    Round over problems

    Could you make a sub base from something thinner ? This is something I use for doing a potentially rocky/wobbly task- Here's the 1/8 bit in the cordless makita (identical in size to the katsu) It's much easier to control than a traditional 2 handled router and there isn't such a whopping...

    Round over problems

    The 1/8 radius round over bit is my most used cutter now. So my so I put the corded katsu aside and bought a cordless makita to use with it. 1/8 bits can be bought very cheaply from China (less than £2.50 each) This is a particularly good deal - Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Flush Casement Windows

    I do option b. Make the sashes all the same size tight in the frame then plane off your gaps on the opening ones. I've never bothered rebating a shadow gap so it matches the opening ones. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Making a casement window (single glazed)

    Hi Jon. I like to bed the sashes in the frame rebate with silicone then use an additional fixing just to be sure. Usually it's screwed as well in the glass rebate, so the putty covers the screw over. I've also used nails before (smaller hole to fill if you can't fix in the glazing rebate) which...

    interesting staircase

    That is a bit different ! Cant see any strings, I wonder if they made it up as they went along tread by tread fixed to battens on the wall, then plastered in for good measure? Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Fiat V Ferrari

    Wow, they really do only need grinding. You had an absolute bargain. Shame on you for dragging Phil's name through the dirt ! You can buy a grinder with the money you've saved by not buying blue spruce chisels. Thanks for posting the photos and clarifying you completely overreacted. Sent from...

    Bench Hold down

    I have two of those veritas holdfasts and cant fault them. I usually bump the brass head and then maybe turn it a little to get some extra grip. Just need to make sure there's enough thread to be able to undo it. Your bench top being only an inch thick does concern me though. My experience of...

    Fiat V Ferrari

    Part of the enjoyment is doing minimal work on a second hand tool but getting it to work well after. If you're really valuing your time at £50 per hour, in your case I would only ever buy new tools. Steer clear of crapminster stuff aswell as they are well known for letting the customers do the...

    Chunky woodworking - building lock gates

    I saw a 2 inch mortice auger on an auction site and did think 'what a whopper!' I bought an inch clico one for my multico the other week. Haven't tried it yet, not sure if my arms are strong enough lol. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Digital spoon

    Nutritional information for cereal is usually 30grams. Just dip the spoon straight in, add a dash of milk and no need to dirty a bowl !! I weighed it out before and 30g seems tiny for a serving....... Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
