Old. The name is Plano. If you search for Plano vertical glue press you should find it.

Hey Jim, buy me a set too:)

Those are definitely cool! Being able to attach the whole set up to a vertical service is neat! Pricey though.

Yup but Bue can afford em:)

I'll make them out of 1x1s and all thread bolts:)

I have had mine for 25 years and they are good stuff. You can glue up thin panels and up to 10 cm thick and 100 cm wide. You can buy extention rails and clamps and make it as long as you want. You should not think so , but they can give very hard pressure.

Well i have been singing the palm sander blues the last few days having to send my high end mirka sander in for repairs. I bought this pneumatic sander last year about this time when the last one went hay wire, and haven't used it much....Well i brought it back out, blew the dust off it, and hooked up the air hose, only to get very slow rpms out of it.... I was disgusted... This is killing me here....

Well after cleaning it up and oiling it, i still couldn't get it to go faster than about 400 rpms.... Then i bumped this little knob that was kinda hidden, and she came up to about half speed........ As i got to messing with it i realized there was a speed control on this damn thing and i didnt even know about it. I had always regulated the speed with the palm pressure and didn't even know there was a speed control knob on it.... Boy did i feel stupid...

So I'm up and running again!

Roy after I hit the lottery I will buy us both a set.

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #48 on:** January 07, 2023, 06:52:39 PM »

Kirk, lmao.
Same happened to me with my belt sander. I thought it's gummed up or needs oil.
Then I see this round knob and turn it and away it goes. LOL

Ok Jim.

That sounds like a line my wife gives me quite often...

Btw.... Noooooo.... of course not.

Hahaha. That is hilarious. It’s like Christmas as a kid when it works out though.

Over here it’s been a long hunting season with lots of hunting and not much killing and the shop was a wreck, so I spent the day cleaning up and I’m motivated to get some bows built as soon as the season ends.

Buemaker · « **Reply #52 on:** January 08, 2023, 05:36:43 AM »

Result of riser glue up. 5 pc of Bubinga and 8 thin Bubinga and Birch veneers. Now I’ll split it in half and glue in an I beam.

I got a bit of time in my shop yesterday and cleaned up my 2nd attempt of a 58” fhlb . Am i reading this right ? Right limb pos approx 1/4”. I am in way better shape than my first attempt.

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #54 on:** January 08, 2023, 10:03:45 AM »

You need to measure with a ruler from the string to the end of each riser to get the tiller measurement. Just like measuring for the brace height.

Jon, your messy shop is tidier than my organized shop!

Jon Lipovac · « **Reply #56 on:** January 08, 2023, 01:33:02 PM »

Buggs, I guess looking back at the pic it probably wasn’t as bad as it felt.

I just know for me, when the rip fence feels like a windshield wiper for the table it’s time for me to organize.

Kirkll · « **Reply #57 on:** January 09, 2023, 02:21:20 PM »

Wow Jon! Thats impressive.... I haven't seen my whole table saw off fall table in years... Well that's not completely true. i did run some sheet goods and had it clean for a day....

I feel pretty good when i can see my floor, and walk around without tripping over things. Organized chaos is about as close as i ever get.

Buggs · « **Reply #58 on:** January 09, 2023, 09:42:07 PM »

Kirk, pictures of your shop make me happy. It's obvious you have embraced and thrive amid chaos.

I'm happy if I can take more than two steps without having to move sideways, step over something, or duck.

Are you guys bragging again?
