Same here.

Those excellent photographs are quite revealing.Am I the only one to be seeing what looks like an inserted piece of steel to form a cutting edge?There is plenty of room for improvement on the chipbreaker front,as has been mentioned and it will lead to a better plane.What it won't do is solve the...

My sympathy for you injuries is accompanied by a wish for the sufferer to tell us more about what happened so that we might collectively suggest safer work practices for those who might be vulnerable.Everybody hates learning of such mishaps and we ought to have the collective knowledge to make...

Those plywood push sticks look entirely reasonable,do they differ greatly from the plastic version supplied?The next step should be to attach the guards to the saw as this will reduce the risks of injury further.Normally saws of this general type would be supplied with a general purpose...

I'm fairly sure you would be better off with a standard Stanley replacement.

I have the Jet Bos5 and on the handful of times each year that I need it,there is no substitute.It really depends on the type of work you do.

I had something similar a couple of weeks ago.I was sitting no more than 10 feet from my front door when an email arrived telling me that a delivery had been made.I found the package by the gate.The Evri delivery driver had to walk past the front door to reach the gate..... Had I not been in the...

If the OP hasn't used it previously,this might be a good use for the sagulator. The Sagulator – WoodBin

I second that opinion.Really interesting and i was staggered to learn of a literally astronomical distance measured to within the thickness of a human hair.

I have no doubt that it is possible to use the device without a riving knife,my interest is whether doing so in a workshop with employees is frowned upon by the HSE.In the dim and distant past I have seen them used on a radial arm saw,but I wouldn't expect to see it now.

Have you ever wondered how furniture is fitted to the non-rectilinear interior of a boat?

Just how thick would the riving knife need to be? A video of a legitimate setup would be revealing,if it can be created.

Look for core voids,and hope to find none.Traditionally,Finnish birch was the best and most expensive but the other Baltic states could produce decent ply and usually at a lower price.Repair patches are far from unknown and may influence your decision but look at both sides of the ply as one...

I know nothing about laser edge banders and not that much more about others.It might help to know how different the revised door size will be as removing an amount greater than a saw kerf could be done in two cuts,one to clean up the edging for re-use and one to take the door to it's new...

Iroko.

I make a point of not buying or wearing things that advertise the maker.If they really want me to wear those,it will cost them,not me,a big pile of money.

A small point that Jacob skipped over is that using wet and dry paper on glass leaves a tiny step for your honing guide to ride over-you might not even notice it's effect.

Is it possible that the colour of the car in the first post came about because somebody or other bet one of the ad men that he couldn't make a most unlikely colour fashionable?

I suspect they are hopeful of your quality at a mythical price point,maybe a budget has been allocated and you exceeded their guess or a buyer might be on a commission based on what discount he can achieve.That kind of stunt is all too common and your best course of action is to stick to your...

I had a cheapy for several years and not only did it run down the battery all too quickly,it reached the point where it became inconsistent-it went in the wheely bin once the battery had been removed.I had a lingering suspicion that the foam in the lid of the case might have been pressing on the...
