Well guys after following this thread I have finally bought a Panasonic 255. I wish I had bought it when the thread started as they were £11 cheaper :( , hey ho. Could anyone kindly give me the ingredients I will need for a brown loaf, or any tips for making better bread please? TIA Phil

If you can stretch your budget and have the room, this one is pretty good. http://www.axminster.co.uk/product.asp?sessionID=BJF&pf_id=655467&name=axminster+ts+200+table+saw&user_search=1&sfile=1&jump=44 I've had one for about a year now, it's a solid machine, the only downside is the 200mm...

Mark I bought a guitar about two years ago thinking that I would learn to play, STUPID BOY! :D Anyway I sold the guitar this year, but I still have the Guitar for Dummies book if you want it, just cover the postage. Phil

Every third day Gidon :D

I've just got one for Xmas Smudger, i think it's good value for the money. I'm not a builder it's only for DIY, but at that price can you go wrong? Incidentally the electrician who works in the hospital I work in has just done a few jobs for me around the house and he uses it; he said that it...

I can't understand it, no one has mentioned "Le Salvager". :D

I've got a 2Kw oil fired radiator, set on 2 it heats up the workshop to about 40f. I also use a electric bathroom heater just to give it a boost in the morning. Insulation is the key Kev, I'm happy with mine but I did make the mistake of not insulating the roof joists. This picture was taken...

Hi Trousers bad news about your laptop. I watched a BBC programme called "Don't get mad get even"about six months ago, it said that because you have probably spent a lot of money for the item, it should be fit for purpose longer than a year. The item they were talking about was a 40" television...

Jesus guys, these are all scary stories :shock: . Makes me ever so grateful, no I'm not going to say it, I'm a superstitious person and hopefully you get my drift. Hope you get well soon Tom and the operation is a complete success.

Put me down for one as well please Tom.

I put all my stuff in storage when I moved to Jersey Steve, it cost about £100 a month. The storage space was for a two bedroom house. It was the Big Yellow storage company and I would recommend them. Everything was dry as the space was air conditioned and I had access 8 am till 6 pm Monday...

Phew, that's a relief guys, :D thanks a lot. I suppose it is my fault Mike, my wife wants the window open at night but I'm too much of a wimp to open it. :oops: I think I'll have to leave it open now. Cheers Phil

Bit late with this one Pike :oops: . Here is a pic of my old shed taken about 2007, the shed was built about 2004. As you can see I used Wickes shingle and as far as I know they have been fine. I spoke to the person who bought our home about six months ago; he said the shed was fine and...

I've recently moved into a new house and the majority of the windows have condensation on them in the morning, especially our bedroom. Am I correct in thinking that the glass units have failed? They were installed in 1995. Any advice would be appreciated before I contact the double glazing...

You're right jlawrence, it's not easy to tighten. Any other ideas on how to do it would be welcome.

Here is a quick update. The guide in place using bench dogs . Out of situ, spot the mistake :oops: With the clamp stop Cheers Phil PS if anyone wants a 10% off Screwfix code, please e-mail me.

Thanks for advice guys. I think I'm going to leave in on top as Tom is right, it's a real pain lifting it up and down, and after all the space is there. I'm going to make the guide removable so that the bench is usable. Cheers Phil

Finally got my new workshop, :D so I thought I'd post a few pics. It's a 14 x 10 shop bought jobbie from Flixton saw mills. As mentioned previously it is insulated with 50mm Kingspan insulation and is boarded out (to my shame) with 12 mm shuttering ply. When I bought it they never said that...

Welcome to the site Oliver. Pictures of your workshop are compulsory you know :D Phil
