    Owner issues.....anybody else get 'stuck' ? (Not A/R issues)

    You have been through a lot. Sometimes, the best thing you can do is to give yourself the grace to recognize that you need time to recover. Recognize that your lack of motivation may be your body telling you to slow down and take a break for a while.

    recommendations wanted for noise attenuating ear protection

    I can't speak for M Moore, but when I worked for International Paper, we had custom molded ear plugs. Just like the shoemobiles of old, someone came to the plant and took impressions of everyone's ears and a few weeks later we received the ear plugs. It looks like today, they have DIY kits...

    recommendations wanted for noise attenuating ear protection

    Take a look at 3M WorkTunes. I used them on the farm and they were great with tractors and other equipment and am using them in the woodshop now and they do a really good job knocking down the sound from the 7.5hp dust collector, air compressors, 10hp planer, shaper, tablesaw and other power...

    Can a frozen Reeves drive on a Powermatic 221 planer feed be repaired without removing the feed drive motor?

    The spring loaded pulley attached to the feed drive motor is very stiff and doesn’t slide on its shaft when the feed speed is adjusted. Consequently, all that happens is the belt tension increases. Before I go to the trouble of pulling the motor so that I can work on the pulley, are there...

    What voltages were KO Lee workheads provided with?

    I purchased a lot of KO Lee tooling from a sharpening shop that was closing. One of the B943 powered workheads is missing its plug. There is a four wire cable coming from the motors. I can’t find a data plate or any information on the motor or workhead that indicates a voltage. Anyone know...
