    Which vape?

    I'm pretty much an expert on stopping smoking. Must have given up (ho ho ho) something like 10 times, even though sometimes there was a couple years of clean in between. I'm properly stopped now though, been many years and lifestyle changes back it up. Because I also found it easy to stop, I...

    I reckon they could stop fracking and just get all their energy by attaching magnets to Reagan's spinning corpse.

    Exactly that. And sort of terrifying as well. Good innit :p.

    eBay scrapping selling fees for private sellers

    I've had a pile of stuff for a long time that I've been meaning to sell, that has some value. I'm now glad I didn't get round to it :) .

    I wonder if woodieallen still feels justified on putting me on ignore because of my "insulting" behaviour.

    TBH, if you were going to have any of Hitler's people, generals would probably be a good choice. Mostly. And town planners. Maybe.

    You know what Priti Patel used to do before becoming an MP? Public Relations for tobacco companies. She must have a heart of gold, bless her.

    So what are peoples thoughts and any potential impact on yourself

    There's a possibility that the NI employers hike might impact the profit share bonus my company runs. If it's no bonus at all this year (and we're a bit quiet this year so dunno) that'll be around 500 quid I've lost out on. But I still could get all of it, don't know. My MD has said nothing...

    Beginner router kit

    I am a bit annoyed. I took delivery of £98 Makita wired trim router today. It comes with a only a 1/4 inch collet and no bit. I have no 1/4 inch bits until that set turns up, so I can't even check to see if it works. The Bosch plunge router came with an 8mm straight bit and 8mm, 6mm and 1/4 inch...

    Beginner router kit

    Dammit, I didn't actually put the link to what I was asking about. Again: https://www.rutlands.com/products/solid-carbide-spiral-up-cut-2-flute?srsltid=AfmBOoocAozUjHXUyPt1Pb1oTAXRgTiJ5xLULC6bXf3z2SsvKrTSEhvZ Everything 1/4 inch is 50mm length bit. Is that some sort of standard for 1/4 inch?

    Beginner router kit

    When I look at this page, all the 1/4 inch bits they offer are 50mm long. Is this some kind of standard. I'm at work so I can't check, but when I look at the online manual for the Bosch it actually doesn't say what length bit is recommended. I mean, if I want to do some deep mortising, then...

    Yeah I'm kidding (I guess, I don't know how much it weighs). It's more of a space thing. 10x8 foot, plus a need to give a bit of it over to actual shed storage don't give much much leeway.

    Work so hard you cripple yourself

    So what about the basic premise that, hypothetically or otherwise: The state needs more funding and must increase the tax burden. A marginal increase in taxes paid by the very wealthy will still leave them with a very welathy status and lifestyle. Increasing the tax burden on those with very...

    Cool Cool :) . All I need now is to rip up my shed floor and add some RSJ :D . Would be lovely. Any sort of stand drill would be lovely :( .

    Beginner router kit

    OK, ordered the set. Can anyone advise on the spiral upcut bit that I want to use for mortising? We've discussed in the other thread how 1/4 inch isn't ideal, but it's what I have. I want to do mortising on larger joints like table legs but also (one day) nicer thin cabinet. I guess two...

    Hmm, you may be right. Maybe I'm not as smart as I think I am. :cautious: I must go and think this over urgently :unsure:
