I could not find the manual on vm. I found a similar model, but not quite the same one. I am nervous about buying one, without seeing the size in black and white. How did you find that?

Hello, I recently picked up an old Craftsman Commercial horizontal bandsaw. The tag says model number 101 22923 and the serial number is 2148. I measured, and it seems like around 66”, but I want to be sure. Also don’t know what the height is (1/4”, 3/8”, etc). Everything seems to work great...

C96: D911967 What's yours?

If the CMP wanted it the way you think it is (C96) they would have worded it in such a way, to allow NO interpretation. Read it again, and you will see what I mean. I teach code for the IBEW, and we see these wordings throughout the code many times.

I apologize for being an idiot yesterday. But...... Where I'm from (Cleveland) everyone recognizes a feeder as the true meaning of a feeder. I understand the code section calls it out as "supplying the entire load" but then it reads on to say "associated with a one family dwelling" the...

If the workshop (not garage) is on a residentially zoned piece of property, than it falls under dwelling unit premise wiring. Btw

If it's three wire, it is still a service entrance conductor. Diesel!

Explain what a feeder is, diesel dummy? ( maybe you should stick to being a diesel mechanic!!!) lol

2-2-2-4 al direct burial is correct for the garage feeder. The exterior 100a outdoor disconnect is correct as long as it is clearly marked, and the tap is done in the panel with lugs "listed for the purpose". The #4 ground in the quad-plex needs to be landed in the ground bar in the disconnect...

I have a single stage 40gal upright speedaire compressor. I use it for everything, and never run out of air. Just my two cents.

I am an Industrial Journeyman Electrician, and I use the Knaack war wagon as a rolling toolbox/workbench from site to site. Weighs a ton, so I can't move it myself from site to site. I have to call the shop to send out the stakebody. The work surface is very handy, I have a vise mounted on one...

:shocking: Anyone? :shocking:

I use Irwin bits at work frequently, and they seem to last forever. I think the key is not to let them get real hot.
