Yes white spirit, then douse in washing up liquid and give it a good massage then rinse.

You can wax the timbers if you like but really they should be left dry with no finish on them.

Like you I have a 1650's Herefordshire Black and White cottage. There should never have been black paint on any of the beams inside or out. I stand to be corrected but I'm fairly sure you do not need permission to strip the paint off. If you are not living in the property then I would definitely...

Free to anybody that can make use of them. I loved these pencils but I have lost three in a very short space of time so have given up on them before they bankrupt me!

Seconds and Co in Presteigne sell reject insulation boards at a great discount especially if you can pick them up yourself. The boards are perfect but they will vary a little in the thickness which is why they are rejects. They give a range of thickness of say 60/65mm. So long as you account for...

Tung oil and beeswax are not the right products to use. Tung oil will take forever to cure and pure beeswax whilst it smell lovely remains sticky and will attract dust and show every fingerprint. If you have sanding sealer then use that as a primer, one coat either brushed on or rubbed in with a...

Hi ArtieFufkin. I have a copy of Planecraft which you are welcome to have. If you PM me your address I will pop it in the post for you.

I get mine from Kremer Pigmente https://www.kremer-pigmente.com/en/suche/?q=Fish+glue&l=+

It’s a prie-dieu or prayer chair.

You can get quite a variety of ready to go first aid kits and I think they are pretty good but you will end up with many items you will never need or use. My wife is a nurse so she stocks mine for me. Finger cuts, as you have found out are easy to come by, for minor cuts a mix of good quality...

Im not sure using an acid would be the right way to go. Ivory is essentially dentine, Im no expert but I think acid would eat into it and spread out. I think I will try to find a hand engraver as the ivory works very well with hand tools, so should be the safest method of transferring the...

It could be reshaped, the shape I have is one created by eye on the lathe so cnc would be an option providing it would just skim the surface. What sort of cutters are used on a cnc? Would it leave a surface that would just need sanding with say 240 then 400?

More good suggestions thank you. I like the idea of getting a hand engraver so I will do a search this evening and see who is out there.

Thank you for those replies. I have two problems, one, I have only ever seen a CNC machine on the telly but guessed that would be the machine to do the job! Two. Words like CAD and Rhino and surface mapping mean nothing to me! oh, and three I have already made the disc, for the reason it is...

I have to make a patera to replace the one in the photo below. Is it possible to transfer an etched design onto a curved surface with a CNC machine?. The new patera will be very similar to the old one but with different initials dates and a trumpet logo.

As others have said, bring it into a drier warmer room. It would be worth taking out those staples and screws then put them back in after it has shrunk back.

I think many you tubers especially Americans but many English too have a presentation style that can be hard to watch, Katz is borderline for me, some, even when they are talking about something I want to learn from are unwatchable. That said, I have the Katz Moses stop block on my sled, it is...
