Hi Britman, my printer went t*ts up in 2020 and I just haven't had the time to sort it in the last many many months. I needed 25 parts and used 3dhubs last month - I think their business model is they outsource to whoever can print - not sure if they are UK based either? You can get quotes...

Hi Rob, no worries at all and yes just PM me on here & I will sort it. (y) Sorry Rob we have closed our showroom to general public until further notice. This is a company decision as we are so flat out we really haven't got the time for visitors to be randomly calling in, alongside the obvious...

Hi Rob, Yup interesting as our manual dimensions are wrong!- very sorry about that and I'm surprised it hasn't been picked up on yet. You are the first in Europe as far as I know so you win a free blade ;) Just PM me if you buy it / let me know who it's from and I'll stick an extra 60T blade...

Hi Rob, sorry for my late reply - I haven't been 100% last few days - just general kid germs I think now mine are mostly back at school and mixing it like petri dishes again bringing all sorts back to me.. good for the immune system though. I'm in the office tomorrow for a container and will...

Interesting thread - I'd have gone EV for latest company car, but didn't for two major reasons 1) Cost of lease for a decent one was way way over budget despite looking at the offset vs co. car tax BIK & even if I pay some back. 2) I just can't risk doing the mileage I will be doing again...

Hi Martin, Maybe check out e-bay or similar and consider a second hand Jet JBOS5 - we had virtually no issues with them & along with 5 spindles they were solid and well built machines. We sold loads so there may be some around 2nd hand possibly?

If only at the time when I was working for Elu 25+ years ago I could have pointed customers via time travel somehow to threads like this. A marketing dream for longevity and re-assurance. Yes it was more expensive, but it was also v good quality - how can you say that at the time to customers...

Interesting thread - thanks to all contributors it's been a good read After attending woodworking shows for at least the last 25 years I've always been amazed at the amount of people who carried their lack of fingers as a badge of honour and insisted on telling me how they lost them whilst...

CE regs - we took decision to go for standard NVR switch due to timescale to launch & factory input - still looking into it to see if we can put paddle on as I'd like to see it too if we can. Cheers, Nick

Thank you for your positive feedback Blackswanwood and apologies again you had this issue. Genuinely it's the first time we've ever seen this specific issue amongst all the saws we've sold so far and hands up it should not have got through the factory QC checks as they are usually very...

Really? - I hope not. The ones I caught keep me updated on micebook - they loved their initial biscuits and peanut butter - and are now enjoying their new adventures in Leicester - several have since taken up new hobbies. Seriously I didn't want to kill them - giving them at least a chance was...

Hi Julian, I fully agree and my earlier post wasn't to talk down the impact it can have. It is crucial (more so now people are choosing on-line only due to obvious reasons) and we do a lot more via YTube, but I'm aware we are not yet doing it properly across all platforms and I'll hold my hands...

A very good friend of mine works for a well known brand of 'top end' professional powertools & I know he gets loads of contacts / sales via instagram. It certainly seems better than facebook for attracting the correct audience & he is always saying I'm missing out. But then it needs managing and...

Just back on EU shipments & to present the facts we are experiencing & there is no political view attached to this, but this is what it is at moment - we really hoped all this would have been sorted by now... so frustrating I had a good retail customer just outside Belfast asking for a lathe...

Just as an update as I said I would, my daughter hasn't been feeling 100% since the AZ *** yesterday and spent a lot of time today back in bed with a headache and some chills which a hot afternoon bath with her music blaring out sorted, but these are really just minor side effects we guess and...

Bit like Posh Spice 🤣

Hi Rorton, can't really help sorry, but going off on a tangent about 15 years ago I visited a bespoke joinery company who were in the middle of building something very similar for David Beckham - it was a superb oak pool table that flipped in a similar way - I did think at the time surely he has...

Hi Garno, they took my wife's contact details when she took my daughter in this morning, and said they will add her to their list of people who they call towards the end of every day to use up any vaccines left over due to 'no shows' - we are walking distance away from the surgery & can get...

We heard noises in the loft last December and got two humane traps - baited with biscuits / peanut butter - possibly could be worth a go also as well as trying to block holes although I read you can't block every hole? Caught 5 within 9 days and had none since. I let one go 30 miles away near...

Thanks Garno, our view is we are likely to be OK on probabilities, and I'm not sure we can even request that - her brother is 10 and her sister 16, both fit as fiddles and myself and M are in decent shape for our age - despite me still smoking - but it's really been our eldest that has been our...
