36deg in the shade in Bedfordshire. 30deg in my workshop I have not even been upstairs in the workshop as I think it would be more like 40deg.

You have now changed what you originally said. You said that most of your work was done away from home but now you seem to be saying that you are earning a living from your shed. To get the advice you need you need to be specific about what you are doing my guess would be is that you are doing...

I have the SIP version and have no problems with it. I very much doubt that the Aldi version will suit your requirements if the SIP hasent.

If you have described your business correctly my advice would be to tell them that the building concerned is not a business premises. What you describe is no different to many thousands of self employed people who mainly work away from home but use their home as an office and storage space. If...

You do seem to have a lot of problems with the tools you buy.

Use a d shackle to put the slings in and put you hooks through the d shackle.

I use Everbuild D4 from Toolstation for almost everything now but also found that once the bottle was half empty it became difficult to get out of the bottle. I purchased a Gluebot mini from https://woodworkersworkshop.co.uk/produ ... ttle-16-oz and as long as you keep it topped up you dont...

Nice to see that you still understand that there is still a good use for a biscuit jointer and that square you showed us and I made for myself has now become a go to tool in my workshop. Many thanks for sharing.

I think it's a glue tube squeezer.

Card in the morning phone call in the afternoon. He is also farther to my grand children and it is far more important to me that they spend time together as a family.

Personally I think that if there is enough fine dust on the floor that could cause health issues if swept up it should be remembered that all that fine that has settled on the floor was initially airborne dust and that is the issue that needs attention. (homer)

Seriously bloke if all you want to do is polish your toes their are better products.

If you have got the blade on and it stays on then I think it is just an issue with the tracking that is easy to fix by adjusting the top wheel. Don't forget to move all the guides away from the blade until is is running correctly and then readjust them to suit. Don't get overly worried with the...

If you are really concerned about noise levels your brad nailer is probably noiser than your compressor.

I like to enjoy my woodworking along with a passion for old machines and that gives me an insight on how people used to do things before it became fashionable to only have the best machines. Using a treadle scroll saw is a bit like the old joke can you rub your head with one hand and your...

I think you may have misunderstood my post. I own 6 scroll saws two of them are electric powered and 4 of them are old Hobbies treadle powered saws, I think that my total investment in all of them is less £150 all being sourced second hand. I think that skill can over come the failings of lower...

I have reread your original post and my reply and I am sorry that I seem to have to offended you. The point I was trying to make is that it does not matter how good your tools are you will struggle to get good results with poor quality materials. Scroll sawing is just a part of my woodworking...

I think you are looking at things the wrong way. I can understand your annoyance with the problems you had with your first saw but you were given a refund that you then put towards the cost of the most overpriced saw on the planet. It now seems that you want good results using the cheapest...

I am sure that Steve's jig is great but I can't help but think that joint is not the best joint for an outside gate and I fail to understand how we have moved on from an outside gate to fine furniture making.

I am sure that you will be able to find someone local who can fix that problem without you having to go to the trouble of importing a new item from China. My concern would be how soft the item in question seems to be.
