+ Makita I have a few of there cordless tools, in fact I recently found my late fathers (i think its 7v nicd) drill from 25 odd years ago, and charged the battery just for fun...still works like a dream couple of drills, impact, noisy saw, router. Interestingly the brushed drill has a LOT...

as an avid coffee drinker, this interests me :)

Sawdust, and chippings can usually just go in your recycling bin, just confirm on your councils website.

well it arrived and i soon found out 2 things, On the bostitch site it comes with a thousand brads.....empty box ggrrrrrrr and the airline i got from SGS just keeps popping off so i had to get some replacement fittings. cant believe you cant even get hold of brads locally, had to order from...

no frocks given.

I ended up with a bostitch that should arrive tomorrow, they seem to be trusted and i havent heard much of anything else except battery/electric :/

I prefer the convenience of SV, i dont have the check the oven or worry something gets overcooked. yesterday i vac sealed and threw in a 2kg silverside which went for 4 hours @ 54c, it could have been left in another hour or 2 without any real difference. The result was delicious and as my...

only only double the cost of say a bostitch 😂 i was trying to find middle ground which is unusual for me, like most of my tools, its for occasional use, but i dont like cheap and cheerful as ....well...cheap and cheerful

i hear good things about the makitas and dewalts although i dont have one..

oh that goes beyond my basic skills and probably needs coding....temp i can do and i have a heater that keeps the garage above 5c overnight, but dew point i dont have an option for....le sigh i dont have a condensation issue yet though...

What do you chaps use to battle winter condensation? My current arrangement is a humidity sensor connected to smartthings which auto triggers a dehumidifier above 65% and turns it off at 50% as a result...no rust This works, but am i overly complicating something ?

Thanks for the responses guys, i think ill just go with the bostitch, they seem to be well regarded and last.

I watch some chap Thomas Johnson do furniture restoration on the youtoob and he uses waxes, i dont really understand repairing dings with something soft, id imagine it would wear away with polishing etc.?

I always do 😁 I was just hoping I could avoid the variance I always get on the corners with the table saw, it worked out ok though. I do love how the squeeze out just pops of although I did pre seal all non glue areas with shellac. Got some walnut stain coming tomorrow just to darken the...

just use lamello clamex :)

I have a compressor, so it just makes more sense without the need to recharge batteries or use gas cartridges

All the same? I was looking at the bostich 18g brad nailer, but there seems to be tons around and many cheaper, any of the others worth considering? if so which do you recommend?
