Thanks for the heads up on BPI Auctions. I'd never heard of them. Just registered. Looks professional, a good website and could be miles better than eBay? Checking it out now

Thank you for the tips @sams93 I’ll have a think about the stuff you’re using. Sound interesting. Chris

Hi there, Like many, I have a small workshop (7.0m x 4.0m x 2.7m) and need some better dust extraction for various tools. I'm another amateur floundering on what to buy on a budget. My Festool CTL Midi copes admirably with my Kapex60 and RO150, but I find myself continually clearing up after...

Err, did you mean a cobbler’s last?

Left or right, trash is trash. Buy a quality paper, be it the Guardian or the Telegraph or both. With both you could receive a balanced view. Happy days.

When I look at workmanship of this calibre I feel somewhat inadequate LOL. I know you know this, but I’ll say it anyway. You’re both very clever, exceptionally intelligent people with exceptional skills in particular areas of activity. Genius springs to mind. ‘We’ll done’ is an understatement...

There’s even a remote possibility that you have a break in the saw’s mains cable. These breaks can be infuriatingly difficult to find and can occur when the cable(s) are strained frequently. Just a thought. A volt stick might help you here?

This is boring.

You don’t say! My first car was a white Ford Anglia 105E too :-) There wasn’t much ‘de luxe’ about it, but it felt like a racing car to me, haha.

… and a sixpence was also known as a tanner. Or was that only in Geordieland?

The vernacular was “half a crown”, just saying. And a “2-bob bit”, ie, 2/-, would have been equivalent to 10p. Some of the 2-bobs, or two shilling pieces, we’re marked “Florin”. Aaah, back in the day… :) Puts me in mind of the quite funny Michael Palin/Monty Python sketch, where all these...

With good exchange rate maybe Sachakins: I can remember way, way back when a $ was worth 6s 8d, ie, $3 to the £. I don't think today's rate of $1.31 to the GBP is particularly good! Would anyone care to enlighten me here?

Krome10: one way to understand relative humidity versus absolute humidity is to consider the space (the room) as a balloon. At any given point, the room/balloon will contain a certain amount of moisture, or water vapour, which can be expressed in g/kg - grams of air per kilogram of water. If...

You can't fail with a table-saw. The track can slip, so you might prefer the table- to the track-saw. As mentioned, it depends on what other stuff you might/intend to do.

I've never had a table saw before, so was apprehensive about buying one when I obtained the De Walt DWE7485, which I would thoroughly recommend. Yes, it's loadsa money DeWalt DWE7485-GB 240V 210mm 1850W Compact Table Saw but, as others have stated, you'll easily sell it. Who knows, you might...

Thanks for the compliments. I'll pass them on to the assembler!

... the link worked for me. But 165 miles is a bit of a trek to view lots before the sale. Ah, well.

Hi there Blister, I have a Festool OF1400 on a UJK table and a De Walt DWE7485. Will your Camvac 'suit' them, or will I need other stuff/duct/et al? Chris

Mikej460: tomorrow never comes? I'm in the market for a Hormann door 7'0" high, 9'6" wide! Chris

Hi there BEE13. Is this still available? What's your postcode? Chris
