Not always gadgets, there are a lot that are aimed at allowing anyone to make stuff in wood without having to become a master woodworker and master the traditional woodworkers toolkit, festool has spawned an entire business around this concept.

Maybe the reason they are making space in our prisons is because they are just letting 100,000 ayslum seekers stay to clear the backlog and from statistics across europe they know many will be involved with crime, many without even knowing they are because of cultural differences. First...

So we are saying that the only way to test this is a destructive test, that is not good because I would not like to think that rather than positive proof that it works you just need faith. If that was a safety system in an industrial enviroment then it has to be proven to work with an end to...

Have you looked at just buying the gates, at least you will have a price to compare with. This place, not in Sherwood forrest is a good source or further afield and more agricultural is Relphs, but I believe deliver all over

They need to resolve the existing ones first like the junior doctors who will now have the upper hand so the outcome will be interesting, it is a no win really because if they fail to solve it then people will say you cannot do any better than the conservatives but if they give them a good...

That is how all pipework should look, neat and tidy rather than all over the show. The same is true for high integrity wiring looms where wires should not cross others and be run in such a way that they all can exit a branch side by side without crossing. If you go right back to when...

So in fifteen years have you not been tempted to prove beyond doubt that it would work by giving it say a pork chop ? They say a pig is the nearest thing to human flesh !

No mater how much training you deliver, safety features and safety systems are employed you will still get incidents because humans are just that way inclined, they have moments of reboot during which the brain is not fully engaged. How is the sawstop safety function tested, anything...

A council has to pay more than £20,000 after a lack of proper training led to a school technician losing a finger when using a circular bench saw. Why did the council pay out, safety is a two way thing and the council were at fault for failing to deliver the training but equally the school...

The brand that jumps out is Norton, been in the market for ever and has a wide range of products. If you purchase from an industrial outlet or supplier rather than a DIY outlet then you will get a known product but might pay a bit more, someone like Cromwell tools. Also make sure the wheel...

Best advice here is always wear googles and face mask, these wheels shed bristles and therefore do not buy cheap but known brands.

But not with a high number of voters, many seats they won are marginal and are not safe seats and we had a very low turnout because people do not have any confidence in our politicians or political system. Yes labour are going to make " Change" but the question is will it be a positive or...

@DRC he does have a three phase supply unless someone has used the red three phase connectors instead of the blue 230 volt ones for a single phase supply but I would say he probably knows whether his existing planer is a single or three phase machine !

If drugs were legal then it has several advantages, they would be cheaper and so people would not turn to crime in order to fund there addiction, peoples workshops would not be targeted and you could get a tax revenue from the sales like tobaco and alcohol. It would also thin out the...

But I reckon it made him have a re think and he has now progressed in a more logical fashion in that he is trying to narrow down the location of the fault by fitting that isolator and only uncovering the pipes beneath the boiler. Are you saying that the wiring was also just burried along with...

They do say never to judge a book by it's cover and so far we only have the cover for the book of starmer and no idea what lies on it's pages so jumping to hero worship is a little early so lets see what unfolds. There are a few test lined up this coming week so people will have a little more...

I suppose you can divide the reasons behind crime into career criminals who probably are not interested in rehabilitation and those who found themselves in a desperate situation due to the cost of living and saw no way out. It has often been said that if you send a naive first timer to prison...

I like @ChaiLatte 's approach of thinking of the basic's first, it was seen working before being moved and now does not work following the move so E-Stop latched is a good start. @petertheeater did you buy from just a seller such as ebay or a trade outlet, ie a workshop enviroment ?

The high rate of re-offending gives little confidence, low level crime has become a way of life such as shoplifting which is really nothing more than robbery and if you know that the chance of being locked up is very low then you have removed the detterent as well. Cannot agree more, it is...

Less time than the NHS !
