I am not sure the landlord would be too pleased about that

I am in need of building a veneer press and want to use a piece of carpet underlay to go in the sandwich. Any chance anyone has a piece of about 300x200 they could post?

This looks perfect but they don't seem to list the width. Do you remember how wide they are?

I am currently going through making the boxes on Andrew's Crawford book "Book of Boxes: Design and Construction: The Complete Practical Guide to Design and Construction". However the 4th box on the book uses a Piano hinge on 6mm box walls but I can't find anything that small anywhere. Does...

I made a small box as I really wanted to have a go at the first attempt of cutting dovetails. Was a good learning experience with plenty of mistakes made through the process. The original plan was to leave the back higher so I could attach the lid but forgot to include the overlap of the...

I was trying to keep the piece smaller than the laptop but that is a great suggestion. It's a joint I have never done before but shouldn't be too hard to achieve on the router table. I will tinker with the design tonight as I probably want to angle the overhang so it does not look boxy

The plan was to not have the side walls at 90 degrees but to have them end grain to end grain. My guess is that you still think that is a bad idea given that you immediately assume they had to be at 90 degrees from each other?

Hi all, I have bound WFH for a few months and have decided my next project is going to be a Laptop stand. It all started very simply, 2 parallel sides dovetailed with to an angled top. I did a prototype in plywood to decide on the height and found it to be too boxy. So I have gone to sketch up...

Legs are maple and I know the inclusion of sapwood isn't for everyone but I like the contrast. You are lucky I couldn't include a big knot :D

A small pedestal table with the only purpose of raising a 10L water bidon so we can it's tap without it needing to be on an edge. Took the chance to get some training on mortise and tenon joints, I believe it's the 3rd time I am using them and still having trouble getting it to fit just...

I have a Lie Nielson 5 1/2 and use it for pretty much everything as it can easily be set up for smoothing and as a jack. I do have a cheap 4 1/2 but I tend to use that for rough stock flattening on a pinch as it I have a bigger opening on the mouth on that one. If I were going to buy again I...

Thank you for the heads up. I have sent him a message

I am in the same boat as you. The reviews on their website seem a bit mixed which I am assuming is due to poor manufacturer quality control so you may get a bad egg. So would love to hear people's opinions or anything that anyone has to share. Especially compared to similarly priced bandsaws...

Do you get any snipe on the makita? I have been checking the price of knives on the metabo is twice of those on the Dewalt and the makita so it seems it will be between those 2. I think to buy an extractor of chips make sense as at some point I also want to add a bandsaw, just need to find a...

Interesting, from the experience I had running the planner/thicknesser I didn't find it particularly noisy so need to take that into consideration as I line in a terraced house with a built-in garage. Isn't a cyclone designed for separating chips and dust so it should be enough? Or are you...

I already have a router table and a track saw does it really get any worst than that? The chips are indeed a problem and I am wondering whether I can just add a cyclone to the shop vac or whether I need a proper low pressure high volume extractor. Does the Dewalt has a locking mechanism? I can...

I did nothing within 100Km which seems to be the maximum distance Facebook allows you to use. A second DeWalt would be great but I have been looking on eBay for over a year and almost no one is willing to post and the ones that did ended up quite high. Unfortunately, Cambridge, perhaps as...

I can't find anything when I search for dewalt thicknesser. What are your search terms? Also most of them are probably collection only and that would count towards non essential travel Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Hello everyone, I am an hobbyist woodwork that mainly uses handtools. Lately, I have been using a local furniture maker workshop whenever I need to dimension rough stock but with the current COVID-19 situation it may be a while before I am able to visit again. Which got me thinking the best...

I'll take it PM incoming
