    Used Scheppach TS4010 anything I should look out for?

    I got one, had to change the switch internals, apart from that seems bullet proof and very very accurate. Little bit unstable on the undercarriage when sliding carriage and table extensions fitted but apart from that alls fine. Run mine on 13amp plug with no issues. Recommend to anyone.

    I have an old 6" x ^2 post holding a porch, it weathered to a lovely silver and the cracks just added to the appeal. You can clean any marks with oxalic acid wash, I did this then gave a coat of Danish oil, came up a treat. But oak will crack....

    Cost of spares in the UK

    I FOUND IT BY SEARCHING THE SWITCH PARTNUMBER (as printed on it) on Ebay, so I guess using the manufacturers code was more helpful than the machine part number.

    Sip dust extractor has stopped working

    Can you check continuity in case a wire is broken in the lead? Failing that possibly the switch.

    Sound proofing cabinet for shopvac

    If you are going to all that trouble to build a sound proof box, why not construct a weather proof box and locate outside the workshop and just feed the inlet to a port or gate in the wall, I have done similar with a 125 liter barrel outside the shop as a separator. Quick and simple solution to...

    Safety cloth/material for buffing

    I use the cheap blue workshop paper rolls for everything from polishing, applying oil, clearing up and blowing my nose...... Cheap and effective, never has an issue with spoiling finishes or polishes either.

    Cost of spares in the UK

    I tried all the UK electrical suppliers I could find and no one had this item. I could get a similar spec however due to how it is mounted in the switch box it had to be the original or the wires and contacts would not fir, also the switch box was molded to fit this particular component. I dread...

    Branding iron

    How about a straight forward pyrography kit, then you can add whatever to where ever you wish. Or simple lazer engraved plaques which can be stuck on, or an old fashioned ink stamp and a coat of varnish.
