Hi Tim, how big is your machine is it possible to transport it?

Wouldn't the strings tickle the wearers nose? or do you tuck then behind the ears. :lol:

Not a lot.

You could make a 65mm plug from a block of wood and drill a 35mm hole through it for the hose. Ajust sizes to suit a nice fit.

That's great more the better James. Any idea how many sausages to get? Lol

The last time I bought Birch I got it from Timbmets in oxford but it was rather a long time past. would Tulip wood be a closer match than Ash.

It's not for use in tight corners is it, but I guess it would soon clear the bench top.

Your on the list Merlin, and Bodger "could be" what does that mean? I'll keep an eye out for you!

And there was me thinking you had built a cat trap! Would a small block of wood behind the water bar to prevent the bolt engaging work?

You normally expect doors in buildings to open in, coal sheds and privies open out, I in! Fwiw the door on my workshop opens out, I had no choice in that and just about every visitor has trouble with it, they don't seem to be able to get out quick enough!

Steve you are not building a shed so please do it properly and swing the door in, why does this mean that the space inside is dead? You need this space to use the door whether it opens in or out anyway.

Hi Mac can you come over to the get together on the 7th of Sept? If so then bring the wood with you and cut it up then if it helps. Chris.

I don't know if this link will work but if it does it's one heck of a drill press! https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=1500468473503360&fref=nf

Bit of a reminder this is as far as I concerned still going ahead, Sunday 7th September but it would be really helpful if people intending to come along let me know so I get an idea of numbers. It being a midday thing I am wondering if a BBQ would be in order? Chris.

I thought you wanted knots? there's no knots there! How about Eucalyptus ply? or even a far eastern plywood.

Sounds like you don't want Birch plywood! have you tried softwood ply such as Elliotis Pine or Wisa Spruce ply these are more your building/packing grades where surface finish is not so important.

On the other hand would you sell your car to a stranger for a piece of paper that may turn out to be rubber, or would you prefer actual spending money.

Have another look, it may not be attached to the motor may be to the control gear, unless it's running on three phase it will I'm sure have one. Or has it got a speed controller?

Do you actually want a ring fence or would a guide/bearing do the job, I have only used a proper ring fence a few times in 30 years and then I made up from plywood to suit the job in hand.

The best and easiest way for me would be with a tenoner, in two goes as Steve said one for the slot and one for the mitre.
