I just had a great day in Kansas City at Woodmaster

That’s what I call a field trip, So what was the problem with the 16/32? I hear a few problems here and there but nothing as to the machines performance. I know of a guy that tried to feed a 1 1/2” X 30” glued up table top through it 6’ long and bent the top drum but he was some how able to get it back in shape and love the machine…

Good luck with your new machine. I can’t say anything but good for my Performax 22/44. Took me only about
15 minutes to tune up and hasn’t needed adjustment in over 4 years. Oh, well.

Sandhill,

I just don’t seem to be able to get the drum parallel to the table. I get it there, and then tighten the four bolts, and it is out again. I just don’t like a tool I have to fuss with. Woodmaster said that if their machine wasn’t accurate to .005 out of the crate, they would take it back, or come out and calibrate it.

I am glad you like yours Gary. I know MANY people do. I guess I am one of the weird ones.

They are great pepole to deal with over there. I enjoy my 25” 4-in-1 machine of theres. Hopefully soon I can add one of the sanders to may shop.

good luck with your new toy. do you mind telling how much you paid?

-- making sawdust....

Sorry about your experience with the drum sander. I don’t have one but I have been looking at either this one or the 22/44 (provided my wife will give me an advance on my allowance). I will be interested in seeing your review of the Woodmaster.

Wow. I didn’t realize they were so close to me! I feel like I need to get my field trip on now.

-- Happy Ripping!!!

Againstthegrain, You must have a defective one in some way although .005 is close it sounds like yours is out more then that. What plane is it out on? have you tried shims?

Sandhill,

I have tried everything. BUT, I am going out to try one more time. If I can’t get it aligned, up for sale it goes.

I would like to go there but, it would be a 15 hour drive each way.
