Sling all that crap in the skip, get a water level,a decent basic level and a roll of thin dacron line. Then, learn how to use and enjoy 100% accuracy every time over more or less any distance. Incidentally, you cannot download this skill, but it is cordless. (y)

Dirty bugger!;)

Wise words. 'Only remove the safety device, by taking it off'

Hi, I am trying to clean and refurb our brass stair rods. They have been in for about twenty years and still don't look too bad but I want them as new again. I have used some screwfix no nonsence paint and varnish remover as thats what I had, just in case they were varnished or laquered...

Those were the days(y)

I blasted the thing with a silicon spray then a tiny drop of chainsaw oil. I have never done that before, never had a problem with a bit from Trend before. I did remove the bearing that had failed on the first bit, but that failed as well, destroying a template in the process. Never again...

Well, I just finished the last of several jigs and went to use this bit in anger and the bearing has siezed up, even though I did oil it before hand. Thats me done with Trend!! :mad:(n)🤬

Thanks for the comments guys, I did get another trend, the same size but dearer and only one bearing this time. Lets see how that performs. I think these are made in China ??

Anyone had any problems with these collapsing, I just used a new 10mm template bit and the bloody bearing has disintegrated, trouble is I bought it three months ago, so can't send it back. I thought it may be my fault for not getting the grubscrew tight enough but from what I have read, it...

Well worth a watch, my old mate Lou, judge for yourself.

Thats what I thought when I read your post old son(n)

My son just bought one and I have to say I am amazed how much use the thing gets. I used it to blast the workshop out and the amount of fine dust and crap it dislodged was a real eyeopener. A very useful tool.

A cordless blower.

Picked my elu flip saw which was in rip mode to carry it a couple of feet. Grabbed it by the sides sort of hugging it, as you do.. my hand hit the green button and it started, as it was still plugged in!!!. How I wasn't eviscerated I will never know. I got not a scratch but was very badly shaken...
