    What saw leaves the best finish - hand or power?

    I keep forgetting that you don't have a table saw. I don't have a mitre saw, so will leave the discussion to those who do. Good luck.

    What saw leaves the best finish - hand or power?

    I think a table saw with a good blade is best for a smooth finish. Definitely not a band saw(not mine, anyway). I have a red Trend blade that crosscuts silky smooth, and will rip to a degree, if the timber is fairly soft or thin.

    THE FOURTH OF JULY

    Much as I despise Nigel Farage, I am disinclined to mock him for his testicular deficit. Although I can't help wondering whether he takes some comfort from his affinity with you know who. My old school chum Chris C, who played the guitar and sang while I accompanied him on the tin sandwich, made...

    THE FOURTH OF JULY

    "Project fear" was a term used by brexiters, not remainers. As it turns out, maybe you should have been more fearful. I voted, but I can see why a lot of younger people didn't. Like me, they probably never imagined that so many people would buy all the hatemongering claptrap and vote to leave...

    Buying from Europe

    I find it very unlikely, but I've been told that I should get out more..

    Buying from Europe

    So they're unelected and elected for life. Make your mind up!

    Buying from Europe

    Ok. I will try to get out more. I have a sneaking suspicion that I will still find it ridiculous, though. On the other hand, the next time some foreign bike part seller asks you which way you voted, maybe you shouldn't tell them.

    They're pliers Jim but not as we know it (them)

    But the one farthest out is the same size.. Added to which, why would you need less mechanical advantage for the finishing squeeze? I reckon that, with the jaws fractionally open( so still exerting pressure) all the cavities(for want of a better term) would be roughly equal in size, so capable...

    They're pliers Jim but not as we know it (them)

    But why three, all pretty much the same size?

    I think you could be onto something. Holding three identical somethings...

    What "unelected MPs"?

    Joke Thread 4 (closed).

    The article I read said it was American tourists who were confused by the signage that prompted the change. Personally, I think there should have been an apostrophe somewhere, but I wouldn't have felt strongly enough to lodge a complaint.

    Buying from Europe

    So you reckon they're turning down sales just to punish you? Did they ask which way you voted? With all due respect, I find that totally ridiculous. We(or some of us - not me) voted to punish ourselves. Maybe you could substitute bendy bananas or something for those bike parts.

    How would you cut game counters from dowels?

    Have you considered making the counters out of bacon? Seems like the machinery is available.

    Buying from Europe

    Well no, I'm confused. "Non ethnic" is usually taken to mean not part of an ethnic minority. So Stuart thinks we should necessarily be governed by someone from an ethnic minority?

    Probably untrue, though, if Richy says it.

    Wow! Nobody forced you to vote, Stuart...

    Tapered Cuts

    I'm fairly certain there are DIY versions of such a jig to be found on the web.
