Years ago when I modified mine and did the tutorial here on WN, I did NOT change the clamping screw out. If yours is the original version then, on wider stock you can simply slide the back side out on the rods and lock it in place. Then when you want/need a narrow capacity just unlock and slide the side in on the rods.

I've got a picture somewhere...

Informative. Thanks.

Great tutorial. The mallets look nice too. You must have a never ending supply of that spalted pecan!

Someone on here was looking for some Swan bits. I don't remember who it was however. They look very interesting and stout.

Your scenario sounds a bit like mine. My shop is 12x30. You may not to be able to circumvent using conduit, but you can surface mount it.



I do have finished walls, but one is a partition from the rest of the basement. And the plan was to hang cabinets and other fixtures. At the end of the day, I do like the look of finished walls, but I did leave one concrete wall bare to minimize the narrowing. I did paint the bare concrete wall white to make it easier on the eyes.



This is my shop layout:



And perpetually a work in progress:

I always look forward to you posting new projects. No one does it better than you. Ken

I built a down draft table that I also let run as an air cleaner when I'm done in the shop.

Very nice!

That joint looks great!

How do you prevent the edges of SYP from crumbling? The stuff I have must be 30-percent pitch and the rest molded sawdust. We rarely see Southern Pine here in the Pac. N.W. What I have is an HD special on short clears.

Cle-ver!
