    I don't believe it!!!

    I was amused by a report that they sent a small team to the servers to do a 'manual reset' lol, in other words they switched everything off then back on again. It normally works for me!!

    Myford ML8 Spindle washer

    I have the same washers on my ML8. I have always thought, as you say, they help prevent anything seizing. The are pretty hard and fairly thick, so I don't think they would compress much so not affect accuracy?

    Grinder Chainsaw Disc attachment Safety alert

    yes, and they know it. They take advantage and sell dangerous stuff direct into the UK. It makes a complete mockery of our consumer protection laws and undercuts manufacturers in the UK who do certify products. There is no way to stop it..........but the flip side is that we do get a lot of...

    Good reason to leave your table saw guard on

    Is the blade the correct width for the riving knife? previous thread here. Could it be caused by stress in the wood causing twisting when it's cut? It's scary when it happens. In the early days of ripping wood, before I knew what anti-kickback pawls were for, I was ripping a bit of wood, there...

    Grinder Chainsaw Disc attachment Safety alert

    Yes, this is a HUGE failing of consumer protection in the UK. All the big on-line Sellers can sell anything and not be held accountable. It's all wrong. The law should be changed to make the seller responsible for whatever they sell. This would include all the far east scam CE certified...

    Grinder Chainsaw Disc attachment Safety alert

    The fact that they had to issue a safety warning is a indication that there are people who would buy these tools but have absolutely no idea how dangerous they are. Can you imagine how suddenly that thing could kick back. An angle grinder can be bad enough at times. You know just by looking at...

    mainland

    They are just exploiting people in remote areas. Mainland Britain doesn't stop at Edinburgh. It should be stopped.

    I don't believe it!!!

    Thanks :) , yes, I tried that, also checked all my marketplace preferences,and filters, then different browsers, then different operating system on different PC, then un-installing Chrome and re-installing. That was a pain, having to reset all preferences, then tried on my phone. Nothing worked...

    If it runs on Windows, they should be able to get in that way!!

    I don't believe it!!!

    Just shows how fickle these organisations can be, whether by accident or a deliberate act, but I'm happily searching marketplace again :)

    New member Introduction

    Welcome Simon. I retired a couple of years ago, but phased retirement. Initially working a three day week for a year, then full retirement. I was in an ultra stressful job, often working 7 days a week, really long hours. For about a year after retiring, It was like Christmas every day. I just...

    I don't believe it!!!

    Same problem as me. I tried everything to get it fixed. In the end I had to create a new account, which works fine for searching. You can easily swap between accounts.

    I don't believe it!!!

    I must have been pretty lucky. I have got some great stuff from Marketplace, I also use Gumtree. I just buy locally and only buy things I can inspect. I pay cash and collect. Money never leaves my hands until can take the item away. I don't think I have ever used eBay.
