    Best Nail Gun for framing , cladding and roof timbers

    The other option of course is to hire a gun. Around £60 a week for a Paslode etc. It’s an option if you don’t want to risk buying 2nd hand or having to buy new when you might not use it again after this project.

    Best Nail Gun for framing , cladding and roof timbers

    Depends on budget and whether needed for many other jobs. I don’t have experience of others but I bought A Paslode IM360Ci in brand new condition (it had supposedly been used handful of times) for same work as OP with aim of selling afterwards but it’s been a godsend so will prob keep! for the...

    Paslode 360ci no marking tip

    Does anyone know the actual correct “no mar(k)” tip for the Paslode 360ci framing nailer? I can find ones online for the 65 and for “modified 350” and cladding tips but not what’s actually right for the 360. I’ve got a load of cladding to do and obviously don’t want to mark the boards (or do...

    DBT85s Workshop - Moved in and now time to fit it out

    When I was putting my 18mm on the summerhouse (that I'm building) roof, the board carrier/lifting gadget I had was free....... He's my 17 yr old son - his workout for the day ;-)

    Fence covering

    It certainly could be worse but I can’t imagine they suddenly did this without you knowing in advance or do you and your neighbours not talk (especially over the original picket fence)? It sounds looks Ken you were surprised when the new fence appeared! Anyway, assuming you do get on, I can’t...

    Now happy with the Table saw.

    I can’t compare with others (eg Freud) as I haven5 used the others but I got a couple of Saxton blades (60 &100 tooth) when I bought my Evolution tablesaw and the blades have had no trouble ripping what I’ve thrown at them. Interestingly (and I know this probably isn’t best thing to do) the 100...

    Joist/Stud Spacing and metric/imperial lunacy.

    Hi - yes, I know how to do it but it's quite funny that it's never mentioned (or certainly not in any YouTube stuff I've seen about framing walls etc...

    Joist/Stud Spacing and metric/imperial lunacy.

    The interesting bit for me is that if you’re using 8x4 on say the outside of a stud/frame structure BUT also on the inside, then the measurements of 16 on centres only really works on one side doesn’t it due to having a corner take up ~3” (for 3x2 timber) on the inside. | | | Studs...

    Cordless tool options (manufacturer)

    Don’t know if same with other makes but with the Ryobi orbital sander you DO need a 5ah battery as 2ah doesn’t last long enough (5ah is about 45 mins)

    Cordless tool options (manufacturer)

    Although I agree with the “buy best you can afford” philosophy, I don’t think anyone has asked how much you’re going to use the tools and what for. If full time professional 12 hour day usage then the brand, quality,warranty might be quite different than if buying for occasional use. I’ve...

    Air nail guns

    I’ve got the Ryobi 16g one and it seems to work well although I haven’t used it tons. I have used 20, 38 and 50mm in it and seems fine without issue even in 10mm quadrant for example. First nail gun owned so nothing to compare with (other than by reviews) but already having Ryobi kit/batteries...

    Making good use of a tree stump.

    Superb - excellent piece of work. If you could carve the back of it too, just the bit above the fence, you could have some eyes prying into your neighbours garden just for fun 😂

    Homemade router table and fence help

    Hi Could you provide details (couple of pics perhaps) of how you’ve done this and what it looks like? I’m thinking of doin* the same after seeing comments on here and started a thread asking for details but haven’t had replies. I’d like to try the UJK fence on my Lumberjack. Thanks

    Fence mod for Lumberjack router table

    First time poster but thanks to everyone for some really useful info I've read in threads so far. I'm having some fun building a summerhouse from scratch and the windows have given me a good excuse (as does just about every DIY project) to buy some tools. One of these is a Lumberjack router...
