    That drawer knob looks like it is at a potentially eye watering height

    Turning Boxes - getting a well fitting lid

    I learned the hard way to finish boxes in stages. The lid fit being the last after two weeks in the house. There is a permentent production line even if you only turn say half a dozen a year. Having said that they are far more desirable to a wider range of people, than bowls. My wife has banned...

    A cut string stair in oak, blow by blow.

    Enjoying the thread, but it makes me feel so inadequate. None of the woodwork is theoretically beyond me, but I would have made so many mistakes, I would have slit my throat by now!

    Hope none of you are affected

    There has been a road I use flooded in a dip, so massive inconvenience to users plus expense for the council for traffic diversions. When I passed by the week previously I could have removed four or five barrow loads of muck from the gulley and drains. If the council were proactive the road...

    Electric vehicles

    My BiL has a leccy jaguar, apparently they are very tax efficient if you own a business! He went to Cornwall (300miles), stopped to top up, “not a problem just 30 mins whilst having a cup of coffee.” Thing is, he had to wait a further 20 minutes in the queue for a charger. How many minutes...

    Electric vehicles

    There will not be enough capacity to generate all the electricity we need, in fact we will run out of capacity very soon, even without all this extra demand. A couple of national outages and we will suddenly have a new set of priorities!

    Cutting a nail in half

    I usually wait until I have a brand new blade in my saw before doing this. :roll:

    Professional advice needed please, respiration

    Actually that mask tyre man suggests is very cheap. I very much doubt you will find anything to match it’s performance at the price. FYI when I worked, one of my jobs was to specify respiratory protective equipment of highly dangerous dusts. Using that knowledge and even though I could have...

    Van Gogh It doesn’t rhyme with cough nor go A Dutch bloke told me his way and it sounds like me clearing my sinuses. He said even the Dutch argue. Apparently the great man was aware and that is why he signed Vincent.

    How can they sell it for that price

    From the information posted, maybe you could find a local kitchen fitter.

    Scones

    I have already realised quantities need modifications as you proceed, it’s not like a cutting list is it? I have to be careful mixing cement otherwise it ends up too sloppy.

    TV licence requirements

    Not disagreeing with that, but it is just you (and me). My 93 year old father in law loved the bowls and snooker, as he was close to being house bound for the final three years there was not much to enjoy.

    Scones

    I have not baked since I was 13 at school. I am now “slightly” older :lol: Her majesty is a great cook so I have no need. Not sure why, but I decided to have a go, I mean how hard can it be? Used the National trust recipe, the mix ended up a bit sloppy. But my philosophy is it’s not a fault...
