Is there any benefit or disadvantage to fitting celotex or similar between the 1st floor joists in an older house? 1870 my house is. Can’t do much good for airflow.....or does it not make a difference? This can be improved in other ways of course No doubt it would keep downstairs warm, but then...

Oh goody! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

I’ve just today taken the plunge in an eBay jobbie today

They are all fantastic! What’s the red box thing? Was that entire piece 3D printed? Exactly what I want a 3D printer for - life’s little hacks. I’m pretty comfortable with google sketch up. How easy is fusion to learn? Is much the same thing if your used to working and editing polygons etc? Louis

I don’t do this sort of thing often. So can anyone advise me if the best way to restore the top on this dresser. Orbital? Cabinet scraper? Is there a product I should apply? What finish suits this type of furniture? Teak oil or some sort of varnish? Not too fussed if the top is a slightly...

Mine was much worse than that before I decided to fix it!

I had to stop and think about that :LOL: what the hell are you on about did you just make that up? :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Yes it is - however. I need to be able to roll it directly forwards and then backwards around 1.5m! Not sideways!

Can anyone recommend a solid mobile base for a hammer spindle moulder? Wondering if it’s best to simply get one fabricated? Anyone used any? Louis

Very nice. Love a bit of window repairs

I have this exact Morticer and as Deema says - loosen the big nut. Deema! Regarding the oil - is there an oil can attachment that fits to the grease nipples? Can you forward a link to one? Ive been greasing mine for years and always thought is was a bit crap. Makes sense if its oil Louis

Nothing was mentioned regarding tapes when I did my Accoya certification. I think any tape would be fine. But I wouldn’t use tape. Use Low mod glazing silicone if timber beading. Or a combo of butyl, low mod & traditional putty if being old school. Louis

I would seriously advise against tenonning on the very same spindle moulder you intend to rebate and mould with....You could end up wasting an awful lot of time and money. If you can’t afford a small tenoner then I would personally make a jig which did all tennoning on the wobble saw, then...

I see weights in your drawings... but have you considered...... spring balances?? (I’m enjoying watching your journey into the world of window making btw)

You can also set start and end dates and how much oi want to spend each day, as low as 50p

But at the same time I lack the concentration and interest to build up my Instagram You can target ages, hobbies, professions etc Not sure about actual incomes. You can also pin point (like, to the street) where you want to target and advertise, and then set a radius from that point up to “X”km...

I’m currently solely advertising via Facebook and Instagram. Get more from FB than insta. FB seems more of an older crowd which suits my business (and so do their wallets). But it is changing! The oldies are now finding their way through Instagram. The paid advertising campaigns are just too...

You want the tc moulder for the 1080 windows system from whitehill

I make loads of sash windows. The best tooling you can get is a Roman ovolo moulder head block and a 125 x 50mm rebate block sat underneath which creates a 9mm rebate. if you make as many as I do then the only way is to have two spindle Moulders. If your just making a batch as a one off I’d...

I gave up on doing those mdf site templates! Impossible! I now just take a number of measurements and CAD it. In sketch up, import a full frontal photo of the job, and literally just put it behind the cad drawing as a rough confirmation. Allow anything up to 15mm gap to allow for pointing in...
