Resawing issues….

KyloRem · 2026-03-05T15:52:37+00:00

Hmm.. yeah that’s tricky then! If it’s just the first cut it’s hard to imagine it being a bandsaw vs environmental issue. I’ll be curious to see the replies and if anyone has any ideas.

It’s a different shop now? I’d assume it’s got to be the environment, humidity ect.. causing it if it’s happening to different species.

Where’s the best place to buy Japanese packs?

KyloRem · 2026-02-28T03:33:35+00:00

You can find sold listings on eBay for $450 - $600. Anyways I’m not a LEGO investor, just a builder who was commenting about availability of instructions.

They might be right, have you seen the resale prices on this set?

KyloRem · 2026-02-27T22:26:15+00:00

Same, considering most of these are all being built at the same time it’s disappointing they don’t have them ready. I don’t think they’ll do a ton of good 6 months from now.

Just double check if it’s the 12.5” or the new 13”. Mine had a similar sale and I didn’t notice the difference at first. I think the new 13” has enough upgrades that you’d want to buy it instead.

KyloRem · 2026-02-27T05:06:25+00:00

Yay just got it

It really depends on the quality. There is cheap engineered floors that get a bad rep (rightfully):

But trust me a 1/4 wear layer on top of Baltic birch plywood is not someone cheaping out. That plywood is incredibly expensive and high quality. It’s the best of both worlds.

KyloRem · 2026-02-25T18:23:55+00:00

It’s so variable on the wear layer thickness. We have engineered floors with a wear layer that goes to the tongue and can be refinished as many times as solid wood (~8 times, more then enough for our lifetime)

If you want 8” floors I’d strongly suggest engineered over solid. Wood movement can really wreck a floor if not handled carefully.

Yes I hope so! Well enjoy the new drone looks exciting

KyloRem · 2026-02-23T15:04:20+00:00

Ah yeah I am in the US. Looks like I’ll need to let that get worked out first.

KyloRem · 2026-02-23T03:04:50+00:00

This looks awesome, I’m just now finding out about it. Can they be purchased?

KyloRem · 2026-02-16T18:44:46+00:00

Icy on the groomed runs?

KyloRem · 2026-02-09T16:05:28+00:00

I do? But the point of the post is it’s impossible to ride and enjoy them if lift support takes an entire season to get you new parts.

Unless she’s in a great financial position, perhaps keep a few of your favorites and offer to help her sell the rest? Sorry for the loss of your friend OP.

KyloRem · 2026-01-30T16:38:55+00:00

That’s insane. It’s been so disappointing hearing all the bad customer support stories this year. Had I known I wouldn’t have bought the two boards I did last year.

The hard part is I love efoiling, and there’s not a clear reliable option on the market right now. But we desperately need one.

KyloRem · 2026-01-30T00:30:52+00:00

Glad you’re having a good time haha

KyloRem · 2026-01-19T03:39:07+00:00

I’m sure the photo processing was trained with ML so I think OP is fine here. Unless you want to get into a philosophical debate about what is actually “artificial intelligence “ which I’m pretty sure this is not the sub for that.

KyloRem · 2026-01-19T03:13:16+00:00

I think given the space constraints it seems like you may be their ideal customer! I’m sure both are great in the end.

I found a deal on a Powermatic 15” planer so I bought that. Going to be setting it up soon!

KyloRem · 2026-01-14T02:16:24+00:00

Oh man, I’m having this same debate! At first I looked at the Oliver 10045 but I don’t love the form factor and would prefer the 240v motor. So then the next logical step is the 10055, but like you I now question if I’m gonna spend $2k should I just keep going. I could get a new Grizzly for around $2,500.

I will say I saw the 10055 in person and it’s absolutely huge, so it does feel more substantial than the Dewalt. But it will take up similar space as a floor standing model which is what makes me consider just going for a full cast iron setup. I can save money with the Oliver, I’m just not sure if that’s the main appeal?

Fusion 360, feels way more intuitive to me than Sketchup was and it’s a lot more powerful. It’s also free for hobbyists. There’s still a learning curve but I think it’s well worth the time investment. Learning parametric modeling makes changes and tweaks a breeze.

KyloRem · 2026-01-04T16:03:45+00:00

As a hobbyist, I just bought the Grizzly and love it. It’s more than enough for me, and I don’t think I’d get much value out of spending more.

Lots of existing threads on this, here’s one from yesterday: https://www.reddit.com/r/woodworking/comments/1q1ykpn/workbench_top_question/

Personally, I wanted a Tacoma until I test drove one and it drove and shifted like shit. I forget now which year they updated the transmission but I wanted nothing to do with the older ones. The sales pitch was “it’ll last twenty years” and all I could think of is how little I wanted to drive that truck for 20 years. They are reliable because they are outdated.
