They make a panel saw that will suit our limited space and I am impressed by the quality and design of this machinery. The other piece of equipment is a 15 inch Powermatic thicknesser from Carbatec. It has a spiral head installed which is a great feature as far as performance and maintenance go.</div><div><br></div><div>Happy to share ideas with you on this topic.</div><div>Richard Bazeley</div><div>StArnaud Secondary College</div><div>Woodwork and Vet Furniture<br>On 29 Jan 2014, at 6:18 pm, Katherine Harris <<a href="mailto:k.harris@live.com.au">k.harris@live.com.au</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div>
