Hi, wonder if anyone could help with this one please? I'm about to tile my kitchen floor and there's a very slight step (which I want to tile) and need a jointing strip where the carpet from my dining room meets the step, basically a carpet to a tile jointing strip at the door. Searched all...

Thanks for the replies lads, much appreciated. Phil

Hi, not technically a woodworking query, however I'm going to attempt to tile my kitchen floor and been advised to lay 12mm ply first. Can anyone recommend the best type/grade to use. Thanks

Hi, could anyone recommend a company that sells both decent brass and chrome back plate door handles, and also decent quality butt hinges on the polished chrome and brass? I was looking at some of the Urfic make for the handles. Has anyone used these, and if so what is the quality like? Thanks.

Thanks for the tip off Lons. Just been and got some, I got a pair of the flat ones, not the "V" type for £15.00, as you say really heavy duty and well worth the dosh. There was about a dozen or so left. Also bought a couple of Stanley "Bailey" 4 foot clamps, good quality also, looked at them...

Hi Alan, I have the Milwaukee and think it's spot on. Decent power and battery life for 12 volts, useful battery indicator on it and very quick charge and has a very nice robust feel to it, obviously haven't got the Bosch to compare it against as I was torn between the two myself, however I'm...

Thanks for all the replies lads. Very much appreciated as usual. Phil

Thanks for your replies lads. I do happen to have a few of these clamping guides and a circular saw. Hmmm, would it be best then just to leave the tablesaw alone and just draw the sizes out on the sheet of MDF then use the circular saw to cut, maybe a few milimetres over and use the clamp...

Hi, Wonder if anyone could give some advice on the above. I'm going to be having a go at building some sort of wardrobe/tallboy. It's going to be quite small as it's for a loft and unfortunately there's not a lot of flat wall for it to stand against so the size will be about 1 metre...

Hi, Merry Christmas to you all. Just wondering if anyone knows of any decent office furniture suppliers? I'm after fairly decent stuff, mainly a desk and a few cupboards, however there's that so much choice out there I just thought if any of you guys had bought some and were happy with the...

Hi, does anyone know anywhere online where you can buy velux blinds which are a reasonable price? Some websites Ive looked at are quite expensive. Thanks

Thanks for the replies lads. Looks as though that one is sorted!. Phil

Hi, wonder if anyone can help. Ive got a step that takes me down to a small bedroom, however the problem is this. I want to laminate the bedroom floor but the step into it I want carpeted as it comes straight off a landing. The riser is rounded which also adds to the problem. How would I...

Hi Roger, The company is called Sounds Great. Unfortunately the were only £75.00, which should have made me think twice as they were Bose. My card is a Visa credit card. Ive already mailed them for a refund, however on what Ive researched I'm not holding my breath on receiving a reply.

Hi, wonder if anyone can give me any info. Ive purchased goods, a set of headphones, just received them and they're an obvious fake, no packaging, and just not what they should be. It was UK website. Ive done some research about the company from where I bought them, I know, what I should...

Hi Roger, I'm just after a decent all rounder really, I once had a 10 inch SIP and wasn't that impressed, and boy was it loud, mind I think it was only around £150 so maybe I shouldn't be that harsh on it. Been having a look at some of the Bosch models which seem to be coming in around my...

Hmmm, Think I would go for the Dewalt then, as I say though on a lot of websites say the DW712 has been discontinued? Does anyone know anything about this? Any other decent ones for about the £350 mark? Thanks

Thanks Roger, Did you get any feedback from your supplier when you returned it? Phil

Hi, Just wondering, does anyone own, or used one of these? I was thinking of buying the Dewalt 712 but on a few sites they say it's been discontinued?, so this Makita looks about the next best one. I think Makita in general are a pretty good make. Any opinions. Thanks

Hi, I wonder if anyone could help. I'm having great difficulty finding some 2 inch chrome raised head screws, Ive searched all over the internet. They're for a chrome towel radiator, I only need a dozen. I think my plumber lost the ones that came with the rad as I'm sure I saw a pack of...
