I use a reasonably thick piece of mdf. 18 or 25mm. Use a lip and spur bit to drill the carcases. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Just had a look at the new forum layout on my pc. I think it looks really really good. Keep up the good work to all involved !! Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

I find circulating fresh air really helps with paint drying issues. I do like the look of old machines,they have a certain character about them. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

I wasn't aware my post had become a sticky and have only realised it had been moved to a new section. I'm running on empty this week. Mother was taken to hospital and I've been looking after my niece and her vast array of pets since, I've only had a quick read through of this thread and agree...

I suggested a pencil and someone else added it was a good piece of kit. You completely ignored both suggestions ! Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

This reminds me of how my parents use to argue. This was my upbringing. Now they're apart it's easier deal with- part of mothers day present Life's too short, time is precious Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

I had a small bit of flush trimming to do. It was on really horrible osb board. I didn't want to risk my trend cutter, so bought a silverline one for £3. I was pleasantly surprised. Not only did it leave a decent finish, it also seemed to hold a decent edge for the entire job. Sent from my...

Pentel graph gear 1000. Around £10 on ebay. Best mechanical pencil I've ever used. It's retractable as well, so the delicate tip stays out of harms way. I've lost count how many times its fallen out of my pocket onto the concrete floor. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

That's a very smart looking shed!!! You must be well chuffed. I like the contrasting colours on the window surround and corners- nice touch. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

There isn't one on tapatalk Mike (that I know of) and I wouldn't want to miss out on all the decent stuff you share and post about anyway. I know how they must feel when they get an abrupt response from you. The dressing down you gave me made any of my comments feel completely worthless. It...

Mike you were exactly the same way with me when I first joined here. You made such an impact I almost ended up leaving cause you spoke to me in such a horrible manner. First impressions mean a lot ! Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

I'm shaking my head Mike at your attitude to relative newcomers. There's no need for it. I'm sure you can word things differently so you don't come across as an arrogant bafoon ! Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Hello Jim. It's always something I looked at getting. These were part of a job that made me research it a little more- note the pile of casements stacked up on my bench I had around 70 windows and doors to hang and thought one of those cutters would speed things up. In the end I thought I'd...

You could make some delicate wedges with a very narrow taper. Make sure you get the grain to match the horizontal pieces of wood. Tap those in with a dab of glue on the end and it'll look much better than dark glue spots. If you got a bandsaw making the wedges will only take a few minutes. Sent...

If you can turn it on an hour before you go in I reckon it'd do the job. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

The bottom rail cut is just a rebate with a bevel. The router will form the rebate easy enough. A shoulder plane would form the bevel, or a table saw or skillsaw tipped over to atleast 9 degrees. It depends on what tools you've got. If you've got a shoulder plane you'd be able to make a bevel...

Yeah that's correct. The right hand side is the out side. This is how I'd make the 2nd pic t &g door. Just remember to allow gaps between each board. At least 1mm, maybe 1.5 if they're over 4 inchs wide. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

As a bonus though, your new design will get over any drainage issues Don't groove the boards in the bottom rail. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
