Hi again, thanks folks for the directions and stuff. Just to confirm, the official show hours are 10-5 on Friday and 10-4 on Saturday, but I'd suggest if you're coming along on Saturday afternoon that you arrive at 2pm at the latest as things will be winding down a bit after 3! Come and see me...

Hi all, especially Chas I've been asked to give out the address for RS Paskin where we'll be attending a show on Friday and Saturday (10th and 11th) The address is: RS Paskin & Co Ltd Oldington Trading Estate Stourport Road Kidderminster DY11 7QP Tel: 01562 829722 I'll confirm the times...

Chas Rather than hijack this thread too much (and, being cheeky, to ensure maximum exposure) I shall start a new thread about the Paskins show.

Wow guys, you are really early with this one! In case there should be any confusion, this show is on 7th and 8th April. We'll be there of course and look forward to seeing the usual crowd. Between now and then though there are a couple of other shows worth mentioning; This weekend I'll be at...

Hi All I'm with Horst here, I'd be reluctant to use these products for holding food or drinks. Our Food Safe Finish is not designed to hold liquids in this way and I'm unable to suggest anything that is, especially bearing in mind that should anything like this leak and cause injury all hell...

Hi All thanks again for your kind words. We do have insurance and I put in a claim this morning although on past experience I wasn't looking forward to the inevitable wrangling... You can imagine my surprise to get an email about half an hour ago telling me that the claim would be settled and...

Hi All Thanks for your suggestions and support... of course, it now seems that every method of moving goods around is letting me down... A standard parcel arrived at one customer looking like it'd been used as a football... And a pallet of goods sent out (which is normally the safest way of...

Hi Steve I think it's likely that you might need to rub a bit more; using the Friction Polish off the lathe is hard work as you have to do the work rather than the machine! When I have to do this by hand (and it's not that often I'm pleased to say) I tend to work in small areas and keep...

Adam said You'd think so wouldn't you, but no, they can only 'leap into action' (massive irony) after 30 days from the last complaint...and so the cycle begins again.

I need to vent my spleen and this is my best chance... I use the PO Box service from the Royal Mail and they are supposed to deliver my post every day. When my normal postman is on the round there is no problem, but if he takes a holiday I don't get any post as no-one at the depot checks the...

Thank you one and all, your help, advice and information is very much appreciated. I know a lot more than I did when I started this post and realise that my best course of action, now that I have an idea of what I'm talking about, is to go to a specialist outlet and get some help choosing the...

Hi John I wonder if I can post this before someone else's fingers beat me to it! You can either turn off the automatic scan (assuming it is this you are referring to and not the auto update, but I'm sure you know the difference) or schedule it for a different, more convenient time during the...

Sorry Roger, you've got me a bit confused now! We do have a DVD player but we want to upgrade to a DVD recorder with HDD and get rid of the video eventually (and have less boxes and less wires etc). At the same time we were looking at new TV's and that is where we got confused (and mis-informed...

More useful information, thank you guys. I know I could look it up but sometimes wading through a million sites trying to get an answer to a simple question defeats me! So, one last question then (until I think of another one). The 'Home Cinema' box sounds interesting - as long as it doesn't...

Thank you gentlemen.. your comments confirm that the guy in the shop didn't know what he was talking about... but these days that doesn't really surprise me much! So, if I can ask another probably silly question - will the speakers plug into the tv or do I need to plug a special 'box' into the...

Hi All There's an interesting thread elsewhere about surround sound making it easier to hear speech; we're in the process of thinking about a new TV set (I'm not that fussed as there's so little worth watching, but that could be the subject of a whole different thread!) and I was bearing the...

The modem being referred to here, the one that can be disconnected, is the the old, generally internal one, in the computer. The broadband modem stays plugged into the phone socket/filter, and the modem is connected to the computer by, I think, an ethernet lead or a USB lead. The lead that used...

John, just an idea, but you might find it useful to save the installation files to a different drive/partition (or burn them to disc) rather than leave them on your desktop. The reason being that if you have to do a reinstall or lose your C drive for any reason you won't have to download them...

Hi Marky Bleaching is not one of my favourite things and I'm reluctant to offer advice on something I haven't done in many years! Also, I'm not overly familiar with the one part bleaches so you'll need to make your own choice there, which I think you pretty much have anyway. The only advice I...

...and I'd agree with that too! It is the finish that is 'vulnerable' here, so the same care and cleaning regime will be fine.
