Re: New Generation 2 PowerPro Headstock Touchscreen

Can't really see anything on that zoomed in picture-what are all those functions? What I don't see is a separate Run"/ "Stop" type button on like on the PowerPro 1.0 I already think these should be more prominent. If they are completely missing in 2.0..its a "no" for me. May...

Re: Latest My Growth Rings installment

I like Mikes assessment.

Hard to tell where a youtuber ends, and a real person begins but I think Mike falls clearly on the "real person" side of this one.

Re: Depth Indicator

I think thats right, its atleast how I use mine. I don't 100% trust that in "free to rotate" mode, it accurately represents plunge depth...so i always

Re: This dont feel right..

I found a way I was more comfortable with using the overhead router mode on the SS.

This dont feel right..

Trying to think of a way to clean out those corners in a circular way. I would use the 2x4 backstop to limit how far I could push the "cross" into the bit, and then the right 2x4 as a guide to run along. It just feels like -pardon the pun - all hell's gonna break loose though. Having a day...

Re: Question why do you want to know the RPM of your Headstock

Having started with powerPro, I came in not knowing any speed settings needed for each SPT. The sticker label listing the recommended RPMs was great back then when I hadnt internalized the values. The reported RPM on the LCD display in agreement with the label confirmed for me I had setup correctly ...

Re: Fluffy shavings and 3300

Similar issue on my Jet 600 when using planer or jointer. I added a cyclone separator ahead of the inlet and this solved the problem.
As well, it reduces the number of times I need to empty my dust collector bag..albeit now I empty my seperator cannister more :)
