I dunno if they are in UK, but one of the largest N.Am distributors is CRL... they have a great website, but here's likely the page that will help. https://www.crlaurence.com/crlapps/showline/default.aspx?GroupID=6712&History=39326:1:39325:4940&pom=0 Check out the air and dust seal, It looks...

Ja like that, but .03mm equates to .0018", and I'm hoping to find someone whom has measured the "flat sole" down to .0001", an order of magnitude finer. Please don't tell me it makes no difference, I know it doesn't-unless you got a "plane 0 shame", but what I want to investigate is a...

I'm well aware of the"flat sole society" and can see the benifets. Don't want to argue the point at all, just want to know if anyone knows any proponent of "sole flatness" has actually measured the flatness proported to any degree (.0001 or finer) or just been satisfied with putting a...

Ya , and I once got a warning for discarding glue syringes in the trash, as it seems the city thought I was discarding"medical waste"!!!

This appears to be quite similar to that used on older office furniture that I once had to match pieces of. Fooled around with store-bought stains without success, but I knew I had seen that colour before, and it came to me... a Tar stain on some light pants, that we tried to remove with...

I'm like John....find the tormek(oid) just a lot slower than the bench grinder., which I have no problem using to Eric

file drawer!

eventually got tired of the mismatched clamps, and gradually switched it Bessey and quick-grip Irwins. Came up with this... I must be an old-fart, as I hate using the K-clamps

I just hate the adjustment of them. Must be od school!

what about adowel plate.....take a 3" piece of walnut and drive it through a piec of 1/4" iron with a 1/4 or whatever hole in it.....

jewelers supply stores have them, , but-often in a wooden hub intended for a tapered shaft, but they often sell adapters as well. But like any wire wheeel, you've got to pay attention to max rpm! I dunno if a router speed control would work on a regular bench grinder. Eric

ain't nothing said about how you have to fix everything at one go to join the flat sole society. As far as I know, the Tool God will on;ly shine on those worthy......s tell them that the tool could be refined, and maybe that sends them down the path or rhikenology!, and suddeny yu become an...

My father went from kerosene lanterns (no'lectricity) to tryin to keep his mac updated!....but his wkend I'm gonna intoduce my grandkids to a dial phone whichshould be real fun!

one of the best dowelling jigs in my opinion, even if it's not current. with long extensions you can dowel across a carcase repeatedly with a greater deal of accuracy than any other doweling jig I've ever found!!!,

I totally love the idea of keeping tools running!
