    rutlands router table on offer again £99.95

    mine arrived on friday, very happy with it & its all pretty much bang on, might need to slightly schim the fence at one end. only thing i don't like is the stand as the legs stick out at an angle so i have decided I'm going to build a cabinet with casters instead.

    shed insulation

    you should not need to attach the inuslation to the shiplap matey, you can cut the insulation sightly larger than the gap between the studs & push fit in so its wedged in place. i have never insulated a shed but am insulating my cellar ceiling, I'm just cutting the insulation 2-3cm wider than i...
