IIRC we had a beech one a few years ago. No obvious finish on it and it did get some black marks, but if you've the patience, a scrub with the nail brush would probably minimise it. Failing that, maybe a dark, oily timber like lignum vitae? Old bowling ball re purpose?

If you turn, could you produce a wooden one satisfactorily?

Everything works better when you don't pay your frigging tax share. Sorry, 2021 starting badly already😡

Marcros Head bowed, I stand corrected 😔. But I still get to eat it tonight 😉

My daughter thinks I'm an addict, so got me this for Christmas, the cheeky mare!

Our oak worktop is finished with Danish oil - brilliant and a doddle to do. If you're not sure on pine, test it on a scrap, doing full set of coats as per instructions. Maybe contact Rustins or Liberon Liberators buying to check it works on pine. Do be aware, though, that pine is pretty soft to...

I agree. Yes, as said above, it's a heart break to see loss of engineering, woodwork, etc in schools, but just my own kids as an example, (not bigging them up, just I know them best). They are INFINITELY more socially, environmentally, race, creed, colour, gender.... aware and tolerant than...

Happy New Year, one and all. Let's keep making things and sharing our experiences on here - it's gotta be better than giving up 😁

And for stirring tea, or at a push, spooning noodles out of the pot when someone has nicked your spoon. DAMHIK

Can I ask, as I can't see clearly on the picture; Are the auger bits standard drill chuck or SDS fitting?

I was just being silly, Artie. I too totally appreciate his and everyone posting their knowledge here. I'm probably being fuddled by 2020's multiple kicks to the head! Here's hoping for 2021

Which you then wasted explaining your workings to a load of old sods on a workshop forum 😂

Walcote, Please don't apologise for the 'mess' - that is operating theatre clean and tidy !!

I agree with general view - if you don't want to keep it, fling a rude price on it, stick it on an auction site, or try a WAG-friendly gallery in somewhere like Knutsford. Never know, you might pick up some other commissions, or even a WAG of your own 😉

I THINK RichardG mistyped and meant RDG Tools

Nice stool and nice quilt stand 👍

Love your photos. I assume the sun one is time lapse with a satellite passing it. How long between images?

I love seeing roughtie toughtie men sharing their pet photos ! We're all soft as s*** really! We're getting a little tabby tiger in a month, as all the g-pigs have died now. Loved the pigs, esp the old boy that was like a little lapdog right until he died at 7 and a half.

Im no meta... but trust the likes of Richard Findley, who told me he is very pleased with edge holding on his. If you call Crown, talk to Edward and he'll explain pros and cons of each steel. And also guarantee satisfaction. My piggy bank is now in overdrive!

Nice christmas present! 👌
