It depends on the value of the item. https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad/tax-and-duty

Aurtsol also makes a "Dursol #34 Honing Compound" https://autosolblog.blogspot.co.uk/2013 ... pound.html https://autosolblog.blogspot.co.uk/2013 ... n-and.html From description, it seems "normal" Autosol Metal Polish leaves behind more protective coating but is there any other difference...

People are not paying directly to read or download the scans but they are hosted on a commercial website, and one can argue the scans are acting as promotional material for the business, and that's the financial award. One thing I disagree with strongly is the website claiming copyright; on...

That shouldn't be just called "camellia oil". I think most people, when they see a bottle of "camellia oil", would expect it be be 100% camellia oil. At £60 per litre, it would be much cheaper to buy it anywhere else except from a tool shop.

I just saw this: http://www.geologyatsheffield.co.uk/sag ... ng_stones/

It's a guess, maybe that was done by a user, possibly because a corner got damaged.

I've just had a look on mine, bought some time ago, there is a tiny amount of set, just noticeable if you run your fingers over the teeth. Maybe about 0.2mm, definitely less than half a mil.

It just shows he didn't know what he was doing, he was trying to demonstrate something dangerous without what the the dangers were. Of course afterwards he says it was stupid.

It does look like there's a missing part. Pic from: http://www.datamp.org/patents/displayPa ... p?id=10413 Patent: http://pdfpiw.uspto.gov/.piw?PageNum=0& ... id=0252065 The price of the OP's link seems to be just something picked at random, and it's not "flawless" either, the blade has a...

If the neck (bolster) and blade is one piece of steel then more likely it's forged. It's the boutique chisel makers who cut the blade out of sheet steel and then adds a separate bolster. I've got a few of these chisels bought new (early 90s), I never use them because of the smelly handles!

Business seller, wrong or faulty item: seller has to pay for return of goods.

I see the "seller" has over 500,00 items for sale! When I see a vague item location like "GB" or "UK" (or even "Shire County" *) I immediately get suspicious. If it's a business seller, I then check the address; in this case it's PO box number in the US. I think business sellers who refuse to...

Terms and conditions for the seller: https://pages.ebay.co.uk/shipping/globa ... ml#newUser It seems at least the seller does not lose their money. And if the buyer gets their money back, then this situation is a bit unusual because if a seller sends something using Royal Mail or a courier...

Who confiscated the plane, is it UK Customs? If the seller hasn't got the plane, did they get the money? AFAIK all Dalbergia species has been added to CITES Appendix 2, and needs a permit to cross borders. There isn't an exemption based on when the item is made. Although there's one exemption...

How about removing every other teeth?

Hello all, I got this carving tool recently, it's worn out but the interesting thing about it is the name on, I think it says: "S. ADDIS . JR". There are no other markings. The second dot is the decimal point, half way vertically, or it could be just a random smudge. And the last R is...

In the video, he says he prefers the Thor mallet now and doesn't use the hammer anymore. Using a metal faced striking tool on a wooden chisel handle is just wrong!

I think the general "rule" is a carpenter's mallet (not the round carver's type) for chisels with wooden handles. I suppose a soft faced hammer would be OK too. For plastic handles, you can use anything.

I found these pics: Top left is the type in the catalogues, top right is likely user made. But what about the bottom one? More pics:
