A long time ago I gave up on digital calipers and purchased a Mitutoyo dial caliper second hand and it is a well made tool that is a pleasure to use but I did miss the digital ones and about 18 months ago I purchased the Powerfix one from Lidl for £7.95 and all I can say is that 18 months on I...

Personally I would forget all this stress and would recommend that for accurate problem free sharpening just buy a set of 8x3 diamond stones from ITS problem solved.

No it won't.

I've been through this process many years ago and all I would say to you is that you need to be aware that it is possible that you will get a reduction but it is also possible that you will get an increase. I don't think that you need an agent to do it for you but you need to research how much...

Not quite sure what dicker is but if both you and Mike enjoy it fair play but I don't think I will get involved.

You will destroy a wood cutting bandsaw cutting metal on it.

I think so because every time you take your foot off the switch you cut the power to the machine and the nvr will trip out so next time you press the switch you will have to reset the nvr that kind of makes it having no point in having a foot switch.

Steve. The switch you have linked to is the exact same switch that I have. My saws don't have nvr switches so I just wired the foot switch into an extension lead, if yours does I think you would need to bypass it. I can't help on how to do that but it should be simple enough for someone...

Everbuild D4 is waterproof so why not?

Everbuild D4

Let me think about this, if someone wants it it's £300 if no body wants it you will put it in the skip.

If you can turn it on with your finger why would a cable tie not work? This is a normal situation and even the cheapest router tables come with a remote switch to control the router.

If you want one for woodworking only then I would suggest that you look at radial arm pillar drills from the likes of Sip Axminster ior Sealey. They are not heavy duty engineering machines but for woodworking only they are the best option in my opinion.

A few years ago there were several threads about foot switches and I think that many of us including me purchased a cheap item from ebay. It works a treat and cost about £8 plus a bit of wire a plug and a socket. It may be worth doing a search on the forum to see if you can find it and see if it...

+1 for Tally Up. For hand tool woodworking videos try Mat Estlea who has a free online course on YouTube.

There is no way that the indeed roller has worn down enough to make it inefictive. Just go over it with a wire brush and lubricate the bed with machine wax.

Brilliant.

Would you like explain what is meaningless about spot on?

Before anybody goes off and buys an expensive engineers square I would suggest you look at this. https://www.tyzacktools.com/products/14 ... quare.aspx Full stainless steel a lot lighter and far cheaper than an engineers square and totally spot on square. I have no involvement with the seller...
