I'm going to phone wealden on Monday Dan, get some more free advice and ask for discount if I buy the the most used ones. No harm in trying. :wink: And thanks again to the rest of you guys who offered advice. Phil

Ironballs, I was informed by the salesman that the dehumidifier will actually cost nothing to run as it is drying out the air, which then makes it easier for the oil fired central heating to heat up. He even went so far as to say there has been a paper written to support his theory. As to the...

I'm about to start growing my own veg as well Byron. It's the first time I've had a veg patch. It's only about 4x4 but I think we should get enough potatos for both of us. I'm waiting for the Jersey royal season, I think you plant out in January. If successful I might try growing onions and...

Byron, I feel so cynical about the "green strategy" What can an island the size of GB do to affect the outcome of the world's green house gases? I truly feel it is like a spit in the ocean. My wife keeps telling me that we have got to start some where, but when the likes of the USA. China and...

Hi Stig I don't want to diss you but take it from me, don't buy a cheap morticer. I bought the Axminster one and it has only been used once. I feel that the router option is the better choice. cheers Phil PS, Anybody want to buy a Axminster morticer? I t comes with four chisels free! PPS...

Dan, I respect your input into the whole forum, so I am surprised when you say that you cannot hold your counsel. Do you need this section to be closed, so that you can refrain from posting your opinions? I think not, for what it is worth. Cheers Phil

I voted no also. I did a quick count on the first ten pages of topics and there were four locked threads, hardly worth punishing the rest of the members for some people getting a bit hot headed. As mentioned previously, we would all lose a valuable asset if this section was closed. Cheers Phil

Thanks everyone, Wealdon it is.

After much deliberation and reading the posts about routers I've decided to upgrade my router to 1/2 inch and bought this http://www.axminster.co.uk/sessionID/BJF/product-DeWalt-DW625EK-Router-Package-Deal-783005.htm Can anyone recommend good router bits ? In the past I've always used cheapo...

I will repeat myself, it was the content that I was objecting to. It was immaterial that I did not hear it! Also it doesn't really matter what these people earn, if they are going to use their position to publicly denigrate innocent people then they must accept the consequences. The image...

I apologise for using the Holocaust as an example to highlight my point, this event should not be used to get my point across. However, I was so incensed that people cannot have an opinion just because they did not hear the broadcast. I personally do not listen to either of these presenters so...

Do you have to hear the broadcast to be offended by its content? What if it were your son or daughter they were publicly lambasting, would you like it? It's immaterial what Andrew Sachs Granddaughter does for a living, she does not deserve such shoddy treatment. I do not pay the very small...

Yes it looks just as good without them, I might leave them off.

Lovely job Tombo =D> . Are you going to put "Mind your head" notices on the bottom stringer? :D Phil

Thanks Wizer, I got my hardware from Hobbies after your suggestion The only problem about the wheels though, is the bowler hat has to be glued to the wheel :? My dimensions were not far off yours, Cheers Phil

Thanks Wizer.

Any chance of the dimensions Wizer? my walker looked small so I've taken it apart. It was 18" x 12" and the depth was 3". Thanks Phil

Hope you find someone, can't help you any further than that. Here in Jersey they don't even keep Cherry in stock, you have to order it from the main land. Mind you it is only an island 9 x 5 miles with a population of about 90000 :?

I've just made my version of this: http://www.woodworkersinstitute.com/page.asp?p=461 Here is a pic Not a great picture but it gives you an idea, it is 5ft x 2ft. The top is made out of two layers of 32mm MDF, with a 12 mm plywood top and the carcase is Pine. It also has a lower shelf of...

Are there no Windsor chair makers in Australia woodwould? After your experience, I would be reluctant to use anybody where I couldn't personally see their work.
