Have a look here as well. I use them in the States. Low commissions. http://www.charlesschwab.co.uk/cgi/index.pl

A good question. Actually, they have all been read previously, but I can't bear to discard a book unless it is a complete clunker. (I might need it someday! :lol: ) Most of the hardback books are history and biography from my University days.

Well, 46 for me but 20 years ago might have been 65! My goal is 10. :lol:

All very nice suprasport! Lovely finishing. It looks natural, not plastic. Good show.

Oh ho. No mansion here, just a largish parlour which begs not only for bookcases but a billiards table in the middle. But then I suppose it would be the game room, not the library. :lol: Actually, the house is about 35 or 40 years old (new by your standards) and needs updating. Have finished...

Although I have the Rotex 150 (which has excellent DC) and have not tried the Metabo, I will mildly contend that the vac you hook to it will make a large difference as well. Even my Porter-Cable 125mm ROS and P/C finishing sander offer very good DC when hooked to the Festo CT-22. Where money is...

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I am primarily interested in furniture making and home reno projects, such as cabinet making. Will post some samples in another thread. Cheers

A gracious good evening to you all. I have been lurking here a long time but thought it finally proper to introduce myself. I am a Yank hobbiest just getting back into the WW world in the last 2 years. Still a novice, really, but enjoying it immensely. I have found that I learn a lot more or...

A shame to waste my first post here, I suppose, but I'll be back to do a proper introduction later today. Those who say that American furniture tastes run to darker colours are correct. As are those who say that Norm often copies antiques, which tend to be dark colours. But the main reason, I...
