    Warming up a stain

    Hi Steve Annoyingly, there doesn't seem to be a standard meaning for 'spirit stain', I have been told that some of the confusion occurs because the phrase means something different on the other side of the pond, but I could be wrong about that. The answer is that, as far as I know, Colron and...

    Assistance from US members needed please

    Hi All I know this is going to sound strange but I want to buy a tee-shirt. I've seen the exact one I want on the web... but it's in America and the supplier won't send overseas. Would any stateside member of the forum like to help out by ordering it for me and sending it over? I'll obviously...

    Yandles

    Hi All Glad to see on other threads that everyone had such a good time at Philly's.. I'm wondering though if anyone bothered going to Yandles and what people thought of it. It's the first one I haven't been to in a long time and I'm wondering how it went. Thanks

    24hrs and not a word?

    To be fair, it must be hard for any company to 'guarantee' its prices for a year when they are dealing with so many different suppliers. Suppliers will change their prices at different times in the year, so the prices in the catalogue can go out of date very quickly. The change to a 'more than...

    Thanks Chas, that was a brilliant bit of detective work! It worked a treat, thanks again. It was one of those annoying things that don't affect anything but niggle! All the best Terry

    Log in Email Association

    Thanks Chas... couldn't see anything there but haven't had a proper chance to study it... Hi Roger The problem (as such) is with the log on screen for xp. For example, if you log off (via 'start') a screen then comes up asking you which user you want to log in as, usually used when more than...

    Log in Email Association

    Hi All I know that topic heading doesn't seem to make sense, but I'll try to explain. I don't normally bother with the XP log on page but I've been playing with things a little bit and have noticed something strange. The computer recognises me as a user of course, and under my log in name...

    Yandles

    Hi All As ever, you're more than welcome to congregate at our stand at noon on both days (although I reckon turnout on the Saturday could be low!). I won't be there, I've got the weekend off, but our Sales Manager Mark Raby will be there representing us. Mark has a different demonstration style...

    Advice on self-employment

    Hi Chris One of the important factors here will be where you do the work and whose equipment you use. If you do it in an office at your friend's place of work using his equipment, HMRC will deem you to be an employee. (See here) This could possibly be an easier way to go. The only way to avoid...

    Requesting IT help

    Aw John, don't be such a pessimist. Last time I saw you you were lugging lumps of wood round like a teenager! (and no, that doesn't mean getting ready to lob them through car windows!)

    Requesting IT help

    If you look carefully at the bbc article, it doesn't say that access can be found to passwords or a way into someone's internet banking, just 'internet banking data' - I wonder what that really means? Another quote is about accessing documents on a hard drive, not about accessing bank websites...

    Sanding sealer - advice

    Hi Barry The transportation part of the process is rarely kind to these brushes, they often arrive looking a little the worse for wear. However, don't let appearances put you off! The brush will still work perfectly, indeed during use it will pretty much go back to its original shape. We are...

    Darkening oak

    Just to clarify that last point, as far as I know usually only methanol/ethanol based stains are fade resistant, not the white spirit based ones - which I know aren't really be spoken about here but just in case... Our Spirit Stain range is manufactured using fade resistant dyestuffs and...

    Sanding sealer - advice

    Sorry, I meant to answer this earlier... If you're after a 5 ltr of the Sanding Sealer your best bet is Axminster, they're about the only ones who stock this product in this size; hopefully most of our other stockists can order it in for you if you'd prefer.

    Sanding sealer - advice

    Hi All A list of local (or perhaps just convenient if you're passing that way!) stockists can be found on our website. Several offer a mail order service if there isn't one nearby. Alternatively, either ask your local supplier to get in touch with us or pm me with their details and we'll...

    Silly question about Yandles.

    I have to agree that sometimes it can be easier to look on a website to get the information rather than make a phone call. After all, in many cases, that's what the website is there for! Although our website has been criticised in the past I like to think that most 'straightforward' questions...

    Good Woodworking Free Gift

    Generally speaking, the magazine doesn't pay for the freebies that are included; as far as I know, they are supplied by manufacturers and distributed as another form of advertising. The magazine benefits from an assumed increase in value of that issue, some readers like getting something for...

    White Wood (the quest continues...)

    Hi Gill That's good; I was worried you'd paid over the odds for the 250ml size. Rustins (among others) produce a bleach, you might be able to pick some up at a local DIY/Hardware shop. Some mail order companies might be reluctant to send bleach by post. Good luck
