Those Martin machines sure have some very nice features! Thanks for the vid. Cheers, David.

they really make terrific machinery. but, as with anything, they are not without issues, and certainly come at a very high price.

The jointer surface planer is making great sound 😂😂😂😂😂❤.

Having a back cutter and raised panel cutter you could run at the same time would save you a lot of time. Interesting that you run the cutters below. I run them above so the wood is between the table and the cutter so you get an exact thickness to go in the groove regardless of any variation in panel thickness. Probably not that big a deal with a wide belt sander and they should be pretty even in thickness.

Correct investment to that effect, I have learnt that in woodworking you don't need to gamble if you really need profits.

@@davidndahura7437 I think if you run the cutter above you would also get a slightly better cut as the panel would be supported on the table as opposed to floating in space unsupported. The way you do it the panel can deflect a bit.

Very nice video. It’s great to see tooling of the common-man in use instead of Zuani once in a while. I chuckled to myself when you said “And now, like so much in woodworking, it’s just the monotony of feeding the wood”. I found myself thinking “One way to reduce the monotony is to eliminate CNC shaper setups, and do the setups manually and from scratch every time”. 😜

hi david, thanks for the comment. i follow your posts and work on sawmill creek. as i said in the video, this isn't our first shaper - in fact it's our fifth. i've had two decades of manual setup, and until my shop partner said that he was starting to have vision issues and was getting really tired of the long setup times, we didn't even consider this machine. but, now that we have it, i believe it's worth every dime. the first 20+ custom kitchens i made were done with "regular" shapers, and track saws/cabinet saw/sliding table saw, and now, we use a CNC to do the plywood. some of the effort is offloaded to the software setup and configuration, rather than days at the slider cutting parts. is that any less woodworking? well, the last 10+ kitchens have been more pleasurable to build than the 20 before. in some cases, we use money to buy equipment that spikes efficiency or capability, or solves particular challenges with technology rather than brute force. that said, i still love my hand plane collection. different strokes for different folks, right?

@@curlandburl6937 Hi David, I wasn't trying to be critical - not at all. You have an excellent presentation style and voice and great production values. Your video does tread over ground I covered earlier ( flic.kr/s/aHsmKqCqKz ), but my videos are a lot more involved because I do not benefit from a CNC shaper and thus drag the viewer through all the setup steps, and as a result I get comments like "why do you make this so complicated?" LOL It is complicated to set up - even the first time using CNC machines it's complicated. But like you said, even your situation started with more basic equipment, and only through volume can the benefits and cost justification for CNC equipment can be justified. I often have amusing discussions with other woodworkers about whether their craft is really "woodworking" or is "manufacturing." This distinctions is probably not important in the kind of work you and I do (I'm a slave to CAD as much as anyone), but when you get to Tilt/Turn Windows like some of my friends specialize in, I find the distinction highly applicable. As a one-time Martin rep, I will say that Martin should pay you to make more videos. Whether they pay you, or you get rich from KZbin ad revenue, please keep making videos - they inspire and educate and we need more of that.

Nice video. I have a hammer F3 shaper and it scares me when I run such large tooling. I have a Comatic power feeder for it, which makes it a lot easier.

Machines are of high end manufactured in Europe at least i know America they don't make such machines. Well video has exposed me alot.
