Various sizes really but the pieces i have bought so far have been 1000mm in length by 100mm and either 9 or 12 mm thick. I want to get hold of some various sizes to select from and some 6mm thick for some small boxes. Really whatever scrap i can get i will take to be honest as i do scrolling so...

Thanks, I will avoid and just borrow my granddads dewalt for the time being (thank god for grandparents :P).

yeah understandable I saw a 3hp one in lidl a while back so may keep an eye out, not got the space for a compressor at the moment anyway. Cheers Mark

any thoughts on the MacAllister 18v cordless nailer?

Hi All, Fairly new to woodworking but I have bought a few bits of hardwood Oak and Mahogany (just thinking of something to do with them on the scroll saw and maybe a little box or two) I currently use T W Parker for my hardwood and they are pretty good there but I was wondering if anyone...

I have bought a few tools from Lidl and they do me well really I also bought a router table from Aldi a couple months back, has served me well when I have used it, but there are a couple of alignment issue with the extension tables. Still it was only £30 and done what I needed it to do, I will...

I cannot watch anything like that either, just makes me start talking to the TV in a disapproving way.

You can just also make each a group and it will have the same effect (components are more useful for repetitive pieces that may need a uniform change in my opinion, such as for a table leg). Just my two pence worth though. Cheers Mark

Nice, was it your own pattern?

not a problem mate, some of the ones i found have had good reviews on screwfix (like this http://www.screwfix.com/p/erbauer-ebs25 ... 230v/24053) could most likely find them cheaper else where as well.

Hmm yeah that ain't to bad really. I suppose I should just save the extra. I really have to build the space first and see how much space I have anyway. Cheers for the feedback all, has helped me a lot. Cheers Mark

Hi all, next year I will be re-building our shed and I plan to make it bigger to take it over as my workshop :) (as well as a small section still for storage or ill get shouted at by the misses). I would be looking to get a table saw in there and I was wondering what budget table saws people...
