Hello folks, I have a query regarding my Scheppach ts 2500 Ci table saw. For a couple of weeks now I have been having intermittent problems with the start-up. I can be using the machine for 20 minutes or so and, when I return to the machine it will not start up. I have checked the supply...

Some great advice there so many thanks to G S Haydon and rafezetter, I think I know where I'm going now. Thanks again.

Hello folks, I am just about to build a couple of garden gates. They will be about 1900mm by 800mm and will be constructed in the ledge and brace manner. I will be using pressure treated tongue and groove that is 85mm wide by 15mm thick and the ledge and braces are again pressure treated and...

hi Richard S, thank you for coming in on this. Can't say that I have ever heard of a track saw, can you enlighten me please. Thanks again for offering guidance.

What a brilliant link that is, thank you. I am wondering if I can knock something up quickly as it's not a special job really. I'll go and have a look. thanks again.

Hi folks, hope you are all enjoying this bit of sunshine we are getting!!!! Quick question that I can't seem to get my head around please. I need to cut some 6ft lengths of timber on my table saw where the finished article is tapered, i.e. 3" wide at one end tapering down to 1.5" at the other...

Agree totally with the above, definitely Toolstation or Screwfix. Toolstation usually deliver FREE next day for orders over a tenner. I think you have to spend £50 for the same service from Screwfix. never had any problems with the screws from either.

IU had one of these for quite some time and it did everything that I wanted it to, no problems whatsoever. I bought it from one of Yandles shows in Martock. Hope this helps a bit.

Hiya gregmcateer, I would imagine that Hudson Carpentry means 75% of current new prices as i wouldn't want to sell it at 75% of current used prices. Having said that, when I decide on what would be a fair price to sell at I would obviously listen to any sensible offers.

Hello, Thank you for your advice on this. I have been scanning the net this morning to see if I can spot the sort of prices being asked but have not had any joy. Although all of the parts are still available, I don't think that the 315 is made any longer, i suppose that it has been superceded...

Hello Spiffy, just wondered if you have looked at my thread 'A little bit of help and guidance please' it is just above yours in the same section. I have a band saw that I am looking to sell.

I am going to have to sell some more of my woodworking equipment and would be greatly appreciative of a little guidance please. First off I am looking to part with my Elektra Beckum BAS315/4 GWN 55 Bandsaw. Thsi bandsaw is absolutely immaculate and if you stood it next to a brand new one you...

Thank you for this. When I phone in the morning I will mention this and see what they have to say.

Hi phil.p Thank you for that information, so it would seem that I will be better off going for the birch ply. In actual fact, Jewsons of Exeter do have birch ply in stock but, my my local one here in Exmouth don't carry it. I would have popped down to my local store tomorrow to pick it up but...

Thank you to all who have offered advice to me. I think that I now have the situation well in control. Just one final thing please. Apart from the obvious, is there any difference between ordinary ply and Birch ply as my local Jewsons only have ordinary ply in stock, i.e. is it purely a...

Hiya, if you would use biscuits in the assembly process, what size ply would you be using?

Hello again Jacob, i am planning on creating a drawer that will be three CD's wide with 30CD's to each row, giving a total of 90 CD's per drawer with the weight being somewhere close to 20lb (about 9kg) per drawer. Any further thoughts? I am extremely grateful for your input.

Thanks for your input Jacob. Sounds simple enough, though you didn't mention whether or not you thought that the 3/8" ply was sufficient to do the job. Not too keen on the idea of glue and nails on the main structure though. I have always used dowels and biscuits (plus glue of course) in the...

Hello folks. I'm looking for a little help please. I am about to make a small unit to house my wifes CD's. I shall be making the unit out of some oak that I purchased many moons ago but I am wondering what to use to make the three drawers. These drawers will be faced with the same material as...

Hello John, Thank you for your response. A friend of mine has been toying with the idea of getting a Triton so if he gets it I will be able to make a decision on whether or not to get one myself. Is the motor noisy then? (MOSF ????) sorry to appear dim! Whereabouts are you in the big city...
