Not sure as I bought my BS400 a couple of years ago and your BS300 is lower in price. I had £100 off and free delivery, but any discount is a plus to add to the 5 year guarantee. Malcolm

There are some silly people that may believe what you say and I know that you are joking, but they may not. Never give any information out and if it is a 'cold call' end the conversation before getting caught out.

You must be thinking about Record then. The larger Record Bandsaws are very reliable indeed and do come with a 5 year warranty, which shows the confidence the company has in it's machines. I believe the Axminster guarntee is not as long. I have the BS400 and once set up correctly with the...

Nice one. A good system and if I ever grt round to getting a Router table, this will be helpful. As it is, I have two routers and have never used either of them due to lack of knowledge. Could be very useful someday. Looks like you have a very tidy shop there! Malcolm

Eric makes a good point that I missed and that is the wider blades 3/4" and 1" are wider that the top wheel if the teeth are in the centre of the wheel. Dont try and centre the thickjer blades if you still intend to use them. Steve Maskery's DVD will show you another way, but for the smaller...

Hi Polly, forgive me if I'm wrong, but it seems that you are new to bandsaws and setting them up.? With a new bandsaw, the first thing to do is get a couple of smaller blades. The 1" blade will only be used when you are cutting large, heavy timber, but please say what are you intending to use...

kyuzumaki where in the UK are you located? Malcolm

Sorry to hear the news, but at least you are on the way to getting back to normal. Take it easy and look forward to hearing from you again soon Malcolm

The blade can move more easily if the tension is not correct. When changing the blades, hopefully you do check the tension as well as the blade position on the top wheel ........ all without any of the guides being in contact or near the blade. When I started using the bandsaw, it took me a...

It seems a very long time since these kind offers were made, but despite reminders and several PM's, I have not heard anything more. Has anyone received any oif these gifts, or communication about them? Malcolm

Hi Glynne, I'm not so hot on IT, but have a Windows 7 PC and an iPad4 and link my e-mails so that I can get them when on holiday and respond if I wish to. The guys at the Apple store helped me a lot when I started and since. As far as password protection, I use '1Password', which is all...

Has ANYONE heard more on this please. Hope nothing bad had happened to anyone, but it does seem a long time since any reply. .? Sent from abroad, on holiday.

Although I have not used it, Trend do have an Ace/7 filter that is P3 filtration, so it seems that a P3 is possible with the Airace if you pay more for the extra. Has anyone tried these P3 filters? Malcolm

Well done. That's a great job to be proud of. Malcolm

Paper masks are no good at all if you value your health. I have the Trend Air Ace mask https://www.toolbritannia.co.uk/routing ... GwodrFEOlw and it is very comfortable for long periods, all be it that it can occasionally condence the air and neeeds shaking out, but the filters ate superb and...

Have you spoken with the seller to find out if he is the user or just someone that is selling something he bought to sell? If he has used it and owned it for some time, then you may get a better feeling, but if it's just a 'sell on' bit of hardware, you may be buying something that you get stuck...

Thanks oakmitre, I have sent them an e-mail. Malcolm

Thanks for that, I have sent an e-mail today. Malcolm

Thanks Glynne, Good thought and I sent them an e-mail yesterday as am having no luck over here. Probably because it's a very limited market. Ian Black at Tuffsaw hasn't made them for years as he cannot get hold of that size coil, but he is looking around for it. Malcolm Don't forget the open...
