    Track saws?

    ..got mine from Aldi for about £70?.....fine for what I have used it for so far, would be good to have another piece of track, but another piece of track costs virtually the same money I paid for the saw and the track!

    Aldi Bandsaw ( new model) coming soon. Buy it or choose other model

    ..my 100% recommendation would be to buy it! A few years ago I purchased the smaller one they had prior to this, (I think 8 inch). I fitted a Tuffsaws blade from the off, and it has punched well above its weight, and is probably one of my most used power tools! I was going to get the...

    Mitre saw size?

    A few years ago, after much research I got a Metabo KGS 254 M Sliding Mitre Saw, (currently on Amazon for around £350). I am a (very) casual user but I have found this fine for my needs. Only downside is it only bevels to one side, but I have not found that to be much of a problem...you pays...

    Which cordless system are you going with..if any?

    Hi all and thanks for all the replies. Probably not of interest to most on this forum, but I was looking at cordless polishers (ie for cars). Noted that the Aldi Ferrex one (£30) is almost identical to the Worx one (£60)?....just wondering if the batteries are interchangeable as well?

    Which cordless system are you going with..if any?

    Hi all, A few years ago I changed my cordless drill for a Worx + 2 batteries. Long story short, I now find myself with a Worx garden strimmer and hedge cutter as they use the same batteries. I also have a couple of other Worx corded tools that in general I have been happy with. (NB I am only...

    Band saw - Scheppach BASA3 vs Scheppach Basato 3V (vs Scheppach BASA 3.0)

    Record BS300....had to wait a few weeks for it due to supply issues caused by Brexit / Covid / Suez? But finally got one from Yandles. Although I note the prices have now gone up since I got mine...

    Band saw - Scheppach BASA3 vs Scheppach Basato 3V (vs Scheppach BASA 3.0)

    ..I wanted one of these, and Screwfix did them at a good price...came to order one and they had sold out and have been unable to find one since so I ended up with an alternative?

    Metabo BAS261 or Record Power 250?

    A mate of mine has the Record 250 and has been really pleased with it. When I was doing my research it was on my favourites list, but noted the comments regarding "always go bigger than you think you need", so I ended up with the Record BS300. But in reality I think the 250 would have been fine...

    Alternative to shiplap?

    ..been googling, and noted that feather-edge is considered a "lower grade" alternative to shiplap...just wondering why?..At least with shiplap you can have a decent (40mm) overlapso I would consider shrinkage to be less of an issue? (I am trying to convince myself that weather edge is the best...

    Alternative to shiplap?

    Hi all, and thanks for the replies Must admit, for my last couple of sheds I used shiplap, but over the years those panels in the direct sun have "peeled back" as there is only a few mm of overlap. At least with feather edge you can have a decent overlap. Also been watching some good youtube...
