I think I know that house Trevanion, is it in Carmarthenshire? If it's not it has a twin.

Can I ask, given the early nature of this thread, what is the definition of an all-solid uke? I get the laminate and solid top options but in terms of an all solid instrument are there options within this definition itself. I ask as I've seen build blogs of people doing a solid top and solid...

I keep toying with building a uke, watching this with interest and soaking up the advice along the way. Good luck SotA.

I appreciate this is literally the day after and I'm seriously not trying to be facetious but imagine the regeneration in new and old skills this will generate over the next few decades, not to mentions jobs. I appreciate there will be many assessments over the next year/s but I suspect there...

Ahh, didn't know if some details were leaking out as I hadn't seen any as yet. Not sure they will find anything forensic after that intense heat.

There is a brand new Draper complete kit on Ebay right now with courier option. They are asking 395 or best offer plus £75 shipping. Do a search for 'BRAND NEW Draper CTS200 Cast Iron Table Saw'. Not mine and no idea whose it is.

:?:

Draper do a 200mm cast iron saw with 1.1Kw induction for a little over £400. Can't comment on quality and the table looks a little small but given your bench area it may be an option. Yandles are a good source. That Scheppach is a little less in Poolewood as well.

Definitely not a rebrand. Similar design to a limited extent but when you have a portable light weight base housing a saw blade and relevant table / fence / slide mechanism there isn't much you can do differently design wise. There is no link between these two machines other the intended...

Are you pushing the edge into the stone or pulling the edge back across it?

I can see what you mean they can be pricey and are in investment to some degree relevant to the kit you put the on. I was just very lucky as I found someone who bought them on a wim and I got them a lot cheaper than RRP. I'm surprised there are not more similar designs as the concept is sound.

I have a set of Jessem Clear Cut guides on my table saw. Just superb, they hold down on the surface and also pull it towards the fence at the same time. Easy to setup and never had an issue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaSLoaDgpeE

These are the guys that did big dog with Darpa? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNZPRsrwumQ There was a spinout smaller one that the lab technicians kicked around to show it could withstand knocks in use and the T'interweb went into melt down for 24 hours whilst people were appalled at its...

It is 310 bar to be fair I've heard a lot of issues with Dewalt firing pins. Was initially tempted to go that route but ended up with a Fasco a few months back. I'd never heard of them before I went looking for a new framer but they seem to be the mutts nuts in the air tool world. They even do...

Just saw this online; https://www.airbowsystems.com/ Airgun with onboard high pressure air tank making it untethered. I believe (may be wrong) they have started shipping in the UK at £600 including a free purpose built (310 bar) compressor. Interesting design given its the first iteration of...

Just to add I have started using CMT recently; only have a few, one for a a SCMS and one for the table saw. Happy with them both in performance and price however I've not heard much from that many others on CMT circular blades.

I use google cast throughout the house, works with Prime and anything else I throw at it including audio only devices.

Most of my table saw blades are Forrest and they have stood me well. I've seen them less and less in the UK these days though.

+1 for speaking to insurers to tell them it's there. You have to anyhow. Guy next to me has a small shop with a multi fuel burning diesel oil and despite similar claims from the manufacturer that it is 'free from odour' but I would seriously question that. Just my £0.02 and opinion. The one in...

I'm a big proponent for FabLab, I was involved fairly early on and a very small part of the MIT team a good few years back. We (Wales) don't seem to have taken FabLab up to the same extent as the rest of the UK / Europe. They are often woefully underused and neglected by local / central...
