I've got a few Japanese saws now and this one doesn't get used very often so I thought I'd clear a bit of space by selling it. It's in as-new condition. Details of the saw are here: Z-Saw Japanese Hardwood Kataba Saw - 250mm Retail price is £24. Anyone interested in it for £15 (collection or...

A box with a Kumiko lid, made almost entirely with hand tools. The only power tool used was a bandsaw for resawing some thick stock down to a thinner section. Everything else: mitred dovetails in the ash sides, mitres in the American black walnut lining and the lid, jigs for the Kumiko and the...

In my job, I use a lot of symbols when typing and I got fed up with the alt codes as they seem such a backwards way of doing it. To make my life easier I wrote a little application (written in python, but can be compiled to a windows executable so it doesn't require python) that makes symbol...

Sold on gumtree; mods please delete or archive this thread or whatever it is you do with sold items!

This one is sweet chestnut & cherry sides with (believed to be) greenheart for everything else: and finally, this one is ash & (believed to be) greenheart sides, ash lid & base, (believed to be) greenheart handle thing and cedar of lebanon lining:

Today I finished making four dovetail boxes (spread out over two posts on here). I made these mostly to practise hand-cut dovetails. Three of the frames were made while I was on holiday; the other was from a while before then. When I got back I had lots of other stuff on the list (and wanted...

Not yet, but I'll try to get them posted somewhere in the next week or so and will add a link here for anyone who's interested.

Finally, I 3D printed a Maskery pattern dust extractor: ... and yes, I could have made it out of 40 mm pipe and brackets like Steve did in his video, but that would have involved going to a shop, and where's the fun in that? The three brackets each have two very strong 20 mm diameter, 6 mm...

I thought I'd post a little update on the bandsaw. It has settled into its spot nicely and the castors are working well when I need to move it out the way (for example when I wanted to use the milling machine to make my new shooting handle). I haven't used it a great deal yet as I had a lot of...

Thanks John

A few months ago, I made a simple handle to make my LA jack plane a bit more comfortable when I'm using it for shooting: It works really well and has been an almost permanent attachment to my low angle jack plane. However, it has two (arguably rather minor) problems: Firstly, while it gives...

For what it's worth, the retractable castors I used were only £40 and, if you don't have welding gear then wood would probably be strong enough. Alternatively, do it properly & fit a roller garage door: then you'll have loads more headroom and some extra overhead storage space too! :D

Yeah, I've been doing a lot of resawing lately and it was getting old fast. The kerfing saw (more recently I've used another one that was uses a Stanley 55 as a basis, giving the advantage of a fence either side) makes it a heck of a lot easier, but it's still a chore.

Yep, I'm a happy bunny indeed I got it unloaded (in bits) when I got home but it was too hot to do much with it then. I put it together on Sunday morning and even managed to weld🥵 up a simple replacement base for it before the heat got too oppressive: the standard "wheel kit" is very good, but...

As per title, a Bosch GTS10XC Table Saw with all the bits and bobs it came with (including the manual) and a few extras for good measure. These are £660 new (not including all the extra saw blades); I'm looking for £450 ovno (collected from Gloucestershire). As you can see in the...
