Popular Post Llama Posted August 1, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 A long time ago in a galaxy far far away, a guy ordered a Felder AD941. So many things have happened since then! Anyway, I've waited for the day my machine to arrive. And today is that day! Fresh off the truck!!! I almost had a heart attack when the pallet moved a little... I had to talk the delivery guy into helping me move this thing to the inside of my shop. He was a good guy, so he helped... Comfort Euro Guard - 16" of greatness The next task is getting this bad mofo off the pallet, finishing the wiring and firing it up!! With any luck, that will happen tonight. Reality though, is the wiring may take another day or two. I am so excited!!! OH! I even got this little maintenance kit complete with a little torque wrench for the cutters 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power is already run... Cord is plenty long, incase I need to move it. Adding a plug too, comes cordless . Wiring is ready to go, just need my guy to come out and hook it all up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cygnus A Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 You need an electrician to connect a power chord? Your pics almost make me wish I sprung for the Felder but I couldn't stomach the extra 4k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkinneb Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 Great looking machine congrats! So the tops go up together? Does this mean you don't have to remove the fence to switch over?...and the lift mechanism is electrical that is just to cool! One more question what size electrical box breaker is required? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wnaziri Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 That is an amazing machine. Congrats. What is the difference between Felder AD 741 vs Felder 941? I am thinking of making some changes to my workshop also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything that matters is probably identical . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything that matters is probably identical . Different mechanism for raising the planer bed. The 941 is more robust... Different guard raising thing too. Everything is more robust on the 9 series. 2 hours ago, Cygnus A said: You need an electrician to connect a power chord?

Might as well have him to it all... 2 hours ago, pkinneb said: So the tops go up together? Yes, no messing around with the fence necessary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick S Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Beautiful machine! Congrats! I've been using a friend's 741 quite a bit lately on some wide stock. What a joy to use! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 We all thought it was Colorado harvest that had you speaking in tongues and that there was no way in hell that this would become a reality. I guess we can close that Facebook page ( which obviously you weren't invited to) down. Congrats dude! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coop Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Did you get the ding from shipping or unloading? Hopefully you didn't sign the BOL without making a note of it. That sucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
