Hi I need to lift the main body of this onto the stand. Anyone got one and can offer advice on the best way to do it? By hand? Engine type hoist (would need to hire one) If lifting by hand, I know not to lift it from the ends of the beds but is it OK to lift it by getting hold of the beds next...

It would worry me that without a power cable it could not be seen working. It also doesn't look new to me. But good luck someone may get a real bargin if prepared to take the risk Mark

HC Sorry not got any, didn't occur to me to take any when I was there and didn't have a camera Just after a ball park figure

A friend has a Myford Super 7 engineering lathe to sell due to bereavement. I know nothing on this subject, but can tell it is in excellent condition, comes with stand and numerous other accessories. Can anyone advise on what the main lathe is worth and where it might be sold other than ebay...

I have no intention of buying any myself so not concerned to be "too late" Was just wondering what people thought of them, are they really any different, and does 10 years warrant a limited edition. Being originally a Sheffield lad I am glad they are still holding their own in the current...

Anyone planning on getting any of these? Not sure how different they are to the standard planes, but seems half have already been bought by collectors. I thought Clifton had been around longer than that http://workshopheaven.com/cgi-bin/cp-ap ... &ref=Anniv Mark

Hi I asked the same Q at the start of the week, though got few replies. It would seem Caber brand MR MDF is also good for this purpose and I think is slightly cheeper. Mark

Has anyone had trouble contacting Camvac? I sent an email to them 3 weeks ago about the suitabliity of a twin motor machine for my proposed set up and heard nothing. Are they always this bad, it doesn't instill confidence.

I think bugbear has beat me to the dimensions/drawing. If you still need my help let me know Mark

Hi I've got a few T5's, which I think have the original side handles, laying around. I'll check tonight and post pics/dimensions then Mark

I need some for some cupboards I am building, to be painted white, shaker style door and face frames. I was under the impression Medite was best for nice crisp none fluffy edges etc However everyone near me only has Caber. One guy on the phone told me it has improved and is now as good. Is...

Got the ones you sent me, just wanted to say thanks again Mark

Guys Thanks for all the replies. I've now done this using Steve M's method of drilling a hole and widening it with a rebate cutter, got a nice snug and tidy fit. I'm sure the mine circle cutting jig suggested by many would have worked just as well, but this ultimately was quicker as I didn't...

Thanks so far I didn't think I'd get a holesaw that diameter. I don't really want to spend anything if I can as I only need 2 holes, so this will be my last resort option Ron Foxs jig looks interesting, but fiddly to make and use I bet. It also looks like you really need to use perspex for...

OK, what I want to do is cut a 41mm diameter hole in some 18mm ply. I have some plastic pipe that is 41mm outside diameter that I want to let into the hole with a nice snug fit. So how? I'm not aware of 41mm spade or forstner bits anywhere, plus I'd like not to have to buy something like one...

Anyone got a photo of this great router table they can post up for those of us not lucky enough to have seen it in the flesh Cheers Mark

If you put a "cross bar" on the two posts, that will resist the forces that will want to pull them together. Then you can nail barbed wire/gripper rod to the top of that to deter anyone climbing over. Legally think you will then need a warning sign but thats up to you Mark

Rob Is there any reason the camvac couldn't be hooked up to a cyclone to increase its capacity (thinking of getting one myself and thats one of my concerns) Mark
