No swivel base on this one! Jason just posted this on the Fireball Tool instagram page https://www.instagram.com/p/DPzo_jRkl9K/ edit: also on youtube.

Was on the Fireball website today and noticed that they have a stubby hardtail vise now. Clocks in at 90 lb. https://www.fireballtool.com/products/compact-hardtail-vise-6?variant=44832579485740

I have a baby 1.2 kW fiber laser (XTool MetalFab) so can't offer too much advice, but I would definitely go with an enclosed machine. From the one Laser cutter facebook group I'm in, Bodor seems to be the brand to avoid. What are you planning for compressed gas? I still need to get an 02...

The facebook marketplace gods have smiled upon me. Bought this from a couple who purchased it for their sign making business but didn't have room for it as their new garage shop (that was supposed to be built this summer) is still incomplete. They valued the floor space this occupied more than...

My main preference for the "new" Lista slides is that they are pretty much maintenance free. The low friction plastic wheels should never need lubrication for the life of the slide. What the actual life of the slide is remains to be seen, but some we have at work that are at least 15 years old...

Lista drawer slides changed from the welded carriage to separate slides some time around the late 2000's I think (2008 maybe?) From the research I've done, I'm fairly certain they are a variant of the Fulterer FR 7180 which are listed at a 200 kg (440 lb) capacity. I prefer this style over the...

Anyone have one or used one before? There is a Hammer A3 31 in great condition for sale near me locally and I am pretty intrigued by it. I've never owned a jointer or planer but have used a Grizzly planer and jointer at my day job before. The Hammer is a 12 inch machine, seems like plenty for...

My order also arrived today

I just learned about cape chisels today browsing the closeout section lol. They are used for cutting grooves for keyways. For 3 bucks a pop I figured I better get every size just in case. I'm sure I'll use one at least once in the next 10 years 😛

Order #19448 is in. Happy HJE day!

Big Lista fan here. I have 9, looking for at least 2 more to fill out the back wall. The only one purchased new is the dark blue one which is from their Technician Series (which is mostly the same as their standard cabinets aside from fancier looking casters, glossy paint, and a different style...

Looks like we'll be seeing more of this design hitting the market from other vendors - GWeike is also coming out with one. Intriguing about their design is having a C02 laser built in to the CNC base as well as being able to install the fiber laser head like the XTool. Also they will have two...

I really hope they make a slightly cheaper version of this that is just a fiber laser cutter. I have zero use for a laser welder, but a CNC fiber laser is high on my list of Things I Want in My Shop. I do a lot of sheet metal in the 18 - 11 gauge range, and rarely go over 1/4". I have an old...

I'm not a fine woodworker but rather a "good enough" woodworker. Baltic birch plywood is probably my favorite material to work with. Lotta pocket hole joinery in this stuff pictured here. I'm also a photographer so I know how to make my stuff look nicer than is actually is 😜 Cabinet for my...

Bought one of these for a project at work a couple weeks ago for $40 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0070YEEI8?tag=atomicindus08-20

Sounds like that particular Lista may still have the older style drawer slides (slides changed in 2007 or 2008 I think) The older style uses what are basically open race bearings that the grease eventually dries out on. Newer slides use hard plastic wheels which roll much more smoothly. The old...

This is the exact kind of feedback I was looking for, thank you!

I'm in the market for a mitering head bandsaw after running into capacity limitations with my Harbor Freight Hercules portaband in the benchtop stand. I don't want something too large, but I can comfortably fit a 5x6 saw in my space. It seems there are a couple options that are more or less...

I have a Coxreels LG series, only 10 1/2" tall, but it's limited to a 25' max hose length. https://www.coxreels.com/lg-series_8_83.html
