Sounds like a proper jacket with arm protection might be a wise investment. Adam <shudder> what a awful thing for your friend.

I'd split it along the lines of heavy processing in one - e.g. routing, planing, drilling / sawing in one, and the handtools/construction/assembly glueup and finishing in the other. Stuff like mains drills, nail guns etc can't get used that much surely? One thing to think about is which is...

I sawed them off using a Japanese pullsaw. Got a piccy somewhere but can't find it currently. Ahh got it. Only a small image, but shows what I'm doing. Adam

Heres a couple of pictures of one I did recently. The top has profiled edges chamfered down at 45 degress to make it look "more interesting". Adam And one of the construction... [/img]

I don't know where you are going with that comment Devon, but you are on a road to nowhere. I'm locking this as it'll get messy. Sorry folks. Adam

I was also due to fly out of Heathrow. I just got on the phone straight away and changed to Sunday. I didn't know whether my flight would, or wouldn't be going but decided the number of people multiplied by the difficulty of getting there was such I'd rather not even try. For a long time it was...

Sounds like he did rather better out of that than you did eh?:wink: Adam

Get two or three railway sleepers, buy a cheap and cheerful shed, drop it on to the sleepers (which keep it off the ground and although they might rot, probably not in your lifetime!), add a few shelves floor to ceiling, buy some plastic square "tubs", and take everything out to the "storage...

I'm in contact still. He's doing some whizz internet conputer-ery type thing in, I believe Huddersfield. Here got it. Wavestreaming was originally formed over 2 years ago by internet radio enthusiast James Mulvany - reselling shoutcast from a single shared server. It has since grown heavily to...

Thats a nice link. Thanks. Adam

Roger, Check this TLC site, you can put in the load (remember volts x amps if you don't know, therefore, 16amps x 240= 4kW for sake of argument, well, you can see it should be fine. (strictly speaking). 4% is the max allowed voltage drop I think. OK its twin and earth, and you are probably...

You could try the electricians forum on screwfix. I've just bought The electricians Guide http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Main_Index/ ... index.html and its superb for these type of questions. Ideally you want your smoke alarms on a seperate spur, which is not 30mA RCD protected (although your...

Didn't someone on here have trouble with their Hammer - particularly the after sales service when they found something wasn't square/rigid? Dunno, perhaps worth a search? Adam

Welcome back. Lilac walls with royal blue skirting boards? Nice. cough cough. Hope you get back into it in no time! We too are doing up a place but the "decorating" bug is already wearing thin, and I've not even finished two rooms! Adam

I use some plastic handled ones for opening tins of paint. I save my manky screwdrivers for stirring them once open. :oops: :oops: :? :shock: Oh dear, I'd better go and hid in the bunker. Adam

How about making one in "minature" to see if it works? Adam

Well done. Adam

Nor me, I was just thinking it odd to pick up on a hammer handle, when chisel handles are without a word considered for replacement even when purchased brand new. Adam

Can you get to device manager on your PC? Assuming you can, if you click on Universal Serial Bus controllers, then I can see straight away onr of mine is a Intel(R) 82801FB/FBM USB2 Ehanced Controller. The others aren't marked as USB 2, just USB. Adam
