A big welcome back from me too Sliver/returning2 ! If you have any joiners or cabinet makers close by then they will normally have a load of their off cuts of all sorts. Ask nicely (which I'm sure you would :mrgreen: ) and they should let you have a rumage to your hearts content lass.

I have wanted to turn a heart inside out jobbie for ages and at last I have got around to trying it. I have to admit that it's slightly easier to do a 2 piece than an 8 piece :mrgreen: I'm not too pleased with the finish because when I was turning the inside I had some break away from the top...

Oil? Paraffin? That gives off a fair amount of water when burned.

I hope that those flap wheels work Rob as I have just ordered some :mrgreen: :mrgreen: I have a flap wheel that I have had forever and it's getting a bit worn down now, but it's different in that the flaps are also cut into separate fingers It makes it really good on curved surfaces. The...

I still have my CL1 and I upgraded that to a 3ø variable speed 1 1/2hp motor and as said it has transformed. I hace had it now for over 20 years and wouldn't dream of changing it. I can't remember the name of the 3ø inverter but it;s a goodie and worth every penny. The company had to get me an...

Stuff all that hard work. They should have a pool like ours in France. Not that big but ?? Mind you I have no idea just what filtration system they would have in a pool like that? Ours was activated glass and filtered down to about 4 microns 8) If I now had the chance to have a pool here in...

A fair while back I bought some of these mirrors from Axminster Power Tools. They no longer sell them. I have done a search and just can't find any? Has anyone any idea where I can get them from? They are for dressing table mirrors that I have done in the past, but it looks as if they may have...

From what we have seen, the Malmesbury fair i seems quite popular and there is a fair amount of 'bread' knocking around here too. But I suppose you don't get yer 'bread' by giving it away do you? I'll just go ahead with what I hope will work and try to let you all know what happens. We used to...

Right, I'm off to do our first craft fair in Malmesbury and the first one since we left to live in France in 2004. My question is how do you, the 'royal you' price the treasures up for sale? I am trying to price things at the moment and trying to second guess just what people will be willing...

Well, at least it shows that he has a sense of humus :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

That was a difficult lump to turn and I'll bet it concentrated your attention :shock: The result was worth the trouble though 'cause that's a cracker.

Pat test? Shouldn't that be a Wack test?

that's silly! Bic razors don't have a battery and if the plug was actually on the razor then how could you shave with it plugged into the wall? :? :?

Why was it racist? It wasn't racist when I was sent for a long wait when I was 16 and a Boy Entrant learning my trade as an aircraft eleky in the R.A.F. Nor was it racist for the other boys what ever their colour. But then again that was in 1960 and PC was someone you didn't want yer collar felt...

I' got en electric wire brush and it really takes the back out of de-risting. It goes round and round with a wizzie-wizzie- weeeer-weeeer sound. It's a grate bit-a-kit init 8) 8)
