I just stumbled upon this video-and enjoyed it! The problem you are trying to solve for is so common to all of us who have used “oil-less” air compressors. They are very loud. I’m assuming your second compressor is/was an oiled unit-much quieter. I have mine in a closet where the water heaters are located in my garage (oiled compressor). This helps immensely with an already quieter compressor. You only lack one thing-as far as I can tell! You need your air line plumbed to a Reelcraft retracting hose reel mounted to the ceiling or wall!

Putting it in a separate room or a inside a closet helps a lot 👍 My noisy one required oil change now and then, my new silent one is oil-less. You will find both noisy and silent ones regardless if it's oil-less or not. What's typical: direct-drive is noisier than belt-driven, these are normally bigger and runs at lower rpm, so more quiet. I do have a retractable hose system downstairs in my garage btw, very smart solution 😊

What if you run a car muffler and exaust off an air compressor and have it exit some part of your house to allow the sound and heat to exit to the outside world from a distance with pipes to make it quiter and place inside of a box with that foam for canceling out echo noises and place in an area typically away from where you work ie if your workijg down in the garage have it up in the attic and just have a multi system of air hose connections across your garage in different areas with valves labeled so you know which item in the shop you are supplying air too? Ie sand blaster, tire air inflator, esc shoot at the same time might be able to also move the gauge thats on the air compressor using tubes or hosing to allow you to know what the air pressure is at in another location in your work space and not have to open the box its in or be within a few feet to read the gauge. I hate the nouse they make but they are super usuful tools

It helps a bit to add a muffler to the air intake, but it does not help that much. Some of the high pitched 'breathing' noise gets removed this way, but it's still quite noisy from what I have heard. A lot of noise is coming from the compressor part and the motor as well, and since it's connected to the tank, the tank itself emits quite a lot of noise. There are however no exhaust coming directly from the air compressor, the compressed air is squeezed into the tank, and let out through the air hose whenever you use it 😊 The box I made has an air output that works like an exhaust, this is actually faced towards an ventilation opening between the ceiling and the wall upstairs in my garage, so the hot air from the box is actually blown out of the garage. No need for silencer on the exhaust from the bix though, since noise is already dampened before it exits the box.

Yes, hot air rises, generally smart to pump cold air in from bottom, exhaust at top 👍 For my design it was smart to have exhaust where I put it because it blows the hot air outside through a ventilation channel. With a fan blowing air into the case, and a fan in the compressor also blowing backwards, it all works very well.

As long as you are only cutting a groove and not all the way through, a riving knife isn't needed. Don't know why you would make a through cut with a dado blade.
@kihestad
@kihestad 7 күн бұрын
Correct: my plan is just to cut a 6mm deep groove into the wood, not cut it into two pieces. These blades are originally made for cutting though, so I can make another adapter and only use one of the blades if I want to do cutting.

@kachboubou83 7 күн бұрын
A homemade dado blade, I love the idea but I think you should stagger the teeth of the two blades to avoid asking too much of your motor. When the teeth are offset, they don't cut at the same time, so the motor forces less.

Hmmm . . . A basic dado set DIY style. Dado sets are stunningly common in the USA, not so much in the EU apparently. More shims in the center makes a wider groove/dado, obviously; using a variety of thicknesses can allow the dado width to be tuned to a desired width. Typically, a dado set is smaller diameter than the standard blade diameter for the saw to reduce the load on the motor due to the wider cut. A USA-style dado set comes with chipper-style wide shims to produce a flat bottom in wide dadoes; this could be emulated with a third blade. For this setup, a wider adapter hub would allow for more dado width; excess hub length could be accommodated by a recess machined into the saw's follower flange. Making the adapter's flange narrower would move the assembly closer to the motor for more thread engagement with the clamping nut if needed. Within reasonable limits, the greater mass of adding a second or third blade is not a problem for the saw motor - the issue to be aware of is the load from the cut width/depth and feed rate.

You are correct, I had not heard about them before just now - after I made this video 😖 They are very expensive over here though, I found a kit for USD 350 - the two blades I used cost in total USD 35 😊 Thanks a lot for the insight about the system, it seems to be very smart. My "system" has no flexibility at all when it comes to the width, so in that regards the dado kit is much more usable.

Bonjour. Cette modification est très dangereuse. Les lames "Dado" doivent êtres conçues et fabriquées de façon très précise. En particulier pour éviter les vibrations, le resserrement des lames entre elles suite aux vibrations (d'ou une entretoise assez grande en diamètre, mais pas trop pour permettre l'évacuation des copeaux), ou le resserrement des lames par le bois (en particulier le bois massif et surtout si comme vous il n'y a pas de couteau diviseur après la lame) se qui pourrait occasionner un retour forcé vers l'arrière et vous blesser ou plus grave. De même, les dentures sont spécialement étudiées pour limiter les accidents et optimiser la coupe. Je vous suggère de faire très très attention et de carrément investir dans un jeu de lames de bonne qualité et prévue pour cela ce qui sera plus rentable sur une machine peu puissante et moins risqué. Cordialement.
