Re: Re-outfitting a 510 SS to table saw mode
My earlier question was regarding the tooth set on the thin kerf vs the full kerf.

Re: Re-outfitting a 510 SS to table saw mode
I think a "full" kerf blade would bind 'worse'.
How does the difference between kerf and blade plate dimension vary between a full/narrow kerf blade?n

Re: Moxon Vice for Mark V
Does it have a tendency to slip vertically when exerting downward force?
Those spt column clamps are somewhat wimpy(especially if not adjusted properly to tighten only against the columns.
Stop collars can help there.

Re: Re-outfitting a 510 SS to table saw mode
If ripping is thy goal, a general purpose(aka combination) blade is not a good choice. Ripping requires very large(deep) gullets to carry away the swarf.

Re: DIY Double Tilt Base Experiment
OK so I missed something! You initially asked about setting one up to perform under table functions(rearranging headstock/carriage/table). The answer is yes, but. The operator position moves to the other side of the base. The table height controls need to be reversed end to end.(The carriage orienta...

Re: DIY Double Tilt Base Experiment
Under table 'functions' require the ability to tilt to vertical towards the opposite(left) end. That is only possible with a double tilt machine. That is how the headstock/arbor... gets positioned under the table. It also requires reversing the table orientation in the carriage.

Re: Lubricating the main spindle
The spindle bearings do not require any lubrication. The bearings are sealed and lubricated for the life of the bearing.
That said the grease can over extended time 'dry' out. Replacement (of the bearings) is the 'solution'.
What does a dry bearing sound like?

Re: Proper techniques when using the planer?
I think(assuming the down side is 'done' planing(to dimension???) on the face repetitively with a final minimal cut is a good procedure.
That said the progress of the workpiece and the intermediate results may alter that to suit.
i.e. there is no 'always right' way.
