Beautiful Mikey !!! -Josh

You can go as high as you want Frank. I just typically don't have much in the way of belts beyond 220 I've heard some folks going up to 1200x on theirs -Josh

Awesome score Frank. Pretty easy to use. It's a good idea to block your parts in with some thin scrap bits. A sharp 50 grit will take a .010 pass. I usually will do .005 each pass unless I'm really wanting to thin the stock. I transverse .050 on the crossfeed which is half a turn on my...

I had to use a double breaker to get a 220v line myself. I only needed 1 because I had an open spot in the box still. I'd put two doubles in without worrying about it but I'm with Andrew in that I would not load the box full of them. I'd add a sub panel and rewire my shop in heartbeat if...

Sounds like you know where you're going. I won't say it's impossible to run them inline. BUT the calculations for how much draw you're putting on that breaker are best left to a real electrician. Even with the proper calculating done I still wouldn't recommend doing it because the draw on an...

IMHO it's not a good idea to run multiple 220v tools "inline" What you can do is wire a plug onto the VFD. This way you can unplug the VFD and plug in say a welder or something else that is SINGLE phase 220v. I did not do it this way and hard wired my VFD from the breaker so I can ONLY run...

No problem Eddie. In case you haven't run across it yet check out the Master List thread. It's a sticky in the WIP forum. -Josh

I've never had it ground but know the do offer it. Give them a call on the price. I've got a surface grinder so I do my own. -Josh

Stunning Randy ! -Josh

Just an FYI, If you order directly from Aldo you can get your steel surface ground. Probably a good way to go for stock removal knives. -Josh

Teter09, Bring those tools with you on the next trip and we'll bang something out. I'll provide the leather and show you a Sandy Morrissey sheath.

I agree with these guys. No need to start out high end with this stuff. I've never used any of the high end stamps but have seen friends. They are higher quality than tandy and some of the ones I've looked the were possibly CNC cut or something for super crisp definition where Tandy are cast...

Beautiful Work KT ! I've said before and I'll say it again. You've got a heck of an ARTIST's eye ! Colors, textures, lines, craftsmanship. It all just WORKS ! -Josh
