this is an underrated comment!

If you want any longevity from the build I’d strongly suggest you alter the base to prevent water getting under the cabin. Either cut away the excess entirely or cut out slots and fix gully drains at the perimeter. Any effort to jack it up might save the immediate problem but you’ll still have...

I suspect there is more than one issue for the sticker in the vac. As others have pointed out, the power lead is moulded and fixed (not a plug it type) so you’ll have to do some modification that would be frowned on (certainly in Europe anyway). The power take off will have a uk 110v “site”...

listen to this… most dealers will offer “dealer contribution” if you take out their PCP and this won’t be offered in a cash sale. Even if you don’t want the finance or it would make it more expensive in the long run, take it out to get the discount then pay off the finance…. This can even be...

I love most of my festool kit (the jigsaw is very meugh) and I really appreciate the little things like plug it cord, common dust collection port sizes and effective dust collection. It’s expensive kit for sure and I can’t truest justify the additional cost but I can afford it so, why not… it’s...

The prudent answer is “possibly not”. In theory the stated capacity is there (a quarter of the load is distributed to each bag) but that only holds true for a uniformly distributed load so if there is an imbalance, you might overload a single bag. With the above being said... the actual answer...

I came in here to say bring them down to the metals bin at the local recycling centre but then realised you typed flies, not files....

Very little in the grand scheme, but the UK (or by that time, a group of bickering insignificant nations) become(s) the leader(s) in alternative technology and sells it to the rest of the world and perhaps then the economy grows and a significant impact to the climate can be made. However... it...

This is where driverless personal transit is likely heading. Every vehicle knowing what is around it and meshing perfectly with its surroundings. But the moment you network the ‘cars’, the network is open to be hacked.... big stumbling block

I don’t have the 1010 so can’t help you out there but I do have the 1400 and it’s great. I would say that Festool kit is worth the premium over other brands, particularly if you buy into the ‘system’. A router is a router but a festool router linked to a festool dust collector just works well...

Plastic CUs are not the root cause of fires... poor terminations/resistive heating faults are the root cause... plastic CUs just happen to burn and spread the resulting fire.

How? If the circuit protection is adequately sized for the conductor size and installation specifics, the cable can’t become overloaded? I have no issues with ring finals but a break in the circuit creates an undersized and inadequately protected radial and even if the ring is complete...

You are correct that angles are not dimensionally equivalent to lengths (angles are dimensionless), angles are defined as the ratio of radius to arc length, both measured length. Although I’m not overly familiar with the five cut method, it seems this is measuring two lengths (running length...

This is nonsense, the virus mutates because of random errors in replication... it’s not actively trying to make itself more or less deadly or easier to transmit. However, if a random mutation gives a new strain an advantage (such as immunity to a pre existing vaccine, asymptomatic infection...

To be expected due to a combination of what is being measured (deaths compared to average over past five) and the nature of what is being measured (deaths... yet to be established but it’s a fair bet to say whatever event it was knocked out the vulnerable so they aren’t there to knock out the...

I’ll grab the roller stands and drainage jig but collection would have to wait until after Christmas if that’s ok?

Just watched this the other day and I’m shocked... how the hell the experienced wood turner allowed that to happen is beyond me... pressure from the production team aside, I’d have walked off the set as it reflects badly on her! There was zero control over that tool (take that as the gouge or...

Exactly!

Looking good... I’m getting reasonably good at snowmen and have knocked out a few Christmas trees that look like they belong in one of those shops on the A1 but really want to diversify into different projects. Might just steal this idea!

Well played Sir, well played indeed!
