Interesting.... I really, really like WSH and I need to buy a 5 1/2 from them (I believe the only UK Quangsheng supplier?) so I think I will ask them to check it over before they send it out. Thanks for sharing.

Just received one of these planes; I've had the Luban block planes which are lovely before but not one of the bigger Quangsheng variety. The sole was almost perfectly flat on receipt - although the back of the blade did take quite a lot of work. Bedrock design made it very easy to adjust the...

Hi all Illness has meant that I have not looked at this page as much as I have should have. Sincere apologies to those who feel I have wasted their valauble time - it was not my intention at all to upset people as I am a regular and supporting user of the site. I am going to try and edit the...

Yes please if still available - PM sent

Hi all. I'm looking for a good quality mortising machine - maybe something like a Multico or similar? Must be in good working order and single phase. I could travel but I am in Leeds area so could we say no more than one hour's drive from central Leeds as a limit. Many thanks.

I get so many students at my classes who have tried and failed at home with a new eclipse style guide. They are so badly built that most just won't sharpen even vaguely square. The Veritas side guide (£35 ish) is a lot better but still not as good as I'd expect from Veritas. The Veritas...

Well I finally tracked down a Robert Sorby set at G&S. Arrived the next day. Look great. Can't wait to get them working. Thanks all.

Very useful esp. Paul - thanks all

Good evening. As above - has anyone used these chisels. I have for bench joinery and they are great value but no idea if this translates to turning. Thanks in advance. (Also for some reason loads of woodturning chisels (Sorby in particular) seem to be out of stock all over the place??

Lucky enough to have one of these and it has made me look at it (and its price!) in a whole new light. Huge care at every stage Half the video felt like it could have been mid 20th century! I shared the previous concern for the employees' safety - I've never worked anywhere like that though...

Merry Christmas Has any got a Luban No1 plane surplus to their rerquirements? Let me know if you do! Gracias Nick

Hello Nova Comet II owners. I am really interested to hear your thoughts on using your machine - both positive and negative. (I've forum-searched of course and you-tube searched but keen for any updated and recent information you may have) Many thanks in advance

A few thoughts for you on a Friday evening. I really love this forum. Huge experience and knowledge - a cross section of views - pros and amateurs - young and old. It does seem to occasionally get a bit heated but bubbles back down again and most seem to end up as friends. I was very...

I was there on Friday morning/ lunchtime. Plenty to see and buy. But I found it was painfully overcrowded. Maybe not too many people but no where near enough space? I suppose this is a good problem as it shows the level of interest in woodworking - I wonder how the official attendance figures...

After a lengthy on line exchange with Stanley/B&D/Dewalt I was asked to return the router for repair. I did so and have just got it back un-touched...... Handwritten note says: "known design issue. currently under investigation. Recommend tighten clamp with pliers..." So a £389 router is not...

Good afternoon. I'm curious as to whether anyone has a dewalt DWE 625 or similar with this (see picture) type of depth stop adjustor and lock) We are really struggling to lock the depth guide sufficiently tightly using the small black plastic knob in the middle of the depth guide adjustor...

I LOVE my supermax wide belt sander! Bought it at Harrogate last year. I second the "make your own belts" from big rolls. Way, way cheaper and just as good.

I'll stick for now - but who knows in a few weeks! Thanks for your interest.

No - it's exactly the same spec as the Axminster package.

Hi All. I bought this some time ago and the box has not been opened. It is exactly the same as this from Axminster; comes with 2 blades and the sharpening attachment thing. https://www.axminstertools.com/veritas-router-plane-701927?queryID=9a144849b7ee488f8963b93202bb53de I would like £140...
