Most bathroom units stand 800mm high. It's impossible to work out the sizes until you establish what hinges and runners are to be used. If you've already purchased 25mm mdfmr, which is rubbish pressed cardboard, you are on a hiding to nothing because mdf needs layon hinges and nearly all of...

Why don't you all just stop banging on. Set up your table saws and planers correctly! If you cant be asked then get a true straight edge and run your router down it. This is the machine age. We left the cave long ago. When I make a table top I have to earn £150 not 15 pence cos I have been...

Jeez. The joke's on you lot. You are voting in an entirely undemocratic system controlled by the old boys.... Even worse when the luvvies do vote they vote for a knight of its kingdom. Laughable. Get yourself informed! Don't vote then the system has to change!

I see you are all back again debating and bemoaning. You all got what you deserved voting YET AGAIN in an entirely undemocratic system. On and on it goes. Century after century. Wake up! Join the enlightened! DONT VOTE IN THIS SYSTEM. Then things will change.

I cannot believe this thread is still rattling on. You are all concerned about and will be voting in an autocratic process called 'First Past The Post'. To make this abundantly clear; if in your constituency you have 7 candidates and all in general get voted for but one, and one alone, gets the...

Looking forward to another 'muppet thursday' when all the country's muppets go out to vote for the rich and powerful snakes in the pit. Why do you continue? FPTP and no box to tick for no confidence? Do you all really think this is democracy? PAH!

The slot in your jig has been re cut by the 'fly by night' that sold it you. Having used home cut jigs and latterly Duropal jigs for over 45 years, it is essential that the front edge of the scribe slot is erred to and this will be easy because the slot should be 30.5 mm wide and the bush 30mm...

If you are quoting from info from the internet it has to be true right? Can't you lot go and do something useful...sweep the roads or help the NHS ...even polish your doorstep like your granny did ???? What a load of h****s***

Come on Jacob it's time you chipped in here!

My experience is thus. All tradesmen, since covid it seems (maybe brexit), charge far too much labour rate, even given the time they must allow for site visit and quoting. Many of them are arrogant and untidy and again, since covid, many, many of them are obviously untrained idiots from other...

I agree with everything Against_The_Grain has written. Exactly my experience. I would also chuck in when local government policy drives you out..as in the case of Wycombe's destructive treatment of its chair making industry. Washed up, broke and broken. So my advice is the same.......DON'T.

Of course High Wycombe's chair museum has chairs stuck to the wall and some 'rubbish furniture' elsewhere. It depends what you want to get from your visit. Treat it with disdain and it will be like any other national treasure. Want to be there and the museum has a world of information to offer...

It is time this post was renamed angry old men banging on and on and on and on and on and on and on. Delete it moderators !!!!

yes agree.... this is english walnut...bark and grain id

Chuck coca cola on your roof..that'll get rid of the moss!
