Hello Ed, I think Ash would be a good choice. I have a quantity of Ash ready for a Roubo bench, my next project. Have a look at this super bench - something to aim for. http://www.talkfestool.com/vb/woodworking-projects/3068-benchcrafted-split-top-roubo-bench-build-21.html I like the grain...

Very nice video. I love to see these old crafts what a pity they are dying out. I wonder what will happen to all those lovely old machines when the old fella retires? Got me thinking about having a go at making a rake as well. Cheers for posting, Tony.

Hello Ryan, Glad to have you on board. I am sure you will find this place friendly and helpful. There are one or two members in Norwich, WoodyAlan and Chippyjoe I think, spring to mind, there is also a member not far from me but I can't remember his handle. I am in Sheringham. As regards...

That's me on the far left in the picture above. A cold evening in the garage at the back of the pub. Pity we can't smoke in the pub anymore. :cry: :cry: Although, apart from less comfortable surroundings the smoking ban has not really affected the club. We used to organise a big open smoking...

To all my fans here is a link to a repeat of the show. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00vdhr1/Have_I_Got_News_for_You_Series_40_Episode_1/ I have just had an email from the club webmaster who reports 150 hits on our web page in last 15 mins plus one membership enquiry...

My picture in a couple of the shots included in the Pipe Club of Norfolk newsletter. (The missing words section of the show) Hollywood here I come! :lol: Tony.

Say fellas, I have only just this week taken delivery of one of these JSP impact protection face masks/ respirators; http://www.toolpost.co.uk/pages/Health___Safety/Respirators/respirators.html First impressions are very favourable, very light compared to the trend model. Some noise from the...

Sorry I missed this event due to a snotty nose... :cry: :x

Hello fellas, Found this short film on pipe making at Charatans factory from some years ago - which I thought may be of interest. The fella cutting the bowls at the start, on the circular saw didn't seem to have any fear of the blade near his fingers! Before the days of H&S...

Best of luck Dev, I haven't forgotten my promise to post some pics of my new workshop. Good luck, hope all goes well, Tony.

Pekka, If you have a chance don't miss an opportunity to visit the Kelham Island Tavern. This is the best real ale pub in Britain (for the last two years). CAMRA top award. Look out for some "Abbeydale Absolution". Eight pints and you will be absolved, well I was for about 48 hours! ...

Hello fellas, Been a while since I have posted on the site. So busy at work etc... I can't make it to Yandles this year but have plans to go to Cressing Temple in a few weeks. Hope to meet up with one or two forum friends at that do. Glad to see that your all still kicking about. Cheers, Tony.

Delicious, well done fellas. 8) :D Tony.

Please can I climb aboard...........(closet football fan). I promise to do some good mincing around :) Author part 1 :oops:

All this world cup fever, has got me thinking about my old subbuteo set, that and a game I played as a boy called striker. I might just bid for this; http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUPER-STRIKER-/120579942282?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Toys_Games_Games&hash=item1c131fe78a Rolling back the...

Is it just me but I am fed up with this already and it hasn't even started. I don't think we will do very well - underperform. I am going to make a few predictions; Wayne Rooney will be sent off at some stage and miss the game we loose as a result. Ledley King will be knackerred after two...

Good question Wizz, In the short term, I am going to leave my Scheppach P/T in there as I am planning to upgrade this later in the year. I have my eye on the Hammer A3-31 but need to save a bit more cash to buy this later in the year. The rest of my equipment is slowly being moved. At the...

Cal, I would endorse using your accountant for this service. I would say that as a practising Accountant but there are good reasons as mentioned above. I usually charge around £500+ to form a company. This includes the formation fees but also the additional work of advising the various...

Hello Dev, Sorry I haven't got round to posting any pictures and some commentary on the new workshop. I have been very busy at work, a holiday and perhaps more over coming to terms with all my new space, and moving from my old shed to the new building. :D I am away again at the weekend but...
