I have a rag in a can and I use 3 in 1. I store mine upside down in another can the next size up.

I can remember the days when my farther would spend 1/2 hour making a small hole in a brick wall with a rawlplug punch and hammer. Black and Decker started advertising electric drills for mail order in the national press and that was the beginning of power tools for the diy user, I think for...

Please not another Brexit thread the last one caused lasting damage to this woodworking forum and we could do without that again. Noel in your position as a mod on the forum you would be well advised to delete this topic rather than get involved. Perhaps we could revisit this topic in 12 months...

I have 3 Vaunt diamond stones from ITS . At the moment I think that they have an offer on them and that would sort out your first problem. I have 300 600 1000 these are the first and only diamond stones I have so can't compare but I have been really pleased with mine.

And that without doubt is how all this will end.

When you say it died do you mean it has seized up due to lack of oil? Paul (retired vehicle mechanic)

Bear in mind that you won't be able to do internal cuts with a bandsaw but it would be better for the outside shape. Looks good for first attempt.

I have no experience of cutting gun stocks but I think a bandsaw may be a better tool for the job.
