    Morning from Rotherham

    Welcome Chris, Just up the road from you. I've not been to Albion timber yet, but they had plenty of quality product at the Harrogate show. A bit further afield there is British Hardwoods and Duffield Timber. Ian

    How do I get into cnc

    Well I'm a relative novice. but this is what I did / do. I looked at the space I had and decided on which machines would fit, what their capacity was, whether they could be upgraded. I decided on the Saintsmart ProVerXL 4030. Bought a few more bits than what was supplied. I then looked into...

    The usual Festool dealer there is Alan Wadkins. Festool Tools & Accessories | Alan Wadkins Toolstore you might want to drop them a line with what your interested in and what show prices they may have. My experience is that you'll probably save little, but maybe get some free "merch". A few...

    Bosch PBD 40 Drill - Table?

    There are many positive comments on here, mine included, on the Bosch. I've owned it a number of years and found no need to change it. The only issue I had was the laser guides were slightly off. Followed a youtube vid to adjust them - absolutely spot on now. I think if you were doing some...

    It's my new therapy

    I used to use a Crown one similar to the one @Derek Cohen (Perth Oz) shows above. I had really mixed results. Now I'm pretty sure it would have been operator error, and not the burnisher. Once I saw matt's video and got the Arno one, it has worked every single time, and I can create finer or...

    It's my new therapy
