    Rikon 10-345 18" Bandsaw 1.0

    The symptoms: Upon starting, I heard a couple of click… and the bandsaw died. The motor didn’t make a humming sound. It was as if I hadn’t plugged the bandsaw to power. I placed the repair instructions (that worked for me) in the attached file. Your milage may vary. You have to download the...

    Bandsaw goes click-click, click-click --- and dies

    Hi all, I have a Rikon 10-345 bandsaw that I bought second had some time ago. I tried (miserable failure) to resaw some maple over Christmas. The board was about 6" -- which I didn't think would be a problem for an 18" bandsaw. So... I watched a few YouTube videos and replaced the tires...

    New Laguna 12" Jointer - Motor to be installed in California

    Hi everyone, I just purchased a Laguna 5HP 12" jointer and am being told it will ship after they install the motor in California. That seems a bit odd, is that normal? I am a little worried they will ship a unit that has previously been returned. Has anyone been in this situation or ordered...

    What switch do I need for my lathe?

    I have an old Goodell Pratt bench lathe to which I'm attaching a 3 speed motor. So I need off/on/on/on (off/low/med/high).

    110V VFD for a 3/4HP motor?

    I was lucky enough to buy Wayne's PM 1150A today :). It currently has a 3PH 3/4 HP Leeson motor on it. My options are to either replace the motor with a 110v motor, add a static phase converter or add a VFD. Right now I am leaning toward a 115v VFD that can drive 1HP...

    Where Can I Purchase a Motor for Furnace in Raleigh?

    We discovered a mysterious burning smell earlier today. Turns out is was coming from the registers. The furnace fan would not come on. I have a direct drive system, so it couldn't have been a belt. After a fun trip through the crawl space I removed the side panel of the furnace. I...

    1/3 HP 1075 RPM Motor for Spindle Sander?

    What say you? I have a condenser fan motor and needed a spindle sander this weekend. Was thinking about a shop-made one. Looks like most of the ones on the market are powered by 1/4 1750 RPM or so motors. Would I miss the 700 RPMs if I made it a 1:1 gear ratio?
