It certainly works for me. I'll try and take a photo of the different finishes tonight. I give it three/four light coats applied with a foam brush. After the first coat leave it for 30-40 minutes and then de-nib. Prior to the final coat it needs a quick rub over with carat paper. I honestly...

I went on the same excellent course as Roger, but I'm going to disagree with him. I did a few samples of various finishes on a piece of Ash a couple of years ago and I'm glad that I didn't choose the Rustins Plastic Coating. Imho, it really does look like a little "plasticky" and, IIRC, went a...

If you're after Oak, Scawton is the place to buy from. The quality is excellent. Neil

I registered for our online service and it is excellent. I can now see all of the doctors and the slots that they have available, so I am able to make a booking at any time. 8) I'll get my coat. :lol:

I was told by someone, whilst I was down in Axminster, that he believed the Axcalibur WHITE cutters were made in the same factory as the Leigh cutters. I have used Leigh cutters and they are excellent. If the above is true, I would say that the Axi WHITE cutters would be a lot better than the...

Hi jools182, Welcome to the forum. What are the dimensions that you have in mind and what is the weight of the bike? Neil

Hi Nick, Steve Maskery, who posts on this forum, has an excellent DVD on how to set up a bandsaw. You can find it here. Neil

Scawton Saw mill do them at 50 and 80mm. Neil

Hi Kris, I would mount the television on the wall. It'll be much safer and, imho, would look much neater. Neil

Steve Maskery designed a wonderful jig for measuring when using a track saw. It must be available on one of his DVDs. Have a look here. Neil

Mock, if your router only takes 1/4 or 8mm I would strongly recommend that you go down the 8mm route as normally the cost is about the same and you get much more steel for your money with 8mm. Oh and +1 for Wealdens.

I'm impressed that you still have the energy to post on the forum. :lol: Thanks for sharing, it's really interesting. Neil

Hi Bern, Glad that you're all enjoying it. Thank you for taking the time to post the photos. Neil

Alan, congratulations to all of you, especially your son. Neil
