    protect and survive

    In the 70's I remember all the stuff about getting a couple of doors and creating a shelter in your house. My parents improvised on the advice on the TV and planned to move the sofa about 4 feet from the wall, then lean a couple of doors behind that to form a shelter a la...

    How long do you keep your tools for?

They decided to keep me in for the night in a mixed observation ward. They also decided to check on me every 30 mins or...

    Post a photo of the last thing you made

    More a case of "the last thing i finished" than made, as I've been making this on and off for a few months in between other things. This was more of a trial run to test out new (to me) ways of dovetailing. I'm pleased to say my accuracy improved during this. The new ways were using blue tape...

    Jet 10 - 20 Plus Drum Sander

    Must read the post; the manual, as far as i can see doesn’t include the product dimensions - but thanks for your “help”. For reference the dimensions are 510 x 510 x 690 according to https://www.igmtools.com/jet-10-20-plus-drum-sander/ I dont think i have space for this so will pass.

    Yeah Nelsun they said it was coming from Festool - but I won't be around to receive it until the 30th, so rang to make sure they don't deliver until after then. Cracking deal though.
