Thanks for the input Olly, but the underwhelming tide of opinions :wink: indicates that it isn't a popular machine. I had my heart set on the Makita before this came along, so I'm going to take your advice and save my pennies for the Makita at £329. Phil

Get well soon Tony, thanks for the warning. Perhaps this post should be a "sticky" Phil

Good morning all Does anyone have any thoughts or own this machine? It's on offer at the moment at APTC, I'm thinking of buying it. Views would be appreciated. http://www.axminster.co.uk/product-Perf ... -32570.htm Thanks Phil

Or you could have this one :) Phil

Mike could you be more specific or helpful please :wink: :lol:

1-yes 2-no 3-I set it as £3000 but could have gone up to 5 5-no 6-no 7-never claimed Forgot to say I'm covered by Liverpool Victoria, I think they are very competitive. Phil

Hi Richard from a relative newbie :D. I have been on holiday for the past two years in Toronto, the closest I got to you was Niagra on the Lake. Love the place, hoping to emigrate when I qualify as a psychiatric nurse next year. Phil

Alf, i bought one last year and I did a lot of research before hand. The only sure fire advice I would give you is buy it with a credit card. the consensus on the laptop forum i used was that any possible fallout would be dealt with by the CC company. Although a lot of the members bought Dell...

Thanks everyone, I've just sent off an order for a replacement comb from Axminster :D Phil

Morning Everyone. Over the weekend I was using my Screwfix dovetail jig and I accidentally cut one side of the finger guide with the router :oops: rendering one side of the machine useless. Does anybody know where I can buy a replacement finger guide? I phoned Screwfix and their advice was...

When you talk about the table, do you mean a shop bought one or a home made version? Thanks Phil

Welcome back, from a newbie :) Look forward to seeing pics of your workshop. Phil

Thanks Neil,, I thought this site didn't have a search facility because it didn't slap me in the face :oops: Just goes to show how lazy you get. Phil

Can anyone tell me what a Cyclone is please? It was referred to in my review of a dust extractor but the author has not expanded on his comment. Thanks Phil

Good point Adam, never thought of that :oops: I don't think I'll have that problem though as I intend to use it on my machinery, the Earlex will still act as the shopfloor vac. George, what do you mean by a cyclone? Phil

Good morning one and all. I ordered the above from Charnwoods as well as extra fittings on Tuesday afternoon about 4pm and it arrived yesterday about 11am. When I unpacked it the supplied hose was kinked but it was easily fixed. As mentioned on another thread it is flimsy and it would...

In that case Scrit, do you want to sell yours :lol: Phil

Thanks everyone for the common sense opinions, and reality check :wink: . I have a bandsaw and a router table so why spend a further £700. It would be nice to have another toy even though I haven't really got the room for it :) Phil

I have used a £30 Earlex for the past three years and it has been great for clearing the decks. However when it comes to attaching it to my power tools I haven't bothered so yesterday I decided to amend this health risk. I bought a wall mounted extractor from Charnwoods, this is the link...

Hi Les I did pack the piece out, I think the problem is you have to force the arm down as you cut and it doesn't feel right, maybe it is just me :oops: It's been mentioned lots of times but Norm has got a lot to answer for, when he uses his radial arm saw it looks so easy. On reflection maybe...
