For window blind slats try a place that fits them they will have a pile of old ones or samples that might do - as regard thin timber splitting put in position then pilot drill then screw down

Don't forget the Groat - a fourpenny bit

There are quite a few videos on YouTube regarding these - some are well worth watching

Barclays Bank used TC500 when they came out to process cheques and etc that customers paid into their accounts

Superb job well done I worked with someone who bought a similar quantity from a school that was being demolished - at the start he came into work every morning grandly saying that he did 10 tiles or so last night. Things got better as he progressed -- the finished job was good not a good as...

how did you do it eventually?

There must be somewhere in the world where craftsmen would use these tools - it seems obvious there no demand in the UK.

This might sound daft and I might be talking out of my ...... but have you got the positive and negative round the right way when connected to the power supplies - they will be brushed motors maybe they could run in reverse but with less power?? Please ignore my reply if someone comes along in...

Strange but true I also garnered (thats a good word not used very often) quite a few from car boots a retired friend wishing to offload them picked up from freecycle and some that came with chisels and what have you thingies and whatever. Some are full sets and some are singles. Far too nice to...

Some years ago I visited a fairly newly setup men shed and was asked if I wished to join and perhaps take on a trustee or supervisory role or first aider role. I thanked them for showing me around but said at the moment I didn't have the time as I was busy enough pottering around with my own odd...

Having just seen the photos why not just drill out the screws and use nuts and bolts to refix the items using countersunk bolts (are they called machine screws)?

I had a similar to one of these some time back so the following is from memory. The locking pin you mention is just to lock the spindle to stop it turning while you are removing a chuck or faceplate Nothing to do with steadying/locking into position the headstock ---- you could take it out as...

+1 for battens screwed from the inside so you dont have ugly rust/screw marks in due course.

If the deal is good moneywise without the fence, then go ahead and allow him to send the item with (or not the refund he offers). If the item/price without the fence is not a great deal allow him to cancel the sale. All he has to say is item broken or missing and the sale is finished, ebay will...

When you have the alignment centre and start to fit it between centres - perhaps if it's a little tight don't be tempted to force it in - I would loosen off or remove off all bolts that hold the lathe bed to the workbench. Wiggle the bed around a bit to ensure its not held down then try the...

I have a grandson living in Washington near Sunderland - parts of which don't seem the best properties but worth having a quick online search to see what fits your budget

Does the job thats just fine then! About the sharp top corner near the door does it catch your thigh as you go through the doorway and need removing like the other end of the top?

Maybe I'm not old enough but I do have memories of smelly paraffin heaters and extra water vapour so not in a million (or a lot of) years would I get one of these. Who knows what emissions they would output to the user in a confined space?

If you are uncertain then ask the seller to cancel the purchase as you have made a mistake. they should cancel if they are reputable. As you haven't paid IMO the most they can do is ask ebay to ask you to pay and you reply saying you've changed your mind and ebay might perhaps log in their...

It will be as good as the saw blade
