    Tool Batteries

    Funny because the Dewalt after market I just purchased is a Vanon. From what I gather they are based in UK too and enclosed an address and contact details which is always encouraging from an Amazon order.

    Tool Batteries

    I hated the days when you had to carry round that long reel of cable, then go and find a plug or ask a householder if they could plug in and pass through an open window. All for a two minute job

    Tool Batteries

    There appears to have been a big price increase in makita18v batteries, or they just crept up in price while I was pre occupied drilling away.? Maybe this was always going to be the case as more folk changed over to buying bare battery powered tools. Let's face it bare bodies are relatively...

    Have I undersold myself here?

    I can only tell you This. .My friend asked me to make an oak table. Price no problem. Did the plans and agreed he would pay for the raw materials. So I took him to my wood supplier who worked out the prices in front of him and gave him the bill. He looked at me and asked for a word. Turning he...

    I've only ever used metal drawer runners once before on a tall set of drawers for a cd .cabinet. At the time I got a lot of ribbing for not using traditional drawer making methods. One thing with extending metal drawer runners, and for designing them into a project is the advantage to easily...

    Just a couple of photos. Phone playing up so problems posting. Cracking on with a bookcase back to finish it off, so I'll post the finished thing when it's done and finish applied.

    I picked up a sheet of 19mm oak veneered mdf for a fiver with no idea what to use it for. I have always built with traditional methods, m&t raised panels dovetails etc. Having read so many different views about pocket hole joinery and not wanting to waste this mdf I set about my first ever...

    The US ***

    I just wonder if the EU stockpile of vaccine hasn't been used because they can't make up their minds which country to send it to? Whichever country they choose would be seen as being biased against the rest? I can see the squabbling now.

    The US ***

    You raise a very interesting point that people just don't seem to understand. The full extent of antibodies after the injection takes some time to build up in the body, then they start to reduce. Testing of first and second *** candidates to establish how long antibodies give you this...
