Can't beat them if you like real bread. As mentioned in one of the posts is that most of them bake a rather square loaf. I tend to use the bread maker to make the dough and do the first proving and then cook in the oven. I like bloomer loaves and this works a treat - the only real mess is if...

Depends if it's home made or not. Started making both puds and cake about five years ago and this was a total revelation. Go and try it and see what your missing.

As the previous post suggests, share the CD rom drive on the other machine, and install it from there using the CD key that comes with the pack. Make sure you uninstall fully the trial version before hand. I had a trail version and had some fun and games when I installed the one that came in...

Not sure about the older shuffles but on the latest it's easy. Hold the centre button down and it will start telling you what track your listening to, then it will then beep. Release the button and it will start telling you what playlists you've got i.e. All music, 80's music, audio books etc...

Been round a few times, still makes me chuckle though. DAY 752 - My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I...

The tops a softwood, probably pitch pine as others have said. I can't tell with the legs though probably the same. Used to be in the "antique" trade back in the late eighties/early nineties and remember building various pieces. They were always sold as an "antique pine table" etc..., so yes it...

Get the sander attachment, dustfree sanding anywhere.

Hi, I've read the tutorial on uploading photos so here it goes nothing. Sorry for being so late but work turned into a nightmare (again), makes me wonder why I though I.T. was a good choice. there's only 8 pages so it was more of a leaflet than a booklet. Cover click on image for larger...

Hi and welcome to the forum, I've got one of these jigs and I think I've still got the instructions. I'll have a root round when I get back from work and scan/type them in. Also one of the wood turning sites used to list then though they were waiting for extra stock. Graham

I actually work for one of the private health insurance companies, whilst my wife works in the NHS so I get to see it from both sides. As most people have said, if its urgent/A&E then you can't beat the NHS. For other stuff, because of the greater resources available, the private sector works...

Check the disk for fingerprints or scratches. Some readers are more sensitive to mucky finger prints than others, and this can change over time as well. Is the disk a backup of the original? I've had problems with CD-R's aging and unlike wines they don't get any better. As one of the other...

One of my girlfriends from years ago used to work in Mr Kiplings development department, and they had a similar shock when they did a blind test of the mince pies that they produced. Not only did they produce their own-brand pies but also quite a few for other supermarkets and other stores...

Can't remember where I saw it but in the UK and Europe as well airbags are designed to work in conjunction with seat belts, as most in most countries seat belt usage is mandatory. So by not wearing a seat belt the airbag will not be as affective. The article I saw was about problems in...

Sorry this is just wrong, one very minor accident and the M27, M271 and the southern end of the M3 is gridlocked. On the other point I thought it was an the elephant was a mouse designed by a committee

At last a compelling reason for freesat. (sorry just couldn't resist it)

I'd wait and go to the Yandles show. I've been for the last couple of years to the D&M show and it is improving but I found the Yandles show much nicer. There is some money off at the D&M show but nothing to write home about. I think I saved about a tenner last year on the Leigh super jig...

Should we make it a public holiday so we can properly celebrate it properly? I might be slightly biased as it's also my birthday

Got 4.04 with my glasses, cant find the computer without them.

I'm the same as HPL, when I went to college(London College of Furniture) we were all taught this method for doing tapers, again whilst this was about 20 years ago we had no problems. After leaving college I've used many times when I've needed to taper legs and all you need to be able to do is...

speak for yourself, mine started off at 8" but over time shrunk to 5 1/4"
