The main purpose of the black plastic unit that you modified for the planer is to operate a microswitch when it's fixed above ( thicknessing) or below (planing). I found it a real pain so I short-Circuit the switch so that it's redundant. There is an increased saftey issue but no more than that from any other bladed machine in the workshop.
Hi David, just subbed, found you through comments on mine etc. Enjoyed this one, will have a look through your videos over time! You sound like you are from the same county as I originally came from before moving north😉. Cheers, Jon
When you’re trying to rip a cupped board you should use the bandsaw, it’s a lot safer than the tablesaw. It could bind and kick back easily, it’s just not a safe practice in general.
I agree lfernand plopsa Spray the bed with PTFE Lubricant (I use GT85), then use fine wire wool to clean the bed ways. Not necessary but I then use Peek metal polish and finally Finish off with a good coat of wax. Don't forget to also do the same for the bottoms of the banjo and tail stock.
Nice job thanks for sharing your time 🍺🍺👍👍
Thanks Brian 👍

Good to have you back David, Happy birthday to Tommy the cat.
Thanks Steve, I passed your birthday wishes on to Tommy 😀 👍
Try pastewax on that cast iron to treat it for longer lasting protection
Dave make sure you tuck your hoodie ties insite your top, if they get caught in the blades or even catch under top cover, you will be in a lot of pain
Thanks Garry, good bit of advice 👍

Don't use oil David on the lathe , use wax (it's thicker) 😉😉👍👍
