Yes. And a Record No.04 or 05 cap-iron is also the same. Cheers, Vann.

Look for a cap-iron then. But seriously, probably your best bet is to pick up a 'spare parts' plane. Cheers, Vann.

You're not Russian are you... :) Cheers, Vann.

Here in New Zealand it's illegal to send cash in the post. I'd guess that applies to parcels too. Cheers, Vann.

And you try an' tell that to the young people of today - and they won't believe you (with thanks to MP). Cheers, Vann.

Not a very helpful post, oh horney one. "You're doing it wrong but I'm not going to help, just sit back a wait for the blood to splatter " is how I interpret your post. Would you like to be a bit more helpful? Cheers, Vann.

I wonder if a small modification to move your crown guard back a tad, might be possible. Just enough to enable you to see the start of the cut - while hopefully not enough to allow you to cut off too many fingers. I'm not an experienced operator, I maneuver myself so that I can see the start of...

I don't see much difference in finish. A coach screw has an ugly hex head (which you can recess) - the other end is completely hidden. A coach bolt has an ugly hex nut (which you can recess) - the other end is slightly rounded. The coach bolt has more clamping force. When using coach (or...

No point in getting offended over an unintentional slight - if you then turn around and purposely insult two surgeons. Cheers, vann.

You just need a fine flame so that only the very ends melt. Cheers, Vann.

Yeah right. So what other online auction site do you suggest he use instead? Agreeing to those rules is what you do to get on the site - just like when you tick the box to say you've read the terms and conditions on any of 100 sites. You just tick the box... Cheers, Vann.

My knowledge of Wadkins gets shaky when it comes to Wadkin-Bursgreen models, but a friend has a late 1950s Wadkin RZ with an optional 4-knife cutterblock (most RZs came with the standard 2-knife head). The 4-knife head uses the safer wedge method for holding the knives. Good luck with this...

At a live auction things are different. You get time to check the item before you bid. And you know you're buying from a reputable seller (i.e. you know the item exists). I think it's fine to ask for reassurance even after the ebay bidding is over. I've seen handplanes with the cutting iron in...

Which is of course, why I said "...but the 3620 is 3/8" max. not 1/2". I figure if they make an 8mm collet for the 3620, then it's likely they make one for the 3612. Cheers, Vann.

I'd just like to say we've had a lovely summer's day here in New Zealand. Cheers, Vann.

I have a Makita OEM 8mm collet for my Makita 3620 (and use it often), but the 3620 is 3/8" max, not 1/2". Cheers, Vann.

Other opinions may differ. Cheers, Vann.

Wadkin AGS 10 cute? Bol locks. You want a Wadkin PK - they're cute... ;) Cheers, Vann.

Yes I think you've just confirmed that you are indeed an old fuddy duddy :) Ahh, so that's what that was about. All I get is... Cheers, Vann.

I don't know what size of bandsaw you're looking for, and I don't know if this applies to smaller bandsaws - but for bigger saws, have the seller remove the table. The trunnions under the table are a weak point and often get damaged in transit. And it lowers the centre of gravity - which helps...
