    Looking to buy a replacement router for a UKJ lift without a NVR switch?

    "The Muscle Chuck 2E fits the Dewalt 625 and Elu/Trend equivalents, it will extend the length by around 15mm ideal when used with the JessEm Prestige Lift.

    Looking to buy a replacement router for a UKJ lift without a NVR switch?

    I may try one of the Muscle chucks in it as its been a pain trying to tighten both collects etc..I believe you can buy a extended version of the muscle chuck? Can not find a measurement on how much it extends it

    Looking to buy a replacement router for a UKJ lift without a NVR switch?

    Hi thanks for the reples, I had another look at it and ran it without the extension and it seemed more true, maybe its the extension that is bent?

    Looking to buy a replacement router for a UKJ lift without a NVR switch?

    I have a cast iron UKJ router table and fitted a Dewalt 625 router to it. I had an Axcaliber extention collet fitted so the collet would be above the table top. Not sure what happened but the extention came loose and the router has not sounded right since. I havent used it for a while so...

    2mm diameter drill bit bends?

    So with drill run outs is it normally the chuck at fault? I've seen videos where they change the chuck to a £90 one and it improves it. I haven't measured for run out but I tried the 2mm drill bit shank in the hole and it was fine

    2mm diameter drill bit bends?

    Yes they are decorative. So on a finished fretboard they only need to be 5mm deep. But I was going to build some unfinished fretboards with the fret slots cut and holes for side dots drilled. They would be trimmed to size by the customer. The pre trimmed fretboard size would be 65mm in width...

    Thanks, I bought one of these just to do the one job or any other small pieces work Bosch PBD 40 pillar drill I have a Axminster trade pillar drill but it seemed to large and brutal for the job. Plus I use it for metalwork so it's all a bit oily and greasy. I bought the Bosch pillar drill...

    2mm diameter drill bit bends?

    Thanks for the replies, I will be drilling into hardwood maple etc. The 2mm holes are for the dot markings on the side of a guitar fretboard. So you drill 2mm holes and then push in 2mm plastic rod and snip it off and sand flush. I have a metal fret template so was going to use that but...

    2mm diameter drill bit bends?

    Thanks the lining up to the hole isn't a problem as I will use a notched metal plate/jig stuck to the piece of timber and have a fixed pin to allow the piece to be moved to the next hole.

    2mm diameter drill bit bends?

    I'm trying to drill accurate using a drill press with a 2mm drill bit. On the point of entry you see the drill bit bend a little until it get going, seems to slip on the surface. It was just a test using HSS drills I had so will get some brad point ones to see if they are better. The hole is...

    What are these living in my shed?

    oh! I did hear something a few years ago so baited the shed and then found a giant dead rat...but these could be from something else like you say...mice. The shelf hasn't been cleaned for 10 years or more. It's nice to know I have a bit of company when I'm in there on an evening..

    Buying clear hose by the metre?

    With it been 100mm hose it does take some pulling to get it to its full length. So not usable at that length. Maybe if they give 2 measurements it would help when deciding how much you would need

    Buying clear hose by the metre?

    yes that's the one I bought from. I just assumed it was 7m in the unstretched state. I'd measured how much I needed for 3 machines and started fitting and cutting then realised that there was only enough for 2 machines
