Genuine question, how far has it been possible to do so, so far? Are most [complex] products not global now and would almost certainly have Chinese components in them?

yes, +1 for this.

home of wood, maybe. or snainton

I think that that is the correct holder for carbide tips I think you also need the diamond belt. at some point Garno you may want to explore the carbide tools, but for now stick with traditional.

That is ridiculous. Doing a PhD and they didn't even teach them how to solder? Next you will say that they don't know how to change the oil in their car either. Crazy times that we live in.

I went with the CMT. The advantage of a saw blade is potential use on a finger/box joint jig later. alternatively you could use veneer as the splines and cut with a handsaw (gents saw or dovetail saw). veneer splines mitre box for some pictures (some of the pictures are not relevant). Match...

Is there a day where Rutland's don't have a sale? Were the items ever for sale and in stock at the full price? I assume that the items have a 5* review.

lets not get the good doctor started on analogies...

I was just about to say that it might simply be a local photographer and so have very limited chance of cropping up somewhere online.

is there such a problem as fake branded bearings?

is it just me not seeing an image or pdf doc? (safari browser)

if you cut 2 pieces and are slightly off (you need to be pretty accurate), butt the two together and run the saw cut so that it cuts down the join. should then be perfect.

in summary, amazon deal posted up. seemed cheap, several people bought. stock now sold out and deal unavailable. a dozen or so people probably bought based on the initial heads up on here. I used mine today actually.

you missed your opportunity to wrap it up and give it to a parent for Christmas. if you dont want it, put a silly high price on it, bung it on ebay as a one off, direct from the artist and give it a few months. you might get lucky.

Wahy? Wafrey?

Yeahbut... A new creusen grinder and 2 new 447 jigs would be almost the price of the Sorby. You are also an experienced turner and know what you are doing. I agree that for you, the additional benefit is marginal and not worth it for the cost. To a beginner or somebody with nothing more than...
