Carrollian "Curioser and curiouser..."

I have certainly embraced water based finishes since discovering Ronseal waterbased satin clear varnish works well as a sanding sealer, filling any overlooked 'rough' bits and end grain before an application of coloured stain to avoid that mottled effect. Rubbed into sanded Oak before waxing...

I obviously can't answer for Donie but in my case it happened after a few minutes running.

I'm equally intrigued!

+1 for the 22" Bahco.

Attach lengths of expanding trellis at 'littleuns' height. (Separately, they are a small charity, you are not...)

I had this exact problem years ago when cutting a series of long 1/2" housings in MDF to make CD racks using an Elu 1/4" router and a spiral clear plastic tube to extract the dust. Enough tingle to make it uncomfortable and on one occasion a little lightning storm in the clear plastic adaptor...

Ah! Mea culpa... when in doubt, read the question, sorry.

This probably isn't 'posh enough' but the design has served me well for years. The full width back panel gives immense rigidity when hand planing, something I did a lot of before buying machinary. Inexpensive, rigid and easy to fit out with shelves etc. I would say match your sheet material to...

I have watched the video, very interesting! Sourcing the screw could be difficult ? (as would finding the right timber?) A design that seems almost Shaker, perhaps Puritan in concept, admirable, thanks for the link B'Dad.

As in..Get your retaliation in first...(An England forward whose name currently escapes me)

My stepfather of jobs like washing up, raking leaves, cleaning your bicycle... "Stop moaning, it's only a five minute job once it's done!" To this day I cannot work it out.

Overhead in the coffee shop of the Ivybridge Library ( Devon ) in a conversation between two well dressed ladies 'of a certain age'... "Don't you just hate that? " "What? " "Look..." (I'm ashamed to say, I looked too) "Look, d'ya see ? The way my diamond studs scratch my Iphone!" Let...

I shall go ahead as if Stuart wants to cut square pieces of ply from bigger pieces of ply, so here goes...This isn't meant to be talking down to anyone, I needed this level of instruction when I made a piped edge velvet cushion for a stool..and two Elastplast.. Stuart, armed with an expanding...

Whatever that width 'should ' be, make it wide enough to take a 5-6" G cramp or a good proportion of the ubiquitous 'speed clamp'. You'll always want to hold something down firmly near the edge of the bench. A posh edge by all means but be sure a clamp can grip some of the meat of the top too.

Just blades sorry

At the moment? In bed... Sorry, couldn't resist it! Plymouth...shouldn't cost too much to post.

I'll stick my neck out here and say a 45 degree scarf is insufficient as a slight opening will look like a short gap and gives little gluing surface. The minimum I think would be 6 : 1. (Length /thickness). Clamp back to back, one piece ending six times a thickness from the end of the other...

If there is someone out there in need I have a complete set vgc for a modest contribution to the Chubber SLW Fund (Scottish Laughing Water)

In case it's not been said before, turn off the fuel **** to stop small I\C engines. Empties all the nooks and crannies.
