I can't for the life of me ever consider going back to those fold out twin tables. Whoever designed them needs shooting. The one piece lift or no lift at all tables are far better. As for Charnwood. I bought a table saw from them, then realised nothing fitted into the table tracks. I couldn't...

I've used Danish oil for many years. Application on the last couple of projects from new tins of Rustins Danish oil have resulted in a sore throat and tight chest even with minimum exposure and lots of ventilation. Tonight I downloaded their safety data sheet and find some of the ingredients...

My 84 year old, now deceased, father-in-law was given water tablets by his doctor to help with water retention. His wife was driving them into Morrison's car park when he was taken short. He exited the car, put on his cap, grabbed his walking stick and hobbled off as quick as he could into the...

The original poster isn't talking about felt tiles.

This is my solution. I have the same problem. I've researched and had companies out from roofers to professional countrywide roof moss removal companies. On no account power wash. It does degrade tile surfaces and makes them porous. The roof moss must be scraped off. In between tiles too. Then...

I'm up to my neck in it. During a romantic evening I held my wife, kissed her deeply on the lips and looked into her eyes. " You're the most beautiful woman on our street" I told her. She pushed me away. " You used to tell me I was the most beautiful woman in the universe" As she stood with...

I keep dreaming I'm eating a two foot marshmellow. When I woke up my pillow was missing. Tommy Cooper

Thanks. I understand now(y)(y)(y)(y)(y)

What I can't understand, and not only this project and it's not a dig at the quality of work, why you would use selected timber and then paint it black?

One problem I found was that if edges are ground timber wouldn't pass through the riving knife as the slot cut was always narrower than the thickness of the knife especially in these thin saw blades.

I worked for a company that made newspaper printing presses. Loads of huge steel rollers were made. So it went like this. Roller came in and rough turned on a huge lathe. Final turning. Turned Under size. Roller sent to welding shop for a layer to be put on the roller. Roller back to turner...

The wife lost most of her hair last week when she sneaked mine out to blow dry her hair Well in her case it was, Blow Sucked. Mind you a few dabs of yellow glue and she's ship shape again.

There are always a few ways to cut material safely without removing the guard. The problem is thinking the table saw can do everything for that's what they imply.

And then add extra for the kettle, toaster, tv, radio and if your not getting on with the wife, the bed side light.😂😂😂

Always put in 4 more than you think need😂😂

I think most people go through this phase especially when your making different pieces all the time. Every project usually ends up introducing news skill, or skills that you might have used years earlier that the little grey cells can't remember. Don't go overboard watching youtube. The majority...

so I take it that's a yes? Or was it a No..😁 lol The only bit I can add is that I worked a punch tape controlled boring machine for six months, back in the early 70s serving my apprentiship. First article inspection took days referencing everything off the datum before you even pressed the button.

There seems to be quite a lot of cnc questions turning up in one form of another. Should they be included in Gen woodworking or have their own Topic heading for discussion? Is it really woodworking or mass production? Is it a step forward, another string to the bow like any machinery used in...

I think an Axminster course would be good for you. They run different courses and for all levels. There are fundamentals you need to acquire from looking at your posts.

Thanks. Its been a while since I did this.
