Yes there are couple shorties for sale right now, a little too high priced but I will keep my eyes open! I like that option because then you could set up the other side as a horizontal boring machine which would be very useful. It's a wait and keep checking game now

Thanks for the answer, that's what I was afraid of, that the directional change would be an issue.i didnt want to run them at the same time, just wanted to not have to switch them every time I wanted to use the other. I wonder if getting a power station for the bandsaw would be cheaper than just ...

Hi,

I am trying to figure out if I can use my joiner and bandsaw at the same time.
Could I remove the main table and mount a drive hub on the opposite side of the headstock to run the bandsaw? The upper drive hub and the "saw side" are at almost the same level, am I missing something that would ...

Greetings!
Newbie question here: I took off the metal drive hubs from the headstock and of course didn't pay attention to the fact that it looks like there is a right and wrong direction for the top metal hub. I'm trying to set up the bandsaw, two questions, I'm sure the answers should be obvious ...

Has anyone had problems removing the legs from a 510 table? If I drive the pin out will they come out easily or am I likely to damage the tie bar? I think that dusty did this before. Bob

Oh my goodness that is EXACTLY what I need!!!!!! I sent you my email in a PM, lets work something out

This has been an amazing first experience in this forum, you are all pretty darn amazing.

Thanks Ed, you make very valid points about buying used (Which obviously I just found out) I love your table system! I think I'll be keeping the extra table around for sure now

I'm trying to decide whether to play with the lathe or the bandsaw first... choices choices!

Thanks, yes I've been watching this, I'm hoping to get lucky on Craigslist so I don't have to pay the $60/$35 shipping
