i have new & old makita at my home & buysiness workshop... mostly drills, drivers, sanders & routers, i bought a snader 4 months back and its great everything i would have expected from makita... im just gutted this product is just not up to standard, i hope they are not slipping.

HI dJ, i have to admit the outer moulded housing is very toy like as its a cheap plastic frame... but i bought it as i needed a compact tablesaw that has some of the features of larger saws, i dont actuly cut much sheet materials in what i will be doing, i have only been doing that as im trying...

I bought one of these saws last year, 15months or so ago for the home workshop, it was my first small hobby saw, but from its spec looked stacked with the features im used to on my bigg saw at work & being a makita i figured it would be good for the home workshop. i was quite happy with it when...

i dont have the perticular model you mention but i can not reccoment Triton highly enough, they are amazing tools, i have a MOF001 which is a little over your budget...its my fave tool buy of all time... best router i own (i also have 2 far more expensive makita & festool models at work).

the other problem.

some pics of the casting break.

does anyone do this or are they just disposed of? i bought a Dewalt Dw700 mitre saw off ebay, unfortunatley parcelforce decided to throw it around & have broken it, part of the guide (the important bit that stope the cut going too deep & helps keep the spring in place.) has been smashed off &...

funnily enough thats one that i have kept looking at, never used any Metabo stuff though..

guys, Im currently renovating my little 1900's terrace, need to fit new skirting boards, wooden flooring & the odd replacement floor boards in all or most of the rooms... figured its a perfectly good excuse to get myself a Comp Mitre Saw... save me from trailing myself into the cellar constantly...

Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated, ordered one from Dennis Leverett (triton tools.uk.com) today, his packages do come with the 1/2" collet & the height winder tool.... fantastic chap, offering fast & knowledgeable customer service, that IMO is worth paying the extra couple of quid...

ahhh think i have found what i needed on this site, it was not working earlier http://www.tritontools.uk.com

been given conflicting info from amazon already. not bothered about buying from them would rather buy from somewhere that has a clue about what they are selling... hard to ring shops up at night & when at work during the day... was hoping to get something ordered tonight, as i said im in the...

HI Guys, this evening my router has died mid job, need to get a new one on a tight budget, had a look around & i like the look of the Triton models & the router will spend most of its time mounted in my table, can afford the 1400W which should be plenty powerful enough. Howler im confused i...

good lord that is a beautiful piece of kit, so well done!! i have a decent home made veneer cold press we made for making veneer ply laminations for my day job, its no where near as nice as yours & i never found a source for those press handles, we used thread bar with nuts welded to the top...

snap, i now have one... still settling in & loads to do renovating the house. I'm using basic dust control, on machines I'm attaching the workshop vac for extraction, which is removing the mass off it & just making sure i have a good clean up as i go... the cellar is all my space so i have no...

Slowly the cellar is turning into something more workshopeee, I'm trying to use up as much materials salvaged from the house above as possible, money is too tight to buy much for in here & it saves on the cost of skips. got a 2nd bench built out of scrap worktops and also got a rutlands router...

in may job workshop it get very cold (big tall old building, tiled floors) .. we are using PVA all year round, we combat that & the issue with PVA & cold but moving the glued up pieces into a small corner or room where we have a oil filled radiator on a low setting, this is left on all the...

just seen the offer, bloody hell it is a lot of cutter for the cash... think i will save up for the next time it comes round.

aye i had already decided to not pit the stick on ruler on straight away.... will levee them off as i don't need em. I'm currently deciding which router of mine to install, my heavy Ryobi is my currently my preferred router over my cheeper lighter one, if i do use that i will take your advice...

more work done this weekend. decided i want to put most of my machines on wheeled cabinets so i can rotate things round as i need to. to help me do this i realised I'm going to have to remove the old set pot/water heater that was build on the side of the chimney. so out came the hammer & i...
