Step 4: use said influencer status to blag free wood of some poor unsuspecting supplier who thinks your exposure will help their business.

Just found an app called simple segment calculator which seem to function. The one linked above is only available for devices running an old version of Android, unfortunately it doesn't say how old it needs to be.

The segment calculator app just reports that it is not available for my device as it was made for an older version of Android

Hi all Hope this is in the correct section. I hope someone can help with this as maths is not my strong point. When cutting segments to glue together to make a bowl, I know the angle part is easy that is 360° divided by the number of segments, divided by 2 gives the angle for each end of the...

Has anyone checked to see if the balance weights are done up tight. That's those chunks of concrete or occasionally metal bolted to the drum. Just because it's new don't assume they are tight. I also assume the transit bolts and straps have been removed.

Finally got around to mixing my first batch of abrasive paste I went with the well published mix of 4 parts by weight mineral oil, 1 part by weight white bees wax and 1 part by weight Diatomaceous earth. Once mixed and cooled it set to a nice stiff mix, identical to Yorkshire Grit or True...

Thanks, need for Mask noted.

Thanks for the very detailed reply. I was going to follow the Kim Tipping method shown in the video linked above Which calls for 1 part wax, 1 part diatomaceous earth and 4 parts all. All parts are by weight, so eg 1oz wax, 1oz diatomaceous earth and 4oz mineral oil. And that makes a nice...

Didn't get an answer to my question, got lots of recommendations for using something else but no help with basic question. Which was why was my 2 to 1 mix so much softer than everyone's 4 to 1 mix. Not actually using it as a polish, I was going to add an abrasive to make my own version of...

Hi all I hope this the correct section for this question, perhaps a Mod could move it if not. Anyhow, to the question Anyone tried mixing their own Beeswax polish mix, if yes what mix did you settle on. I have been looking at loads of YouTube videos on the subject and almost all of seem to...

And get some decent 3M Double sided tape, the cheaper stuff is often a disappointment.

Is it a Debit card, if yes someone has opened an account in your name and been unsuccessful in intercepting the card, you need to contact Cash plus Is it a Credit card, if yes see above. Is it a prepaid card, if yes it may be just Cash plus trying to attact you to their services. You need to...

Have a look on YouTube, there are loads of videos showing different methods of fixing cracks in plastic, although most use heat to melt plastic (cable ties seem to be a popular source of plastic in these) and strengtheners like staples or even fine wire wool also melted into the repair. I have...

I got mine from Hope Woodturning just replaced the 40mm wheel with a 180 grit and still use the supplied 60 grit Aluminium Oxide wheel for roughing out.

I went with one of those as well, works like a charm with CBN wheels

Found these with fit the standard M14 angle grinder https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/364291818124?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=wtt_resjrwm&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=cJqjENlHSBe&var=633807951567&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I wonder if its possible to modify a low cost mains angle grinder to take a sanding head, especially one with variable speed.

I used to have a high end meter and tested thousands in my day job at the time and only ever encountered 2 that leaked, one had a crack In the door choke, what is often referred to as the seal and one that had managed to burn a hole in the back of the cavity. There were loads of cheap MW...

Most fail when fat drips down the back of them, then every time you use the oven it gets cooked until its cooked enough to burn, then it conducts and you get a nice light show just before it burns a hole through the cover. Some can be moulded plastic some are a composite sheet and some are...

I use this one on wooden pens, rock hard and a high gloss and dry time is very fast. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334383823273?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=qOZrxmhOTb-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=cJqjENlHSBe&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
