to help you with it if needed.

Thanks for chiming in Tomtek. I'm not a fan of all the guards either, but I understand why they are there. One thing I've learned about grinders is that a feature that one person hates, another person loves. We all learn on different machines and have different experiences with the machines and...

I'm working on the first newsletter which will go out in December. We are planning on having member interviews, Guild news and I was hoping to have one or two columns written by members. If you have something you could write about, please write something up and get it to me ASAP. I'm also...

Yes they are 3ph 1/2hp 56c Marathons. $40 each. My current disk grinder is 1hp but I think these 1/2 hp will work good for the higher grits.

These are not liquid cooled, and don't have the ability to be. From my reading, liquid cooled are a separate animal, same as fan cooled is different. These are designed to dissipate heat through the shaft and housing.

I've always used TEFC enclosures for motors, but I have a chance to buy some 1/2 hp TENV motors I was thinking of using for disc grinders. I read that TENV motors are usually hooked up to pumps and use the liquid they are pumping as a heatsink through the shaft to help cool the motor. I'm...

VSM are great and cheap

I get mine from KJ magnets. I've never tested one brand against another. I have a feeling they all come from the same factory in China.

I like anyone that calls us blokes!

Welcome to Knife Dogs!

If I can get your regular email, I can send you the bylaws draft that we have. The IRS was helpful by giving you an exact phrase to have in your bylaws to help get 501c(3) status.

We had a local guy that did a lot of Lichtenberg burning and was an expert, and made one mistake. His wife found him dead in his workshop. Please be careful.

As Chad said the secretary needs to keep minutes from the meetings, along with all important documents (ie. Tax records, permits, licenses etc.)
