Dan, given that you have got £2,200 and must be flush, will you be joining me, woody Alan and Dibs on that Friday evening before the Harrogate show. Curry and beer? C'mon you know you want to share your hard earned cash with us. :lol: Esc.

Sounds just the job. :D

Well done Sean. Your table seems more impressive than ever. I also think you have set the standard for the competition. Regards, Esc.

Hello John, Steve makes a good suggestion. I have just made a pillar drill table using an old kitchen cabinet door. (formica type material) This is a cheap solution, kitchen doors are a decent size for making jigs etc. If you can't get some of the real stuff, it might be worth a look...

Continuing with my banana thread. Has anybody else attempted to dry (on the window sill) those long stringy strands from the inside skin, with the aim of smoking them? Mix a bit with some baccy and smoke in your favourite pipe. Highly recommended........just off to the shed for a quick...

True Dan, quite true. I will be venturing north in a matter of weeks. I'm looking forward to the trip already. Hope you can find time to join me and Dibs for a few beers and nosh on Friday. Hope to hear from any other members who fancy joining the party. Cheers, Esc.

Dibs, Thanks for the list of hotels. I quite like the look of the Craiglands @ Ilkley. The rooms seem half price for Friday night when compared with Saturday and at £54 thats not bad at all, with a breakfast, quite acceptable. I will check this out tommorrow. On this basis I suggest I drive...

Welcome to the forum Phil, great to have you in the gang. Esc.

Dibs, Thanks for the kind offer. Have you decided which day you plan to attend? If you could let me know which road /place/area to look for accomodation. I will do some research. I like the idea of a few beers and a curry, perhaps Dan will join us, or other members for that matter? Cheers, Esc.

Crikey, I hope that doesn't apply to me. :shock: :oops: :)

Say fella's have you seen this beauty on fleebay at the moment. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... :IT&ih=011 I thought you may be interested given your reference to the plane and article in F & C which is also mentioned in the sales information. Very nice looking plane. Esc.

Well done Sean, that has turned out just fab. Sort of industrial, yet also refined. Cheers, Esc.

I wonder if Miss Betty has a spare room for the night at the Tea shoppe?. I don't take up much room - but have a habit of leaving a lot of mess. Esc.

Topical post this one, as I'm in the process of completing work on my own drill press table. Hope to finish work next weekend so will post some pictures. I have made it from an old kitchen door with some incra T track and fittings. I have a square sacrificial insert, never thought of round...

In deed I'm sure you right Rob. Although, when I saw a demo of the domino I thought the baby floating tenon pieces could easily double for biscuits. The domino would therefore seem to be more versatile than a biscuit machine. I don't have much experience so may have to leave this line of...

I have the Lamello but have been wandering if I should have bought the Festool domino? In any event, the Lamello is very well made, a one time purchase when it comes to biscuit machines. Esc.

I am going to make a big effort to attend this event. I will be heading north come the end of November. I expect it will be a 3 - 4 hour drive, subject to the A1. Is anyone thinking of staying over? If travelling from a far? Esc.

Hello there all, Is anyone going to this show in Harrogate? The list of exhibitors looks very impressive, see here. http://www.skpromotions.co.uk/north.htm It almost seems to good to miss. Esc.

Mike, My snooker cue was doctored by Dean at B and W billiards. He is a decent chap and may be able to help you. Here is the web page. http://www.bandwbilliards.com/index.php Hope this helps. Cheers, Esc.

A client of mine took some flying lessons and when I asked him what it was like he said. "It was like driving a car but with up and down as well as left or right". Given that explanation I do not plan to be going anywhere near a plane with him! Esc.
