    Mike instead of drilling holes in box, don't you think it would have be better to build a dolly for it? Whereby you take out the compressor on the wooden plank and rest that on a 4 wheel wooden dolly that fits in same box if space permits or separate or in another case? Oh the same ma,it's dolly that carries the pack out the wooden frame can sit on that?

    Mike, how did you start your carpentry experience? Now, if you are to look back with your carpentry experience how would you tell yourself to commence into a carpentry lifestyle? How would you recommend One to commence at 25, 30 , 35, 40, 45, and 50 years old?

      I just bumped into it, without getting into too many details. I tried to leave a few times, but just didn't like the alternatives. So I guess I am a carpenter. As to how to get in to it. It's easy, just look for a job. Work for someone and learn about what they do. Do that with a couple different positions. That will give you an idea of if you'd like to really dive in and become a carpenter.

    The problem with the squareness is your insert. Take the insert out and check with a large square. You may have gotten a bad table, but for most woodworkers, The problem you describe or as described is about 1/256 of an inch and also, if the piece is against the fence and the table at the fence, the problem would be, well, solved or rescued further. Not sure how that problem truly works out on a cut for even the finest furniture. Or, maybe I didn’t understand the math you were describing.

      @@MikeFarrington not a question, just a comment or observation. I checked my table after I watched your video and made some cuts to see if it matters whether the table is off by 1 35000th, or less than a 256th and could not find any issue with accuracy of my cut that will affect my fine furniture projects. We could take out tables to a machinist and have the tables decked to within 1 10,000th but it would not be worth the cost. I guess my conclusion is that I don’t think anyone should concern themselves with a table off by 1 35,000th. Thanks for the videos.

    For goodness sakes this drill press can't be compared to a home unit because this was an industrial piece of equipment when it was built. In todays money that thing would be thousands and no home shop could afford it. It's like comparing apples and oranges. That machine was designed for production or hard use so if you want to compare the quality you would get for that same drill press would be significantly better. Just the modern bearing tech alone is eons better.

    Mike. I’ve pondered getting the lamello classic for case goods construction, like you show here. The top 21 is pretty pricy and close to the zeta p2. Are you still using the lamello as a first choice for case side construction? Would you have chosen the classic for price or zeta p2 for versatility if you were buying a lamello now? I’m hard pressed to spend the money for a biscuit jointer but it beats the domino for speed, and the less necessity for dust collection. I’ve see Darrell Peart use it in some of his case construction and now see you using it. Is it still a major player in your tool kit for case and drawer construction?

    • @MikeFarrington
      @MikeFarrington 17 днів тому

      I've been using it for over 20 years. I'm not changing now anytime soon. If I was buying today I would go for the Zeta p2. To my understanding it works as a normal Top21, but then can also be used with the knock down fasteners. It is a lifetime tool, in 10 years, when it's still working perfectly, you won't remember spending the extra money on it.
