BREAKING NEWS Police in Tottenham last night pulled over a local lad and were amazed to find the car taxed M.O.T. tested and insured. It wasn't stolen and there was no stolen goods or drugs found. The driver was sober. He had a full license and no points. A police spokesman said they had no...

A piece of red tarmac and a piece of black tarmac in a bar arguing over who is the hardest: Red tarmac - "I'm hard, me! They put me down at bus stops so huge heavy buses can stop without skidding" Black tarmac - "I'm harder! They put me down on motorways and thousands of vehicles a day run...

Cut these legs on cross-cut sled

Buy from Lidl when on offer They are highly rated, very accurate and the battery lasts and lasts :D

Mine is just a thicknesser Here Excellent machine; snipe only occurred due to long length of timber Just do not fancy having to swap from planer to thicknesser all the time with a combined machine On YouTube there are many ways to substitute the planer with sleds etc

:oops: Not sure what I can do about the snipe :oops: These are the 4 sash clamps bought for the job; 2 aluminium and 2 cast iron from T/S Bench top is quite heavy to move around now

Have you got pocket hole tackle ? You could Glue planks; then [to tighten joints] screw prepared pocket holes to underneath side then remove p/h screws later -- they clamp wood together really well, even without glue :) Can't work on mine today; next job is noisy thickness machine, new...

Shaping up nicely there Copes :D

:) Bought the 500 last week box of biscuits too :lol: worth checking for true level with something like THIS -- check if main sole is in true plane with Adjustable Fence Face Should read zero of course Sometimes can be the odd degree out which throws things a tad

Found the shape 'design' on search engine for Silhouettes They have got a use for it already; For films, internet relay to main TV via laptop Out with the Argos Catalogue; in with la table :lol:

Moon Pocket hole system; no glue used on this table :)

While waiting for the 900 mm clamps to arrive I'm looking at Record 52 1/2 vices on the Bay Car boot sales are not my thing :roll: Some made in England vices have strengthening gussets but not all Is there a difference in quality ?

MB quite right too (homer) Just using up some off-cuts :cry:

Small Oak table top 13 x 16 inches, sides are A4 size

:oops: John; I typed it wrong :oops: 6ft x 23 inches; 3 x 2 inches pieces

Decided to forget the pocket-hole idea; just ordered 4 sash clamps 900 mm So will Domino and clamp the 3 enlarged sections -- might be next week before I can continue Copes, have you got a folding work-bench ? Bolting to wall is OK for temporary......

Thanks for that ED65, it would take me too long to make my own clamps Don't want to buy a set of 3 ft clamps as most likely they will not get used again The bench top is 6 ft x 3 x2 inch; I am gluing and clamping them into 2 lots of 4 and a five Did you notice the shiny new Domino 500 ? --...

Made a start today Don't have many clamps; only those and 3 more smallish ones

ED65; thanks for that -- will now use 12mm, I can find a use for the off-cut :) Now searching for quick release Record 52 1/2 on the Bay

Good post Copes; vaguely similar to the American design that I decided on Likewise no holes to be bored into bench-top at first Bench needs to be simple for me as I'm no joiner :oops: - retired gardener in fact Already got the Redwood in my garage -- My old Mercedes will have it's first...
