Nice. Heavy? Maybe a General?

I bought the stuff from Federated tools in Lodnon, ON, actually from David
F. E on this very group but honestly I'm having a"moment" becuase I can't
remember the name of the sander for the life of me. All I can say is it's
heavy... Once I figured out that it's not a planer, and got a heavy dust
collector it worked great. I also found out that the once the sand paper is
shot you can soak it in a bucket of hot water and give it a quick pressure
wash, everything is nice and clean again.

I wonder if my wife would notice it in the dish washer ;-)

Nice move.

What sander and how is it working out?

Glad someone mentioned cutting the feathers on an angle, I probably would
have forgot. I was hoping to make a fingerboard that could be mounted in
the
middle of the planer and then used on both sides. In order to do this the
fingers would need to be straight, not cut on an angle, what do you
think?
Do they need to be angled? I'm not to worried about kick back.

P.S. I didn't end up ordering the Woodmaster molder, I ended up getting a
25" dual drum sander and planner/molder for the same price as the
woodmaster. That saves me from constantly changing the drums and the
stuff I
bought is really industrial. I ended up with a Powermatic PM15 / 5hp. I
made
the bed board out of some great / slippery stuff that we had in the
shop...

I need to make a 27" long feather board for use with my planner/molder
and
was wondering if someone could tell what wood is the best? Do I need to
cut
into the grain length or can I cut across it?
