In a number of cases (unsure of the percentage), the only criterion is to be BAME!

My humble achievements ran to three O-levels, but still, I don't think one can say philosophy is a pointless subject. I love wisdom.

I doubt Pence would implement the 25th Amendment and I thought Impeachment2 would be futile, considering only a dozen days remaining, but was heartened to learn that, should the I2 process at least begin, it would prevent this overtly racist President standing again. Is this true, I wonder?

Thanks for the tip, Jacob. Wow! Just looked at Cutlist - an impressive price list, in terms of choice. Don't know with whom I should compare prices offering similar quality.

I remember Barry Bucknell. Do you remember Kenny Everett's DIY sketches? Your feedback is appreciated. I'll look at 'CutList'. So you've been over the pond to visit material in 'Home Depot' and the like. Do you know if the Russian material is superior to the Chinese? Just wondered! Chris

I hear on the www that the birch ply available in the USA surpasses anything available in the UK. Is this fact or rumour? I've no personal experience to corroborate this opinion. So, if I was to buy some superior 18mm ply, where would you recommend I look in my neck of the woods, no pun...

Ah, the Licence fee. Such an emotive subject. And way older than that other irritating subject Brexit. I have no TV aerial. I watch BBC iPlayer most of the time and pay the Licence fee because I believe it’s a legal requirement. On balance, 43p/day seems, to me, value for money. Like probably...

Joseph Wahr, Finchley.

I have the Festool Rotex RO150 - it's bomb proof. Secondhand on eBay you'd struggle to find it <£100 :-(

Aww, shame. I'm looking for a bargain Drill Press.

A long time ago, when I lived in Cornwall, I struggled drilling granite, so went out and bought an SDS drill. Even then, the task proved difficult. My advice is start with the smallest bit you have and work up in stages. I recall, when SDS was ‘new on the block’, the guy in the shop told me not...

When I’m spending money on my hobby, I try to keep my wife in the dark all the time :-))

Has anyone used a 'Simplisafe' system?

That looks very good to me. Very good. I'm feeling rather guilty, at present, because I keep buying stuff and have hardly done anything with it. If I'd made that I'd be pretty chuffed. Be proud.

Thanks to all, for your reassurances. Looks like I'll need to start wearing protection when I eat my jaffas!

Hear, all ye good people, hear what this brilliant and eloquent speaker has to say!

I’m surprised no one has yet mentioned the formaldehyde hazard when working with MDF and the need to take precautions. I’m very new to this hobby and do like MRMDF’s stability and finish, versus plywood, but a tad nervous of using it myself. Can someone soothe my paranoia? The powered...

Insanity. I think enough has been said about this bonkers project. Chainsaws, per se, are dangerous enough. Why wasn’t he wearing boxing gloves? Is he presently designing a one-handed solution, I wonder?

Well Dave, I can assure you that my handheld DeWalt power drill with the Park Guide System Forstner bit supplied does make a really tight fit! Strange but true!
