    Flooring options for existing workshop

    It does depend upon how uneven but I use a mix of chipboard sheet and another area of second hand bitumen backed floor tiles. All straight down on the concrete, no problem moving anything and acts as a damp barrier. Cheers, Andy

    Use no adhesive. Dowel the sections together. Make a suitable flat/decorative hub for the centre to receive and make captive the ends of all the sections.

    Looking for owner of Lurem JUNIOR saw or planer

    In an ever fruitless task to get my Lurem t30n spindle moulder back in action I'm wondering if anyone had the JUNIOR planer or the JUNIOR table saw. The quirky thing about this group of 3 machines is that the motor was interchangeable between them. My issue is that I think the original design...

    Wood fillers for oak office table top
