Good Morning To All. I Have Visited Here For Some Time. I Really Enjoy Reading How You Guys Repair Or Enhance Your Machines. I Changed From Collector Cars To Woodworking In 87. Did Not Take Me Long To Realize I Can Wash Off The Saw Dust Easier Than Grease. I Purchased My 510, Bandsaw,jointer In 1987. I Upgraded To 520 And New Table For Bandsaw About 95? No Serious Trouble Since Purchased. I Retired From Telephone Engineering In April 2012 And Am Ready To Make More Sawdust. My Log In Name Is Bell, It Was Intended To Be Bellhead For Years In The Bell System. I Will Enjoy More Reading Of Your Posts. Thanks Ron

Welcome. My dad was a 39 year Bell Sys employee. I think you'll find folks ready to provide advice and help.

Welcome to the funny farm.

I retired from "195" and "295" in 1981 so I'm a "Bell Head" too.
