Or the wall. Trap doesn't care which way it sits. 😉 Still snaps on you finger Sideways.😊 Pete

Welcome to the forum. You are a short little woodworker aren't you? 😉 Pete

I'll give you another option to mull over and dismiss but it might help someone else someday. 😉 A sled for the thicknesser. Simply a piece of your favourite scrap of sheet goods or a flat board longer than the leg. It is the same principal of using a sled to flatten twisted boards when you don't...

Forgive me if Hull is in the UK or in Quebec but either way I would contact Jet and ask where the nearest tool repair centres are. It might be more costly than if you find a small motor repair shop near you. Service & Support - JET Tools - Quality Woodworking Tools Bottom of the page. I think...

File folders work if they are not bigger. Stack them, not hanging to keep them flat. Pete

I have no expertise in copyright law but if the saw is long out of production or there is no derived machine still for sale and there is no other official source to get the manual, why would there be a problem posting a PDF of it? They would have been given freely with the machine when bought...

I can feel your pain but in my case it was prairie dogs/gophers in our own yard. When the wife finally decided there were too many I tried a big brand name trap and the little beasties wouldn't go though it and went out a different hole. I found some made in Saskatchewan traps and tried four and...

Too far away for me to take advantage of. Cramps are what I get in my hands when I tighten the clamps too much. 😉 Pete

You could look at wood closet rods. Here they would be hardwoods or Douglas Fir but pine might be available. Pete

They are designed for deburring not making full countersinks 🙄 and they fit in a shirt pocket so will go in any place you can get a hand into. I'll let this go as you have your leads and will find what you need. Pete

The hand cranking works like a charm and only take a minute or two to master. Millions of them are in use in metal and plastic shops all over the world. I have the countersink types for deburring holes and they are neat. Not cheap though. ChaiLatte has the goods on the drill powered ones. They...

Look among the the deburring tool systems. Other brands have similar and maybe other sizes since you didn't specify the size you need. https://www.noga.com/Products/coun/RotoDrive%20Countersinks/EX2001/EX18_-_EX2001 Pete This one covers inside, outside, edges etc...

I'd suggest small workshops as part of you business (popular subject), except the posts over the years suggest woodworkers are either loath to spend money 😡 or haven't any. 😩 Pete

Good luck with the new business. I had a cabinet maker friend that could do phenomenal work but was constantly getting screwed by customers. Main reason was not having contracts defining exactly what the work was too be and not getting change orders written and signed for when the the customer...

Sometimes you can be creative and accomplish the tasks without spending much if anything at all. I’ll attach pictures with the phone and then edit the post. In the 80's when my father retired he wanted to make a Mountain Dulcimer and needed a tapered reamer for the tuning pegs. Before the...

Premixed pails take out all the voodoo of mixing plaster. Open, scoop onto float, close lid, and apply to the wall. Besides around here it is more difficult to find fresh bags of powder. Most of it is past the use before date. Nice work by the way. Pete

Drilling through and knocking in a dowel if a reasonable repair method. My father fixed them that way. Also called a pin and cove joint but usually Knapp joint. The original used a cutter similar to a plug cutter that was moved along a rack until the required number was done on the drawer face...

Here? Only in bathrooms if the builder isn't cheap. Pete

Better not tell us colonists that we are doing it wrong. 😱🤫 It's been working for us since before the 70's when I was a framers helper out of high school and that was near Vancouver where it is just as wet as England. I've never seen any house or building built "backwards" like you do. Main...
