    Bosch GCM 12 GDL - Replace laser with saw shadow line

    @Westy619 I'm very interested in one of these... but a couple of questions before I pull the trigger... I assume that it's an LED light so... What's it's estimated lifetime and is the bulb replaceable? What wattage is it? Is the shadow line visible in daylight? Thanks

    CNC'd MFT top, Parf guide or Trend jig?

    Can I make a suggestion... If you have an MFT at one end and route one or two 20mm slots in the bench at the other end, when you need to use a long rail you can align it using the dog holes on the MFT (if you use raildogs it'll be clamped firmly in line with those dogholes) then you can clamp a...

    CNC'd MFT top, Parf guide or Trend jig?

    Very good, it's come out accurate enough for anything I'm likely to need - dogs in the holes line up perfectly in both directions with a straight edge and the rows/columns are nice and square according to the largest square I have (600 x 300). At some point, if I'm bored, I might try the 5 cut...

    CNC'd MFT top, Parf guide or Trend jig?

    I used the cncdesign jig to make my MFT top, to my mind it has one big advantage over the Trend jig - it's larger at 2 rows of 11 holes verses 2 rows of 5 holes and, to quote Trend 'When using a jig there will be a cumulative error that cannot be avoided when indexing the jig on existing holes.'...

    Jet Washers

    When you're looking at the pressure washer specs, don't just look at the headline PSI figure. With a pressure washer you need to look at both pressure and flow rate as, at a given pressure, the flow rate dictates how long a job will take - small pumps can generate high pressure but low flow rate...

    sliding mitersaw confusion

    I've got a cheapo Evolution mitre saw (non sliding) that I only use for quick & dirty stuff, like chopping featheredge to length in the garden. I got it because it was cheap, lightweight and I can set it up on a workmate virtually anywhere - it's not very accurate but serves a purpose When I...

    Jet Washers

    Yep, Kranzle would be my recommendation - I went through a number of the higher-end K'Archer/Nilfisk pressure washers that broke down within a few years. Then in 2014 I bit the bullet and bought a Kranzle Profi 160, it hasn't missed a beat and is still going strong. A part from their great...

    Lighting

    LED strips like these are under an inch thick and give out lots of light https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07GCL3LQ7 If you don't have a lighting circuit, you can just wire them up to a mains plug

    Getting small swirl marks with Festool RO150 Sander

    As part of a process of elimination, why not try a test without the vacuum hose attached - if the swirl marks don't appear, you've found the culprit and can concentrate your attention in either reducing suction further or rerouting/supporting the hose. - if they still appear, you can...
