Hello and welcome, I’m accused of being Grumpy sometimes, and personally I see it as a positive character trait. Lots of roundy roundy woodworkers on here.

Not to deride Sedgwick at all, I have two of their machines and would buy the same again, but I also have an SCM Minimax planer thicknesser which has been superb. Mine has a Tersa 3 knife block and the finish is probably good enough for most people as a finished surface. Just hope it can widen...

I’m sure it’s the first thing you checked but is the base set at 90degrees to the blade?

That had just about disintegrated!

Wishing you all the best with your move Chubber. Good to be near your Daughter.

Nothing to stop you making your own, this is one I made to replace a horrible 3 feet long thing that came with my Minimax combination mc. Slides in and out and works just fine.

Never heard of this, could you tell us a bit more please? Ordinary hand soap? How is it applied pls. Just did what I should have done first, looked it up lol. Interesting but as it says it needs reapplying every year it’s probably not for me.

From the little I’ve read that sounds fair— Damn, sorry crashed the jokes, blast !!!!!

Well it might be brill, neat, and make people’s lives complete but there’s nothing showing! Big gap at the top of the opening comment

That seems a big shot in Festools own foot to me. Looked online here in the us and came across this, can’t get on festools site, don’t know why.

Also divide drawer bottom panels, yes this is how I have always understood it. Just don’t google muntin by accident. No I mean it, I told you not to!

Think you’ve done all that was needed there Derek, as said something cramped to the table but I thought possibly an apple corer and peeler, extremely popular at about that time. Read somewhere that the Americans had hundreds of different makes to choose from.

You’re not going to let that stop you though are you? I doubt they have special sniffer dogs for Cheddar

Is it a gap or an infill line on the skirting?

Would be nice to know please.

Once they start on a particular piece they do seem to return for more, so annoying, the only thing you can do is either keep the annoying dog out of there or as was said cover it with metal of some sort. I was called in once and did repairs ( perfectly) only for it to be ruined within a week. Ian

Those steps are without doubt Ash.

I think the whole top is one piece too, don’t suppose there’s an Allen/grub screw which you get at underneath?

Came across Mango wood for the first time yesterday- coincidence. Carroty wood, it’s weak along the grain, easy to snap and like cheap quick grown Pine- imagine trying to chop through it for Dovetails.

First off, sorry I don’t know what it is but fairly sure it isn’t Oak, just the feel of it really, and the growth rings are too large compared to your thumb in the pic, the face of the board does look a bit like Oak but I bet it would be carroty to work. Ian
