Making lots of molding for baseboards in my house woodgears.ca/home/making_baseb... This was making over 100m (300 ft) of molding, involving lots of planing and routing. I made a homemade power feeder to help with the job.

You remind me of my grandpa, he was a master craftsmen he built an amazing home in Sacramento California out of telephone poles and he even had a real train that the kids could ride around the property it was so fun. The house is incredible so many cool features. He started building it in the 40’s and finished in the 80’s so one could imagine all of the cool things he did. I learned a lot from him and my dad and step mom.

You can address that question to the DeWalt service representative that repaired my thickness planer. Because I just took him at his word. He said don't do it, so I don't. But if I had to hazard a guess I can well imagine the boards could go through at different speeds and that would stress the mechanism. Sort of like throwing a wrench into a gear train? Can you wrap your pea brain around that concept?

DeWalt is using that as an anti litigation technique so they don't have to fill your warranty when their chinese tool breaks. A DeWalt representative getting paid to sell you a hobbyist tool told you something and you blindly followed? It's not hard to find the pea-brain here...

Great video as always. IMO best in class on KZfaq. The drive pulley on my Craftsman table saw would periodically come loose from the arbor (every couple months or sooner with heavy use). The arbor was beat up and I was considering getting a new one. Instead, I purchased a higher quality pulley with a beefy collar from a machine supply house and drilled and tapped 2 additional set screws into the collar. The three set screws have held the pulley tight for several years.
