I was in a chandlers yesterday and a lot of stuff seems to have a high price tag because it's Marine based. However I did love the shop, you could buy a single bolt or screw if you needed to. Loads of clips, fastenings and do up things! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I know I've waffled on but just going back to the point about buying CD's and that with Microsoft you're buying a licence. I wish DVD's etc was like buying a licence. Then when I bought a DVD player I could have paid a nominal fee for the media (not the licence) for the same content on DVD and...

The HiFi analogy is interesting and I think it proves my point. I buy a new DVD player, it doesn't play VHS. My iPod won't play CD's. However let's not get confused between content and applications. Content is the stuff that gets created ie the photo out of Photoshop and you'd expect that to...

I've looked at lots of different ones. Just interested to hear people's thoughts and views. Any advice on castors? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My multi blade razor has a single blade on the back for getting under the nose and doing side burns etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm a Gillette guy. Pretty much whatever their latest and greatest market machine generated razor is where you'll find me. With their shaving gel as well. I would like to go and have a proper shave at a barbers at some point though. That's meant to be nice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is the clamp that I have and was referring to: This is the Festool version which I also have and appears to be the same:

Thanks for the replies guys. Just to clarify I already have both Festool and the Axminster clamps so I can try both. They look identical to me (from memory) but I've not tried them in a top. I was aware that 18mm was the maximum thickness but it's an excellent point to anyone else reading...

I am looking to build an MFT style cutting / assembly bench. In my head it will be around 1200mm wide and 800mm deep so that I can make drawer slides for systainers on both sides. I will use Parf docs on the top to give me perfect square cuts with my Ts55. I am thinking that I will install T...

To my knowledge this is only for retired people - certainly in my area. Seems very ageist to me! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I used to have a CC subscription but after I left my last company I lost that. I do have an older version of photoshop so I just use that if I need it. I only use for odd things these days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My neighing wasn't aims at you Wuffles, it was more at the concept. My point was indeed the if everyone had that attitude the Adobe would fold. What do you think about the "crash for cash" society? Actually to me it's similar. You wouldn't cause an accident and fake an injury would you? Why...

Well! That puts pressure on me - not sure I can be arsed to be honest! I know that's not the attitude, but I feel I'm a bit too polite and I don't want to be seen as unbritish! We have a tradition of not complaining. I think I might just wait for the Vouchers and then go and have another spend!

I'll be judgy! If someone walks into your house and walks out with your TV you're going to think that its not right. How is stealing software any different? Sure the physical box of a TV is tangible but most of what you're paying for is for the time to develop a product, to make it and market...

As I posted before I have them and they seem to be ok. I'm no expert and I don't know what people look for but my criteria is simple - does it squeeze wood together until the glue has dried. The Clarke clamps do that. They are cheap and heavy but I'd assume heavy for clamps is no bad thing. I...

I don't seem to get any mail from Festool. Do you guys get regular(ish) mail from them? Please can you post when the vouchers arrive? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm not sure Axminster would like me! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have Bessy Kwik klamps that I like and I have a few Clarke F clamps which I find to be fine. Not sure what I'd get by paying more but I'm sure you'll enlighten me! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks good. I'd like to replace the fence on mine so that it slides smoothly and doesn't move as its tightened. However I'm going to see how much I use it after I build my MFT style cutting bench. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I could have got all of that and my vac and saved £100. However I mentioned the vouchers to MrsStu last night and she seemed to think it would be good for me to use them! I obviously didn't explain about the levels required for volume of discount! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
