    How do these cuts not cause kick back?

    @Sandyn you obviously got the carp postings then mate, mine was brunette and Bulgarian while I was in Berlin and had an approach from a very ugly Kazak when I was working for the UN in Africa but he did offer me a lot of cash.

    That is the very stuff, will order some in the new year. Thanks for checking The yellow tape is great for large pieces but I prefer to use the white stuff when cutting pictures together due to its thinness as the layers can build up quickly with lots of small parts

    What type of glue for a workbench?

    Believe it or not but the chemistry shows that glue actually works best if you can get a joint tight enough for the glue to be 3 molecules thick. One on each piece and one in the middle for them to bond to. The phrase "never too much glue" is in fact complete rubbish, it weakens the bond and...

    What type of glue for a workbench?

    unless you are going to use it in the middle of the atlantic or only in the garden, then any wood glue will do the job as long as you have decent meeting faces and no gaps. I have made benches with PU PVA Cascamite Resin and even hide glue. It makes not difference as long as you have decent joinery.
