    Accoya cracking in the sun?

    I'm glad I saw this. I've never used it yet but thought the same as you. I've used tricoya sheets a lot and that doesn't move at all. Was it just one piece of wood that split or all of it ? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    My recent injuries.

    That sounds nasty !! Were you surprised at how quickly it became painful ? Crikey. The bruising starting to make pretty colours on my hand. I wonder how much icing it helped cause it's no where near as painful as yesterday. The doors have given me a headache. I bought around 20 for 50p each...

    My recent injuries.

    Some really good information there Keith, much appreciated. To be honest I thought xrays would have cost 300-500 quid so finding out they cost under 50 is absolutely Jeffing fantastic !!! I've found one that does x-ray (if he thinks it'll help) and has endless positive reviews. That's a relief...

    My recent injuries.

    I'll have to Google the difference between osteopath and chiropractor cause I'm not entirely sure how they differ. If I went the chiropractor route would I be best to find one that does xrays ? Are they necessary or could it just mean more efficient treatment. I've seen a bone cruncher a few...

    My recent injuries.

    I took a few pics when I was over the workshop but it's not 100%. It's still surprising just how quickly the extractor fills up. This is a 110 volt saw ( for site use aswell) so the switch on the front of the station turns the extractor and transformer on at the same time- no way of using the...

    My recent injuries.

    That's horrendous ! Did it take long to recover, is it completely back to normal now ? If it's only gonna happen once every couple decades I can live with that. I had some codeine tablets to get rid of the pain which 110% worked but they knocked me out for 2.5 hours each time. I'm glad I'm off...

    My recent injuries.

    That sounds nasty! Do you always carry a mobile phone with you ? I know what you mean about feeling a fool. I was embarrassed when I stopped to chat to someone and explained what had happened with the pillar drill. He smiled, leaned over and showed me a massive bloody graze (size of a 50p...

    My recent injuries.

    Thanks guys. It was so frustrating not being able to do anything. When I've been back to work for a few days I'll be thinking wouldn't it be nice to have a couple weeks off though-ha. I've got a couple teeny tiny windows to finish off before starting on a flight of stairs. I might get some help...

    My recent injuries.

    Bank holiday Monday I decided I should finally finish painting my chopsaw station. Before It was only a rough job so I only painted what could be seen. I finished the second coat on the carcase and noticed a shaving or something stuck to the plinth. I bent over to pick it off and my back went...

    Bob I've read your saw thread dilemma but didn't feel I could add anything. How about you get a wishlist of a few machines/tools from Axminster so you could combine the shipping !? That's the best I've got, sorry lol Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    Not easy to change if you've got a massive area to cover though Bob. It'd mean scaffolding and I'm scared of heights lol Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    New workshop floor

    That's one of my biggest workshop regrets was painting the workshop white. It's such a sterile and horrible colour to try and work in. I've painted my bench area a magnolia ish colour and it seems such a nicer warmer environment to work in. As daft as it sounds I'd choose any colour now other...

    New workshop floor

    Well it looks very tidy ! Instead of skirting perhaps some fairly large quadrant or scotia would cover the outside joint.....unless you're planning on spending 1000's of hours in there and want it to look extra posh lol. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    Making a framed ledge & brace gate - getting it square.

    I completely agree. Have the brace going from the top corner, straight to the bottom corner. This will mean notching it in the middle rail but it'll be a much better job. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
