Lovely bit of kit Jim I recently picked up a second hand bs350s and I’m really pleased with it record power make some great machinery. Looking forward to seeing you at makers mate 👍🏻
A simple tip - don't cut round bowl blanks! Cut them with straight cuts to make octagons instead; it is simple to turn the octagons to round once on the lathe. This avoids the problem of consistent curved cuts altering the set of your blade teeth, as described in the video.
Good morning Jim. Another interesting video. I do Like Record Power machinery and the people at Yandles could not be more helpful. Just a shame it’s a four hour drive 🌞
Yes Yandles is a great shop. Everyone one is very friendly and knowledgeable and they have a great relationship with Record Power. It is a 2.5 hour trip for me but well worth it.
You need to purchase the splitter separately. I finished the stool with Plastikote Gloss polyurethane varnish ( spray can ). 2 coats , light sand between coats.
Hi can I ask you in your opinion and experience using a bandsaw would the sabre 300 be ok if your disabled as in all the adjustments raising and lowering the blade guard with the measurement scale on it are easy to move and blade changes are easy. I’ve got a 8” lumberjack wish I never bought it but I’m new to woodworking still doing my shed inside. But I just thought I would ask you as you have far more experience than me as I can only cut sticks. Cheers Steve 👨🏼🦽👨🏼🦽

Does the hose and splitter come with the machine?
Or do you have to buy them separately
Also what finish did you use on the stool? It looks lovely
