Have you thought of decking planks, treated with pre cut grooves for grip and shedding water?

The problem with most LPHV extractors is they do not work well with small diameter pipes. so if you could increase the extraction underneath to 125 or 150mm diameter it should improve. Also try connecting your crown guard to a shop vacuum just to check if the current arrangement does not work...

A fence on a router plane is not essential but it makes the plane far more usable. I think the Veritas model is good value given all the options they have. I bought direct from Lee Valley.

Just a question before you get too far but have you checked building regs they used to say something about building close to the boundary?

Steve People do not make money authoring technical books in any format. Some do it as a marketing tool for the main business. Some do it just to pass on the knowledge. You simply will not sell the volumes to offset the production and delivery costs. Publishers on the other hand make money...

Here is a link to the Aigner products http://scosarg.com/aigner-contermax-tenoning-clamp.html both the one in the main picture and the associated products at the bottom of the page. not cheap but serve a purpose and offer an alternative to push sticks if you are worried about stability with...

Morfa If you work on the basis that the rule is that only thing that should get within 15" of a blade is the wood you are cutting and a push stick or two, you minimise the risk.

We used to do it by hand using a brace but now in an electric drill set very slow

There are several things that could be done to improve the situation: 1. A false bed made of MDF or ply giving full support to the material being machined, and 2. fit the Shaw guard, and 3. Use a Aigner safety device if machining short lengths to span the gap

The £40+ version is only worthwhile if you need the diamond plate. The £5 conical sharpener is great for sharpening the inside edge of the chisel as long as you make sure you are square on the chisel. The £40+ version has guides for the cone sharpener which reduce the risk of being out of square.

You need to have sufficient filter area to handle the actual air intake When you say 3000M3/hr what size duct is that based upon. The problem is that if you use a smaller diameter say only say 100mm you will not achieve anything like the airflow. In simple maths terms if the design duct...

For cutting tenons I use this block http://www.whitehill-tools.com/catalogue.php?pid=2507 If you speak to Whitehill they will supply the correct nut for the recess to fit your spindle. This block can also double up for the moulding you want to do, again Whitehill have a good range of cutters...

Derek. Your going to have to give us a bit of a clue. The thing is the whole site is aimed at discussing woodworking generally. It is then broken down into sections. So having seen your perplexed, I looked again. I am now perplexed as I do not have any idea what you want to discuss. So What...

Make the lot in green moisture resistant mdf

Measure to the green line rather than the blue.

The problem with bandsaws is you need two extraction points one at the bottom wheel and one around the open blade. It is therefore difficult to get efficient dust extraction without going for a massive air volume. The model you highlighted is not a large volume machine. Having said that I used...

Make one. As an apprentice I made two a large chest that you cannot pick up and a smaller one like this https://oldhaml.wordpress.com
