In Response To: Re: Power feed (daren)

: who sells them? how much?

Just about any wood working tool supplier has them. I would be very happy if someone would toss 5% of the $470 cost my way by ordering through my link to Amazon but there are plenty of other sources. The least expensive Delta feeder is quite reasonable at $250. It is called the Versa-Feeder and can be found in most woodworking catalogs. Grizzley has a decent looking equivalent to the more expensive Delta available for about $400. Most large tool manufactures make power feeders. The cheapest from Woodtek seems to be about $700 but is a full 1 HP. Probably overkill for most people.

Like I said, power stock feeders are luxury items, but are a relatively safe way to cut strips. Nothing substitutes for being careful.
