You definitely need a mini digger 🤔

What you need is an mft worktop with benchdogs to stop the machines walking 🤣

I guess if he only wants to fit the skirting, and not get into woodwork as a hobby, a tracksaw might be an expensive day out for 2 lengths of skirting..... whereas buying skirting and just cutting to length is easier 😉

im no expert, but aren't the holes normally stepped / tapered? ie. you chisel out a quarter of the depth at 14mm, a quarter at 11.., a quarter 8, quarter at 4mm and then fit the handle ( with ferrule ) i believe they drive the chisel blade into softwood a bit to hold it, then knock the handle...

Use parcel tape over the boards used to clamp, epoxy shouldnt stick to that 👍

Hi, first off, what mdf is it? Brown or green? Are the edges 'fluffy' in appearance? I ask because there are different grades of mdf and if brown mdf or fluffy green mdf ( lower resin content than trade ) then it'll take a fair bit of work to get it looking decent when you paint it. In which...

Hi deema, i took the numbers off the o.p pik and typed it in ebay.... for my future knowledge, where did i go wrong? Thanks, kev

You lot are cruel.... 🙄 Im sure the chipboard core is fine 😆🤣 On a serious note, if you get it replaced, itd be interesting to see what the insides of the door are like

Yep, definitely a keeper, but maybe think of something other than a table.... If you ripped it down the centre, turn one piece end for end, youd have the makings of a long feature shelf .... bit of resin to infil the holes? Plenty of character there

Welcome to the forum 🙃 You probably arent all that far from yandles.... maybe ask there? They are bound to know local electrical engineers etc

@Spectric , do you have any long lengths of domino? im wondering if you can do a few plunges, insert a 10" long domino and then check the tenon for square and parallel against the workpiece? You might have already done that 🤷‍♂️

😬 You could try ringing sco sarg and asking.... they'll hopefully give an unbiased view, especially if you make the point about buying at a distance. Could you mock up a matching table height with a workmate or trestles, add a top and pretend?

If youve got a couple of old handsaws ( disposable ) kicking about, you can make a notched spreader to suit your purpose. Cut off a legth of sawblade, file the teeth down to within say 1mm high and give it a try.... on a general purpose disposable, thats probably 1mm gap and 3mm tooth, 1mm gap...

The majority of kitchens i have fitted are howdens. The corner posts for base units for instance are 57mm x 60mm. The standard measurement from a wall to the unit that butts up to the corner unit ( lets say a 1000mm with magic corner baskets ) is 631 / 632mm. Thats a unit depth of 575 plus the...

If you consider a truly sharp blade ( a straight razor, often hollowground ) , is usually sharpened both sides, can cut hanging hair with barely any contact..... but it wont last long chopping carrots ( or wood 😆 ) . A knife, generally, has to be sharp and durable so I'd echo the comments...

👏 that's great, this sort of thing is how it should be A vintage stanley 60 1/2 is seriously worth considering. Mind you, as some will point out, a low angle block plane might be say 13°? But the bevel is up.... so add your secondary angle of say 28 to 30 degrees and you get....... A similar...

Facebook is crap. < edit: that wasn't quite what i typed I'd like to be in a position where i felt relaxed and not under pressure 😆 unfortunately most of it is actually self imposed, as whilst i understand it, i cant seem to change it.... constantly worrying about something 🙄

Hi clogs, in terms ofbearning its money, it kinda doesn't have to.... on ebay, people were actually selling df500s a couple of years old, for literally 700 quid. I paid 750 new 🙄 why even bother buying 2nd hand???? 50 quid? Next comes the obvious.... there are posts on here from people who have...

Looks good work 👏 welcome
