Making molding and framing a wall hanging

[@MrPatdeeee]

Wow Steve...there are few things (in my 90 yrs) that excites me more; that live in a technological era; that gets better and better. And you friend: are blessed with many of those "Gems". Thus, NO wonder your beautiful frame work; ended up incredibly perfect. And thanks for sharing us; with the best; because of your talent too from heaven, kind Sir.❤

Thank you for your kind words Pat.

Nice! I really love the Hoffmann dovetail key, it makes picture frame assembly so much quick, easy and strong.

[@extremewoodworker]

Thanks James. And no clamps either! I saw your Pantorouter jig photos on the FOG and it looks like a nice setup. Steve

Another interesting video Steve. I always enjoy seeing the different tools you use. I think the first time I saw the Hoffmann dovetail key system was on the New Yankee Workshop and maybe an episode or two of This Old House. It definitely makes things easier and no clamps. 😊 Have a good weekend. Ron

Thank you Ron. I remember that as well. The beauty ot the Hoffmann system is how quick, accurate, and strong it is with no clamps. Steve

Sweet! How did you manage the 3D files for the carving?

Steve, Love your methods. Are the Aigner pressure rollers a neccesity for running that moulding, or an extra bit of precaution?

[@extremewoodworker]

The lip was only 2 mm tall and the rebate size did not allow the finger support to be installed so I was worried that it would roll over milling the rebate. I really don't know if it was necessary or not. Doing operations such as these, I prefer to err on the side of caution. Steve

What is the advantage of using the Martin Miter-X when you have a crosscut system on the table saw that can do the length compensation just as well? Is it easier/ more accurate? Thanks for sharing with us all these great videos!

[@extremewoodworker]

The short sides could not have been done using the standard fence since the pivot point is out near the edge of the sliding table. At 45 degrees, this pivots the fence stop and fence support much further away from the blade preventing their use on short pieces. The MitreX pivot point is much closer to the blade providing much better support and fence stops for short pieces. I find both accurate and the length compensation are spot on. Steve

@@extremewoodworker Thanks for the clarification.

Hi Steve: Thanks for the video. I have the same shaper and was interested in the pressure module you're using. Does the P-channel adapter fit in the track on your slider, and then the pressure module mounts to the adapter? or does the P-channel attach to the front rail of the slider?

[@extremewoodworker]

Hi Gotham. The pressure module attaches to a bracket that mounts in the P channel of the table (outside edge), It does not use the table tee slot. This link shows the assembly: www.felder-group.com/en-us/shop/pressure-devices-sc123884/pressure-module-sp123888 If you already have an Aigner pressure module, the P channel adapter is available separately. It is Felder part number AI-214527950270 and runs around $50 plus the requisite ridiculous amount for shipping. Steve

[@GothamWoodworks]

@@extremewoodworker Thanks Steve

Where do you source the horizontal pressure roller that you use to hold stock against the fence below the power feeder rollers?

[@extremewoodworker]

There are two sources in the USA. Martin USA and Felder USA. The pressure module is available from both sources. For some reason, Felder has not chosen to carry the rollers which are a necessary item to use this. I would suggest either contacting Martin or one of their dealers. Steve
