I have a cheap copy Alaskan mill combined with a Chinese saw 65cc paid for itself first time out. Used it many many times to make big logs portable and useable I did try a ripping chain but TBH I couldn't really see a difference in the cut. A great bit of kit if you have access to the logs.

Have a look at the Versa chuck I have a couple and they are very good

Ok so we got the report today, thank fully it is at the lower end of the risk scale being the least harmful type of asbestos and was used widely in the building industry - so at least I know what I am dealing with - now to find a contractor.

That was a very tongue in cheek remark Mike, I would of course not just bury the problem, hence my request for advice, besides our local farmer is a tank of a man and a good shot as well ;)

For some reason Norfolk council are one of the few who dont offer collection and disposal, cannot even take to the local tip, if it comes back positive looks like its going to be quite spendy to resolve. All cos she wants green cladding!!!!!!

Looking to replace the cladding on the bungalow with composite cladding, awaiting results of test to see if the old cement type contain asbestos. Has any one had experience of disposing of asbestos, Norfolk council does not allow it at tips or offer disposal so looking for alternative's to a big...

Engine hoist when I moved the VB36 makes a decent dolly and no lifting by hand as it weighs 350 kg

Looks like many of the commercial trailing socket types are rated for up to 2200w, my motor is 2400w si I will have to be careful which one I go for.

So, after lots of soul searching and justifying to myself I treated the workshop to the Rutlands router table, lift and router motor. Very nice machine and of good quality materials. My only gripe is there is no NVR switch supplied, you reach under the table to switch motor unit on / off. So I...

The worx battery one does and is not too bad

I have always used CA and activator without issues as it is moisture activated. Have a look for Lyle Jamieson on You tube he does a great little vide on on the way he uses glue blocks, its the method I now use and seems spot on.

So what router should i put in here, I like the TRITON tra001 for the above table adjustability and a powerful unit. I have a Bosch GOF 1300 ACE but open to suggestion's

Great article answered my question above thank you

Can some one enlighten me on the correct position of the fence in relation to the blade, most images show the fence going at least to the back of the blade in not further, and yet surely it does no good past the end of the cut?

Only had a quick look but has some sort of adjustable arm / clamps so should be fairly generic, yes its heavy to the fence is cast, so has potential.

It is a solid barrier between and fast sharp spinney thing, and soft pink digits, yes very important. Unless in the USA where they seem not to use them much, It may be a little awkward at times, but so is loosing some fingers. Think hard before you remove and maybe look for alternative guards or...

I have been given one of these at a snip, however as it is a tad vintage I can find no information on the interweb regarding this table. Any one either got or had one? anyone have a manual, and is it worth tinkering with for the home work shop.

In the end I opted for traditional brick and block, after lots of quotes and estimates it was apparent that for my build sips worked out very expensive. Then add cladding wrap etc it became a lot more expensive than the more traditional route. I used super span trusses for the roof finished with...
