To frost0813, do you use a dial micrometer gage?

@smfield Actually, now I don't use anything to measure the height of the blades. As I show in the video, I just hold a steel rule over the blades and rotate slowly in the directional flow of the wood. When the knife catches on the steel rule it should lift it slightly and move it forward about 1/8th of an inch at any point along blade. That's all I do to set the blades.

Thanks for the lecture. I looked at my manual and it does talk about the adjustment screws! I would never have know, not being a manual reading type.

@smfield I know what you mean. I now starting to find out these manuals actually have some good things in them, and often could have saved me time had I bothered to read them. Glad I am not alone :)

Great vid. Would like to point out that the less distance above the outfeed, the less the snipe. I have in fact eliminated snipe all together on my own, as I have put conciderable time into flattening and adjusting the tables. My knives are less than 1/1000 abve the outfeed.

@frost0813 You are absolutely right ... and thanks for pointing it out, the closer you can get your blades to the height of the out-feed table the less snipe. You obviously have put quite a bit of time into fine tuning your equipment, great to have your skills and insights and to be able to help pass this info along to others too.
Thanks again for your input ... always welcome :)
