    Hi Fabry bit confused on the question. The extractor and the bandsaw are not connected they operate independently. If they look like they are connected that’s more luck than set up. Not sure what you mean about the upper wheel?

    Hi. very nice built... i love oak as well - one of my favorite wood to work with. i dont understand the hype about walnut all the time. I also like using Larch wood doing things wit it. It seems that you are in UK - suprised that your are working in metric system. The feeds - i think they fits very well in hight to my taste. Btw - i like the quick run-through with the voice over videos... thanks for sharing.

    Hi, last week I also got my FB 510. Yesterday I tried to get it working. Unfortunately, every time, the tires (green ones like yours) come off the wheels. Have you perhaps had a similar problem? Were the rubbers at your place glued to the wheels?

  • @woodworkgeek
    @woodworkgeek3 ай бұрын

    Hi, no I didn’t have this problem for me they have not been any sort of problem. I did read about something similar to this on older machines that had a defect in the tyres which felder replaced on request. Is the machine new or old? If it’s old would contact them for a replacement set. They were too loose from memory which would give the same issue you’re seeing. I think they are friction fit not glued on. Hope you get it sorted soon as the bandsaw is an awesome bit of kit when it’s set up. Mark

    Have to be double careful with mdf the glue they use to make the mdf is particularly bad for the lungs so no such thing as being too careful which is one reason I like to work more with hardwoods but even they can irritate if your not careful. There is a good reason I upgraded to a jcdc 2 cyclone extractor to get more of the dust each time works great on the machines with extraction need to at some point upgrade those without but it’s a expensive upgrade as I like quality tools and they break the budget right now

    Really nice box. Regarding shielding RF. That's tricky to do while it should look pretty. I'd go with the copper approach. Adding flexible conductive material at the seems to the lid. Should stop RF. Another way is to make a kind of labyrinth with two sheets from the bottom and one or two from the top overlapping each other. Not nearly as pretty as your current box though.
