Re: Losing shop space and a 3 SS Dilemma

Every time I downsize I feel better about it. Like many I would acquire lots of tools just in case I needed to do something in a certain way. It becomes a never ending practice. Every year I ask myself, what can I get rid of. It can be a good thing, downsizing.

Re: Tilting the 520 the other way…

With double tilt you also loose the ability to keep attachment tools on your SS when converting. For me I like leaving the bandsaw on the machine all the time. Even the belt sander.

Re: Old bandsaw attachment

I like the older table better. You don't have to remove it when going to drill press mode. And you can use the miter guage as a fence. You will need to add a cut out for dust collection.
