Here is the extension mounted to my Foreman. It brings it out far enough to not interfere with the vacuum fitting. Great job!
Thanks,
Lauren

I love seeing pics of the product pop up here, and on social media! It’s very rewarding!
Been spending just about all my free time making these. Caught up on orders on Friday, and now back to making some to build up stock.
I didn’t really have a great sense of how long the different cutters would last. I’m actually blown away at the longevity of the cutters. This 5 gallon pail of aluminum chips is about 1/4 of all the chips created so far. I have yet to change the cutter. When the cutter was new, the parts came out with crisp edges, and now they come out with the slightest of burrs on the edges. A subsequent operation removes the burrs, so it makes no difference in the final product. Surface finish on the faces is still very good.
Does anyone have any knowledge on the generally accepted strategy to know when to change cutters when used in aluminum? Just run it until it breaks??
I’ve watched a lot of Mitchells Woodworks videos to help me understand the Onefinity machine when I started. I sent Marty a free Masso extension mount to say thanks for his videos. That started a conversation with Marty at Mitchells Woodworks that resulted in a video about my new product! Of course I jumped on the opportunity to have a video made about it. I was pumped! The video came out last Monday - which was super satisfying to watch.
Check it out!
Shipping Update:
Uuugh - There was a looming postal strike here in my area that threatened to delay my product getting to users, potentially for weeks. Turns out the strike didn’t happen. For a period I was upgrading all the orders to UPS so users didn’t face a long delay. Costs more to ship via UPS and I just had to eat the upcharge. It was also a pain having to copy-paste a bunch of orders into the UPS shipping software. Whereas Etsy, and my website make it very easy to print and process an order efficiently. Highly recommend Etsy or Squarespace for hosting e-commerce.

This is way overdue but huge shout out to MikeXYZ and his product. I just finally got another dust shoe to try this extension with and its perfect.
Due to my setup I have to have the Masso facing 90 degrees from the front and this extension gives plenty of room for that with the double barrel dust shoe!
