Which machine annoys you most?
Yettiatcpg:
I'm to lazy to break anything. most things have a better shot of rusting out first. :poke:
on a serious note I did have an issue with my 6" x 48" belt sander. it was way to easy to stall. I upgraded my table saw so I took that motor and flipped it into the sander. now its a 3/4hp and does what its supposed to.

all the machines in my shop annoy me especially after coming on hear I see what fantastic things are made with the same equipment as me and what CRAP I turn out and I get very annoyed and frustrated,
I think it may be the electricity around hear, it makes the machines inaccurate. :) :lol: :)

I hate whatever I've just put down and it's ability to blend into the background such that I have to spend 20 minutes trying to find it again.
(OK - technically not a machine... ;-)

John,
I bolted my bandsaw legs down to a wood platform I made, then put casters on the bottom. I keep stored it up next to the wall in a corner and just roll it out when I need to cut something long.
The one thing that still annoys me about it is that the blade will slip of the wheels periodically when the blade jams in the work during a heavy cut. It's hell getting the blade out of the kerf without bending it and then having to remount the blade. I find that if I clean off the wheels and blade periodically it's less of a problem.
The other tool that annoys me is the geared rotary table. It's heavy and I hate taking the vise off my mill and mounting up the rotary table. I also hate centering it and I hate trying to figure out to clamp work onto it. Seems like it's always a hassle!
