Hiatachi has a good name for power tools, I have had a bench saw for 3 years and so far it has been great

The Coffee Shop / Its arrived

My new saw arrived yesterday afternoon, I unpacked it, took about an hour by the time all the carton was cut down to a managable size, it was fully assemble apart from adjustable legs, today I made a stand for it and have screwed it to the top, it is a very smooth saw to use, I cut some animal families out of 27ml. thick MDF and it powered through it no trouble, the lifting top arm will also be very useful, the only thing I have found is it has no dust port, have put something on to take some of the dust away but it will need something better, will post some pics when I get time

The Coffee Shop / Re: Pictures updated

Hi Cherie thanks for sharing the rest of your pics, there is some really brilliant stuff there it's hard to know where to start, how many people would attend a Picnic like that?, is it open to the public? and how much dio you pay to see a show like this/.
I went a symposium in NZ a couple of years ago and it was about $350 for the week end but that included accomodation and all meals plus they had a good team of demonstrators from over seas as well as local, it was very intense but a great W/E, as no doubt yours was
