    Laguna tools, new to UK market

    Hi Izzyix - Would be nice for everyone I know, but until we are selling 5,000 table saws a year we can't work on those lower margins that the USA are able to. And lets face it that won't happen unless the government create a law that every street must have at least one table saw owner. ;) I...

    New table saw? Lumberjack TS1800

    Hi Petey, nice one on your new saw, but just out of curiosity (ha yup OK I have a vested interest) did it have a CE certification page in the manual? This post is not intended to say it hasn't or cause any concern, but I'd like to know if it has been officially CE certified as I know we had to...

    Laguna tools, new to UK market

    Ha, Isn't that part of the fun getting a new machine though ? ;) 2 sheets of 4 x 4 plywood down on the floor would maybe do the job if it's level - get to end of one sheet, then wheel it to the next etc. I think that's how they built the pyramids? :D Cheers, Nick

    Laguna tools, new to UK market

    Everything is pre-built apart from the rails / rear table / mdf infill table / fence / crown guard /switch It has inbuilt wheels too if that helps? Two man lift when it's un-crated should be possible if you do need to carry it / lift it off the pallet. Pic attached of it on the pallet &...

    Laguna tools, new to UK market

    Hi DBT - Exactly - the important thing with a new brand of machinery is for people to be able to see it to judge the build quality / features vs price, so we have 30 or so experienced retailers who have machines on display (well that's pre-Corona anyway, I know many are still closed..but on-line...

    Hi Craig, we don't sell direct so you will have to buy through a retailer - delivery should be about £80, but different retailers have different rates for delivery. Retailers are listed on our website. Thanks, Nick

    Space X

    That was impressive - no two ways about it - watched it live too - I still remember watching the Challenger disaster in 86 - relieved this has worked so far for them - balls of steel for sure those spacemen

    Axminster Tools Problem

    Well said 'power tools' - I worked for Axminster for many years and know that customer service is a priority for them, but they like us are likely experiencing a massive surge in orders / customer queries whilst operating within staffing guidelines that mean things cannot be as smooth as they we...

    Coronavirus

    This is the logical approach I agree - I don't understand why it hasn't been implemented - I'm now working from home and have cancelled all visits/meetings - I'm OK to look after all my kids - my eldest daughter has Down Syndrome and although she is healthy I find it worrying her special school...

    Dismantling a old style Whitehill block

    Hi Trevanion - If you don't get any answers here, and sorry but I can't help either - then I'd give Whitehill themselves a call - I worked alongside one of their guys a few weeks ago, a top man and he was telling me about some of the calls they get on older products, they are a long established...

    Old Woodworking Adverts

    I think that's a bit of a 'rose tinted glasses' view - successful companies have always realised the importance of quality vs price positioning in the market - the market and competition also changes with time, and you make that decision to build and design to the price point you want to sell...

    dewalt dw1150

    Hi woodcarver - My tuppence worth - I'd reckon the extractor hood would then need to placed somehow over the block/surfacing beds if you plan to thickness with the beds in place - the Rojek MSP310 was a fixed bed machine using this design - otherwise all that will happen is all your shavings...
