I got these for Christmas what did you get?

[sw130p]

Yes it's one of those things that you don't think you'll use but will find very useful

 

[Iceclimber]

No Festools but i got plenty of new tools.

Mostly hand tools

Well a couple weeks ago i purchased myself a early gift.

Oh and i hear a Bad Axe dovetail saw is in the mail for me also, eek!

A Lie-Nielsen and a Veritas bench chisel.

Just curious , what do you mean it wasn't installed properly ?

[member=1584]joiner1970[/member] The fence isn't centered on the carriage , it was installed too far too the left (thus the gap on the right).  Since it's so far to the left, dead center is outside of the adjustment range for the clear window on top.  THe pivots are held in place with 2mm set screws but they're cranked down so tight that they can't be loosened (or they use a loctite type compound that requires heat to break.  Apparently I'm not the only one, seems like there are quite a few people with the same issues and Festool has them send the tool back.

It is difficult to see the offset in the photo. The cutter does not come to rest dead centre of course.

There's a larger gap in one side in the red circled area isn't there?

Wow that's some nice kit you got there, how'd you like your Felder?

 

[Iceclimber]

So far i like the shaper quite a bit. I have yet to really use it to be honest. Soon though very soon. The cutters are a fortune so getting set up to a tually use is will take some time.

I also have a brand new AD941 that although i like very much i am having big problems with!

I have FD250 slot mortiser that is sweet and a RL125 dust collector that kicks butt!

Sorry to hear about that AD941. Nothing is more frustrating. It's a beauty though I was going to ask how you do anything without a planer. I didn't recognize that number. I have an AD741. It's nice, I'm wondering what you have that I don't, does it reach out and place the board on the table for you?  [smile] I may have to trade now. [scared]

To say the least I was stunned.  She was looking at Festool however realized I already own most of them. Her reason was simple. Build me that dream house........

I got a Glock 42, sweet pistol.

You would think right.

No its mostly more robust castings and base. The tables have the prisims, the fence has the option for the handle to adjust the angel. The planer tables have the cast F style lip for extension tables as apposed to a bolt on bracket type.nthe planer tables moves on four spindles as apposed to two.

The handles used to raise and lower the tables are stainless and all fancy lol..

Thats pretty much it i think. As im told it is a old Format4 machine rebranded.

Well, you didn't mention it was a ceiling mount. That saves a lot of floor space. [big grin]

Wife got me a Konosuke Fujiyama Blue #2 Gyuto 210mm with matching Saya.

At least most of the food prep.  I have been upgrading my kitchen knife collection over the past year and they sure are producing some very nice hand forged knives!

In addition to the Konosuke Fujiyama I also got a few of the  Teruyasu Fujiwara knives and a "laser Konosuke HD2" which I just sliced two fingers with a few nights ago.
