Powertec Planer knives...should I buy them?
WEBSep 1, 2011 — I just installed a set of Powertec blades in my Ridgid planer a few days ago. I've run about 125 bf of rough white pine through and they seem to be holding an edge just fine. With the Ridgid blades, I would've flipped them already. I would buy the Powertec blades again, especially since HD doesn't carry them anymoe and are always out of …
Review of Powertec T-Tracks - Save 50% over Rockler T-Tracks
WEBJul 24, 2018 — Powertec - T-Tracks (Rating: 5) Apparently, I misunderstood the "review" category. So please forgive me for only pointing to my YouTube video. Here's a more comprehensive review. The only t-tracks I've used in the past have been from Rockler. 3/4" wide, 3/8" thick, and made from aluminum. They work great, and if you buy them on …

Makita & Powertec track saw rail compatability
WEBNov 23, 2021 — LBD. We use a Powertec track with a Makita saw at the cabinet shop I work for. It works well; as for an actual comparison of the two, they seem about the same in my experience. I haven't actually tried comparing both tracks side by side, but I do know that they are both compatible with the Makita saw. Hope this helps!

WEBNov 6, 2021 — sawdust66 Discussion starter. 108 posts · Joined 2021. #1 · Nov 6, 2021 (Edited by Moderator) I'm about to take the plunge and get the Makita 36v track saw, and when I started looking at rail options I see Powertec seems to be rated very well for people who have the Makita saw. I also noticed that Wen offers a rail set that is compatible as well.
Thickness Planers on a budget - WEN vs Bauer vs Triton?
WEBApr 24, 2020 — I'm interested in this too, because I'm still looking for a thickness planer and don't want to spend DeWalt 735X money. Wen and Bauer are two I've ruled out. Yes, Bauer is a Harbor Freight tool - which doesn't automatically disqualify it for me, but it certainly raises both eyebrows. Wen is a budget brand.
CBN wheels/sharpening in general - LumberJocks Woodworking …
WEBOct 24, 2016 — The CBN are quite a bit heavier than the friable wheels, you need more HP for them to spin up. The hubs of the wheels have to seat up square agains a shoulder, and the arbor length than has to be long enough to have the nut threaded on, some grinders do not have a machined shoulder, so that will be a problem.
Anyone using the Jessem Powertek router motor?
WEBMar 27, 2018 — The MLCS 9564 3-1/4 HP Variable Speed Router is the same exact router as the jessem router, so assuming MLCS make there own router then that would mean they make the jessem router. Compare the 2 routers pics and even tools everything is the same, and I dont believe in coincidences least not more than 1.
