yes, i could fabricate something that would work but i would rather have a professionally engineered part rather than sometime i have put together, to pay for one off castings & parts machining for the tilt mech etc would cost way more than a complete used machine so I'm still debating wether i...

good call, i didn't think off that, I'm ordering a saw from S&S so will ask them first.

Chaps, having picked up the little Dodd planer restoration project for at home, i have also decided to look for a bigger (not big) planer for at work, have found a Junior Whitehead machine that would be another restoration job. BUT, its currently missing its blade guard & its cast fence. the...

this goes against everything i would normally recommend, but i use loads of ikea boxes, both for parts & various tools storage, they are dirt cheap & IMO lids are a big advantage as having original had boxes with no lids, there is nothing worse than dust accumulating in boxes.

osmo, blended oil/wax finish... quick to do, feels very natural when fully dry, brings out the grain.

thanks ordered it.

no problem i appreciate you looking, as it happens i just found 4 sets of blades just like yours in the old tool box that was in my workshop when i moved in, had no idea we had them, im going to see if i can get them to fit. might give you a shout for more if i balls it up. By the way, you...

bookmatched some long bits of cherry & cross laminated it into a 2 ply cherry sheet, will be going in to a 22" bass drum mould tomorrow whilst i press another layer.

Nice would love to paint my home shop floor but being in the cellar i expect it would last as well as the walls & be bubbling & peeling in 3 months. those are awesome, i want a toffee apple now.

looks like birch to me, not much protection of anything going on in those vids... not even ears.

that sounds like a decent deal.

no idea what others will say about if its suitable but i love the idea of the fence posts, kind of like a fence post log cabin :P you would need a lot of em though.

thats just way to much bloody brilliant to put into words..... have loved reading & following this, well done!

i find i have to do a yearly clean out of mine. not a big job, i have had a couple of switch mech issues in mine too as they get full of debris from being upside down as well, so every so often i cant turn mine on, so i have to clean that out. forces my hand to give the whole machine a...

ohhh, very close, a bit narrower but they look close enough no rebate edge though. i have saved that link. thanks. :) im not having trouble sourcing blades, if i need them cutting solutions can sort me some that are pretty much exact in just over a weeks lead time, which is brilliant.

the Bosch is an excellent machine, i have one in my home workshop, it was dead on straight out of the box, its been one of the best buys i have made.

yes, they are a fraction over 150mm long, 18mm wide (though im guessing they were 20mm to start with one is very ground and the cutting edge bowed) & 3mm thick. if you have any, do let me know i will gladly pay you for them.

yup, its capable of doing rebates, im just waiting to hear back from cutting solutions on if they can supply a set of matching new blades. im very chuffed with it, and its not looking like iuts going to be a hard to get it back up and running. just had a quick look at your website, that's some...

i have 3 Tritons now, 99% of my router work is done with Tables & i find them fantastic, im gradually building up such a collection that i have a different router for each type of cut im doing :) will be building a new router table to house 4 of them next month.

my home shop is in my cellar has a similar problem, its not too bad compared to most cellars as its got ventilation front & back (does not small damp but rust develops on tools left) my solution has been damp busters, did a similar thing at my main workshop, ran out of space but there was an...
