I have a cheap scroll saw, but don't use it a lot, but I happened to see a Meddings advertised locally for a reasonable price. I didn't realise what a monster machine it was. I imagined from the ad. it was about half the size :LOL: Here's a picture of getting it out of the back of the car...

Very sad to hear about your dog. They really are one of the family. I think dogs are the most loyal companion you can have. That is a beautiful picture of your girls.

Welcome to the forum Tracy. I think most people on here have more tools than they know what to do with them. :)

at 70+ I still get up on the roof using a ladder or a ladder off my tower. I now always tie the ladder/tower to anchor loops I have dotted about the walls. I also use a body harness and have rope loops along the ladder. If moving from a ground ladder to roof ladder, I have a rope loop on the...

This??

Shallow cut using a finger joint cutter for router?

I would have all these flowers cut down........they just attract bees!!! :LOL: :LOL:

That's a big bit of wood!!

I got ridge hooks to convert one of my ladders to a roof ladder. It has wheels and works OK. The wheels are small, so can be difficult to get it over slates at times. The ladder should be long enough so you can climb on to it from the ladder on the ground. I wouldn't ever have a roof ladder...

Keep it. It might be useful for yourself some day 😁 😁

3 in 1 is great for delicate items like sewing machines. You know it won't turn to jelly. It may be over three times the cost of your typical motor oil, but it's only £3 for 200ml, so low outlay and lasts for ages...as long as the bottle doesn't fall over. I don't like the plastic bottle. I've...

Have you considered designing the bed so the sides can be removed as the toddler gets older and too old for a 'baby' bed. It's a full length single bed, so could last for years. For my grandson's bed, I just used this to stop him falling out of bed in the middle of the night. He won't need it...

I Love old cast iron machinery. I never bother doing a full refurb and paint job. I just use it as I get it, but that looks fantastic. You really have done a superb job on the saw. Can an old bit of cast iron look beautiful?? I think so. It must be a pleasure to use. :)

I met a lot of engineers that used the same training manual!! :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: ....its a joke. don't anyone take offence please😁

That is a brilliant bit of recycling. I use my compressor for blasting stuff all the time, but the airstream is full of oil and water, so no use for cleaning dust from my computer and other electronics. Those are the things which need cleaned most.

Welcome to the forum. Which Startrite saw are you rebuilding??

I do use recycled wood as much as possible. I really hate to see things wasted, especially old wood which tends to be better quality in many cases. I had a look in my area, but couldn't see any recycling centres like you have. Whenever I go to my local dump...they call it a recycling centre Ha...

but you can produce rubbish things a LOT quicker!!

I checked the part number. Seems to be available in a variety of output styles. One of which is a two wire with croc clips. Here, here and here are 'equivalent' devices. some may be far east clones without proper compliance.

If you think about it, all wood is recycled. It used to be a tree!!
