thanks for your reply Tiddle. I don't know I thought they would be supported by the rail and remain flat across the length. they are only small drawers 250mm long and so far I haven't put any weight in them. When I measure from a flat surface up to the bottom of the drawer sides at both ends...

I ordered them form here Möbelbeschläge von Blum, Häfele, Hettich u. LignoWare | Lignoshop have ordered a few times in the past and they have always been reliable and delivery was speedy.

First of all apologies for such a late reply @AJB Temple Admittedly I didn't get the chance to start messing around with the drawers and and now on my christmas break. Thanks again for all the solid advice I will refer to this when i am back in my workshop next week. Very kind of you to offer...

thanks custard, Will tripple check my measurments and see if everything lines up as it should.

thank you Adrian, That is some really solid information and very kind of you. I am back in the workshop this afternoon so can run through this and try to find my errors. In my case these are the tandem slides though im not to sure what the difference is. movento has the extra adjustment on the...

Hi Custard. Thanks for your response, I mean that when the drawer is fully extended the front of the drawer is lower then the back. when viewed from the side the drawer does not appear level with the cabinet carcass. I'm sure both sides are the drawer are level.

Hi guys, Looking for some feedback here. I am building some small style mid century nightstands and would like to have the legs removable and easy to install. they are simple tapered angles legs that mount to the underside of a small oak mitrred cabinet (44cm wide x16cm high). I wanted them...

I am having some difficulty with these basically i have built the drawer boxes perfectly to size and cut the notches what i seem to be having is some difficulty with the hole at the back which receives the hook. I opted out of buying the drilling jig and used blums measurements to mark and...

thanks for the tip @MusicMan yes im curious to see how it performs I bought it after seeing all the glowing reviews on here. shame dedicated jointers (not a combo) seem to be hard to come by here in Europe as opposed to the states. The jointer on my EB 260 isn't perfect but will have to do the...

Thanks droogs, Thats really useful to know will keep that contact in my archive. I've decided to hold out on the the big jet 310 for the moment until we find ourselves on a ground floor. the big exspense of a new machine and hucking it up 3 flights of stairs made me pretty nervous when I...

Hi Mike, I know what you mean but after taking a couple of passes this become exaggerated and becomes noticeable. after taking the chain of yet again I've noticed its really difficult to make tiny incremental changes and get the chain back on easily without everything moving a little, so...

me again. I know this is turning into a bit of a saga but would grateful on some advice again. I'm pretty sure the bed is quite distorted so I have decided to go for the shim route. I found a good dead flat piece of melamin coated mdf and cut it to size leaving it a little longer then the...

sorry for the confusion here folks. @galleywood just pointed out to me that I was posting from two accounts. seems I was logged in to an old account(that I forgot I created) on my iPad without knowing it. I will deactivate the above account and continue using this one

haha a good idea, noise isn't really a concern. various machines are running there throughout the day without a sensitive neighbour close by. I know what you mean about waiting but I can't see us finding anything anytime soon and I'm due a new machine so wondering if this is possible with a few...

Thanks Mike, will give that a go. best wishes, Nick

Thanks all for your reply. yes the building is an old industrial factory converted in to artists studios and the floors our plenty solid. we already have a big jet sliding table saw up there but this was taken up in parts. @galleywood thanks for the tip on the piano movers, I wouldn't of...

I've had it in my mind that I would like to upgrade my planer/thicknersser setup for a while now. The jet Jpt combo series is one of I've had my eye on for a bit. Firstly the jet jpt260. In terms of planing capacity it offers exactly the same as my old electra Beckum hc260 although I imagine...

Please accept my apologies @MikeJhn I missed the notifications of your messages. thanks very much for doing some research on this and your assumptions were spot on with regards to the tensioner. I have reset the bed and think maybe I have the sweet spot in terms on chain tension and it seems to...

Hi Mike, it turns on its spindle I think. will have a look at this later many thanks Nick

thanks for these ideas guys. going to have a stab at this this afternoon so will let you know how I get on. Re- Idler gear. Im not sure what the original nut looked like as when I discovered it it was long gone. so I Have replaced It with a regular hex nut with a little nylon insert the thread...
