    need a new battery drill

    Was it a lithium ion one Bob ? If so could you just buy a bare unit? I killed my trusty makita cordless after 10+ years. Drilling 80mm holes with it finally finished it off,I had to remove the battery and throw it in a sink full of water, it got a bit smokey !!! I've just replaced with another...

    Finish on tanalised timber

    It'll fall off...dont ask how I know lol. Its says on the tin not to use on freshly treated timber, instead wait for it to wear/silver first. I thought it would have been fine on some 4x4 posts I machined but it started to peel after a few months. I've used it loads elsewhere (untreated) and its...

    Router stabilising foot.

    Makes you wonder why they didn't put the fence bars the other way on the router base. Its a good solution to that specific router though. All the routers I've used have had the handles inline with the bars so pressure can be applied easily when using the fence. That router handle/knob...

    The channel is scrambled or not available, Humax Recorder

    If you're having to manually install channels instead of them being installed automatically I would think the signal is too weak for the humax to find. I use to get that alot- some channels i was unable to watch. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Ever had a eureka moment too late?

    Red floor paint arrived yesterday to try and nudge my brain into thinking 'if foot is in red square, theres a chance you could bump into mitresaw and knock it out of square' This seemed like a better solution. Atleast I didn't paint the floor with it lol. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Finger (Gory pic alert)

    I guess this is the downside of being able to buy something finger chopping dangerous and use it straight away with no supervision. When I was an apprentice I spent hours on the outfeed of machines apparently helping, when now I realise it wasnt required but was instead used to teach me the safe...

    Staircase

    They look smart though regardless if bits get plasterboarded. Looks like you've some decent racking aswell. Before Christmas I rearranged my sheet and timber storage-makes life so much easier when everything has a place. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    GOT and other TV series

    Thanks for the recommendations Noel. I've seen all of homeland and some of 'the wire' years ago. I'm almost embarrassed to say I watched the entire 'white collar' from Netflix in under a month. I was hooked, characters were great, the ending not so brilliant. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Pallet wood

    Bearers are my favourite when I get deliveries. Just planed up several for a bathroom project and all appear to be mahogany of some description. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Simple oak picture frame

    So true Mike. When I was learning how to fit joints from seasoned joiners one of Jeff's favourite sayings was 'never let the back wood stop ya' inexperience would leave me baffled, but a few wiggles from him would quickly show me where I went wrong. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
