Bob What size ducting are you using from the cyclone to the blower and for the runs from the cyclone to the machines? Mark

Have a look over on the Haven as well, 9 fingers has just built one using much cheaper filters (and sold one to me!) meaning if you can find an old fan you can build one for next to nothing. Mark

If this is true, maybe this will clarify the previous similar incidents http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... t-car.html

Just a thought I used to work at RAF Odiham. Like many bases this has an on site carpenters shop which proper big boys toys. If you plan to settle near a base you know, you need to make friends with these guys who will, I'm sure, do some of the prep you describe for a few beer tokens, and...

Woodwizard Probably didn't explain myself in the first post properly, I'm not trying to produce a solid looking box. The finished look will be horizontal slats with about 8 to 10 mm gap between, so no worries with expansion gaps. Mark

Thanks for the replies I want to put it through the planer so green is ruled out. As for the staining, I've had experience of that from the green oak in the garden when I left it stood on iron bandstands - oxalyic acid gets rid of the stains. My plan with this is to paint the metal frame...

Chems You have a point about the protection which I've not given any though to. The rest of the green oak is unprotected and has been allowed to turn silver. I think I might do the same with this, in which case there is probably no difference to which I use?? I am hoping the metal frame will...

I have been tasked to make a cover for the filter workings of the garden pond. There are a lot of (green) oak posts in the garden. The boss therefore wants the filter cover to be oak as well. What we have decided on is a metal skeleton frame, which is then clad with thin horizontal strips of...

Hi This is how I built my shed, hope it helps shed-build-wip-t37824.html Mark

Thanks for all the replies I'll be buying some Nippon stuff and squirting it up the hole then Mark

Thanks They looked like "normal" wasps rather than the wood wasp you link to. Anyone any idea what precautions I should take? Mark

Hi I have hardwood sashes fitted. On the lower edge of the upper sash there is a small hole at either end, about 1/4 inch diameter. Not sure what this is for, drain holes prehaps? Today I noticed in the space of an hour about 6 wasps enter one of the holes (might have been the same wasp 6...

Karl, Thank you for the offer, PM on its way Mark

Hi Anyone know where to buy a small piece of perspex, about 400 x 400 mm (about 16 inch square). Either clear or smoked. Needed for the door of a new yankeesq router table. Cheers Mark

Ian I would be interested in all the aspects of your build, including how you have built stuff, put it together, suppliers, tips and mistakes etc. Pretty much the same as any other detailed project on that forum page. I have nothing specific I want to know at this time, this type of thing is...

Ondablade As someone who always champions the Bill Pentz way, how about a WIP on your build. I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to see this as it can seem a bit daunting when you look at his site. Mark

Thanks guys, just needed to check Mark

Hi I have bought an NVR switch from Axi which is connected via push on terminals (supplied). Like these http://www.thesitebox.com/Category/5732 ... h-ons.aspx Probably a daft question but how do I join the wire onto the terminal, on the coloured end. Is it just case of sticking the...

Thanks, what does the polyester resin need cleaning off with? Sorry, never used it so no idea. There are a couple of marinas near me on the Thames I could try, assume they might use fibreglass. Mark

Rog Kind offer, thanks but I need metal, need to be able to join more metal to it. Dan I have seen those on ebay. They are a little bit small I think, but am awaiting a reply to see if they have any slightly bigger. It is the dimentions I am more interested in, about 12 inches diameter (or...
