    What's an oak tree worth?

    It's from near you, it will have provenance of a sorts, I think you have to pay him 10% on top of what it would cost him to chop it up for firewood.

    Compressor

    I have 150psi compressor made by sybol ( model Er9/100 ) which I cant find online, I haven't used it much and not at all for at least five years. I left the bottom drain hole thing open so there should not have been any water laying around in the the tank, but that's how I left it. Its been...

    Rebuilding joists on Victorian suspended floor

    As usual, spot on. I would also hack that crazy paving up and dig down up to a foot if you can. I bet if you ran a water level or lazer datum from outside to the interior of that room and checked the levels they would be virtually the same. Do you know at what level any cavity starts? is it...

    Festool or Makita? Which router to go for?

    Yeah, I think your right, but the 1/4 " 621 has the column dust port and is such a lovely tool to handle, probably the best lager in the world if you could drink one. I bought mine new without really knowing much more than I do now but when assessing my tools after a very prolonged absence from...

    Festool or Makita? Which router to go for?

    I have a De Walt DW 621 and to be honest, every time I have investigated it, it has come up as the best router of all time??? I have to say the dust collection is amazing, its nice and light and if you can find one second hand, it can be an amazing buy. Others will be better able to advise but...

    Made a balls up

    Bummer! How about creating some sort of teardrop shape filled with coloured epoxy. No one will have a clue what they are supposed to be (even you :) ) and might even look deliberate (homer)

    Dom's workshop build

    Its a nice place to be Dom,new shop, stuff to plan, stuff to buy, its what men need and deserve to be doing. If it were me, I would hold fire on planning each work area too hard and fast and make as much of the shop as possible moveable on wheels so as to be able to adjust the geography of...

    table saw fence parallel?

    Seriously? 0.28mm. What difference is this making to the way the machine actually cuts Bob. That reads bloody nigh perfect to me and certainly good enough for anything made out of wood (by me,anyway). Is that type of fence supposed to be super accurate at every position after being moved? I...

    table saw fence parallel?

    Having just read this thread with interest (and sober for a change) I wonder that the actual accuracy of the fence is not mentioned. By that I mean, do you check that the fence will always maintain its squareness 'every time' it is moved and re clamped. I have only ever used an old but much...
