    I'm not bothered either. Just reporting the fact and that it is a fault. Doubt I would ever need that amount of tilt.

    Excalibur Scrollsaws

    A little bit of a Hickup I think? This is not a complaint, just something that needs correcting. I love the machine. Continuing with the investigation of the new toy, it seems that the tilting of the machine to 40 degrees canot be done both sides. Obviously someone has not checked this because...

    Dehumidifiers ?

    Thanks Guys, information sufficient now. I have just returned from B & Q with a 2.4L capacity Bliss WDH-1012EC for £98. Looks as if it will do the job and does have a continuous drainage connection if needed. I will see how quickly the tank fills up and then decide if I want to fit a pipe...

    Excalibur Scrollsaws

    What tool did you buy today?

    A Scrollsaw. The new Axminster Trade Ex16 that replicates the Excalibur with addition of an NVR switch for schools. I have done an initial review in the Scrollsaw section if anyone is interested. Very pleased with it. Malcolm

    Tune Up Update............... Spent this afternoon making sure that the blade was completly verticle from the side and the front. Part of this involved making sure that the arm was parallel with the table and a tweak of the large knob on the back of the arm soon did this. The adjustment of the...

    CORRECTION - the forward and back setting of the blade requires the motor to be turned. I have added this to the review. Sorry for the mistake in my rush. Malcolm

    They shouldent be too surprised Jamie, at shows across the country, Record have been offering reductions and free delivery on their equipment for some time now. You did well to get your reduction. Don't forget that you will need to 'tune' your bandsaw and keep it so. Have a look at these videos...
