    Bringing goods from the EU

    But of course for UK manufacturers they must still use EU standards in order to sell into the common market otherwise their products won’t be allowed. And if the UK creates a new standard for entering other global markets then this is a double or triple cost for them! Cant see the sense of...

    Impressive Tool Cabinet

    Have watched a couple of Cosman YouTube’s, and I like some of what he does, especially with plywood. But such a cabinet is to my mind way over the top! No way could I fit such a thing in my 10x10 ft wooden shed 🤣. I do need to do some more reorganisation of my shed though but I tend to hoard...

    Post a photo of the last thing you made

    I thought I would show another item I made recently. My OH saw a small piece in a catalogue about a small table which can act as centre piece on a dinner table and also sit on our sideboard. As usual I said I could do something like that! So, after rummaging through my old wood stock I found...

    Post a photo of the last thing you made

    A bench I have just finished for my daughter and son-in-law. They are both keen skiers and were interested in having a bench made out of an old snowboard and two skis which they no longer use.

    Chedham's Yard

    I gasped at the cost of £1m to restore this yard which was quoted by the County Council person. I could not believe my ears. And it just sounded like a sanitised version of real working sheds with no feel. The Council must have added on at least 40% in contingencies, overheads, fees and health...

    Tormek 1200 Review (N.B. long with biggish pics)

    Hi yes good review. I have had the 1200 version now for about 4 years.

I have to admit that relations...
