    2 extractors on table saw?

    Sam, I do not think it is correct to state the gullet clears fully on every cut. I have a 315mm Rip saw with only 14 teeth. It cuts 100mm oak like a hot knife through butter but it does not fully clear the gullet and so without crown guard extraction some dust gets thrown into the room even...

    Fitting a wind brace to an existing timber frame

    AJB stainless steel is quite common in oak frames to strengthen difficult joints. Being stainless steel it does not react with the oak. http://carpenteroak.com/inspiration-and ... ase-study/

    Fitting a wind brace to an existing timber frame

    You could get some stainless steel angle bracket and bolt the frame and braces to it. not pretty but would be functional. You could mortice the angle into the ends so it is hidden

    2 extractors on table saw?

    I have been doing this for 2 years. It is worth getting a remote switch because it gets boring having to switch the shop vac on separate to the chip extractor. I find it is a massive improvement especially with fine dust. You will next look to upgrade the crown guard to catch even more dust.

    Too large for a door

    It is no different to an old fashioned timber garage door. A pair of which would be close to 8' so one door would be about the width you have. I made a pair 10 years ago and they are fine. As long as there is a substantial brace, I see no problem

    looking for inspiration

    +1 for a stool but maybe a bar stool with 4 curved legs and rails and a carved seat. If nothing else you can use it in the workshop to sit at the bench. It is very good practice with mortice and tenon joints, curved work and a bit of geometry. A small display cabinet to go on the wall or on a...

    Formica

    I bought 1 sheet from Snowsgallery on eBay. He seems to have a varied range. I am not sure if you could specify a colour and pattern or just buy what he has at the time. The actual sheet was good and it came well protected rolled in a box. Delivery was next day.

    Festool - almost persuaded !!

    If you pull the saw forward there is a spring loaded metal clip that locks the head about 50mm further forward than fully retracted. The blade casing is such that you can then cut a piece of 120mm board which is stood upright against the fence so that the cut uses the back of the blade avoiding...

    Poor dust extraction `

    I think you know the answer. Yes A circular saw need a very large air movement to properly clear the dust.

    Festool - almost persuaded !!

    A lucky escape :wink: If you search the internet from time to time some of the sellers are much cheaper than the official price. I got mine here http://www.powertool-supplies.co.uk/saw ... aws-kapex/ If you do not need the laser and angle finder the 88 is an option.

    Cutting groove with rebate cutter on router.

    The only problem I see is how to stop the speltching. If that does not matter then it should work just fine.
