Ha! Now there's a question. I got it out ready to take and thought, I'll just give the switch a few flicks and blast it with clean air. Did that and a quick test and it was working! So no, not taken it in. I have probably taken it in and been told no fault found. I did take my table saw...

Well as there was a £50 Axminster gift card in the box I decided to pop out and spend it today. Bought a Festool OF1400 and a CXS as well as a few other bits I needed. I think MRs Stu will know that they weren't quite in the £50 budget but the tax man has just given me back some money of mine...

The bottom drawer is 550mm deep and around 400mm wide and 250mm high. I don't want to put finger holes in them (nice idea) because the drawers need to be secret hidden drawers! Basically my daughter is at an age where she is growing out of toys but would still like a few but she doesn't want...

I am making a staircase (sort of) for my daughters loft bed. What I actually doing is making drawers of different sizes that will form the stairs. Because they are stairs she doesn't want handles etc so I bought some "push to open" sliders. I made the first drawer and whilst it works the push to...

Today is my Birthday and my loving wife went to Axminster (without me!) and got me this for my Birthday! There was also an Axminster gift card at the bottom of it below some Green and Blacks chocolate. Happy days! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ah, well that's a bit different to my expectation of having to find a box and then go to the post office. Even I might manage that! For some reason I just can't be arsed with the post thing. I've got loads of things I could sell on eBay but the thought of boxing and packaging and labelling and...

Anyone going today - do please feel free to mention my order! Maybe when buying something tell them you don't want the same experience as me! :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well no delivery yesterday either. That's despite the call I had from them on Tuesday morning so 3 working days later I'm still without my order that was already a week old when I spoke to them. It actually makes the situation worse. Until I emailed and they called me they are able to hide...

I'm not familiar with the thread but I do agree with some of the comments on here. If you post something to the world then you shouldn't naturally assume the reaction will be positive. However there are always ways of saying things and it would be nice if we all thought a little more about the...

Well still no delivery yet. Hopefully today will be the day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Probably because that will involve boxing it up and going to a post office? If that's the case then it will take months for me to get it sorted. My table saw has been waiting to go back to Axminster for a year and only because I've not got round to boxing it up (and finding a box big enough) I...

As per the post above - I went right past Axminster! I got about 10 miles from them and realised I was going to pop in with the domino, so currently no change in status! I'm sure I'll be up there soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I hate that. I used to love scrap heap challenge (I suspect I'm not along on here) and I used to get frustrated with "coming up after the break" and then after the break we'd have a recap on what had happened so far. I might not be in Mensa but I can remember why happened 5 minutes ago and I...

Also love poly X! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was talking to a chippy today and he was raving about Panasonic mainly due to their batteries. As he said they are an electronics company and know a lot about battery technology. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good to hear a positive. I got a call from them today following my email and various social media posts. They explained it was the plane sock that was out of stock and that they could part ship. So my Kreg jig and screws should be with me shortly and then the sock to follow. I did get good...

A few weeks ago I ordered a Kreg mini jig from Yandles along with a plane sock from Veritas. They phoned me up to tell me that the plane sock wasn't in stock (I'm sure the website said it was). I replied saying "ok just knock it off the order as long as the Kreg jig is available as that's the...

Peter did have a similar issue and did email me about it. I'll be going past Axminster on Tue so I'll drop it in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

96mm centres are multiples of 32mm and for some reason 32mm is used a lot for systems. I'm sure someone knows why. The Festool hole rails are 32mm and shelf pins are 32mm. The Festool MFT is 96mm centres. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well regardless of what is the best option the reality is that I bought a domino and therefore would like it to work. Well actually it works but I'd like it to stop working when I want it to! I just wondered if anyone else had had the same issue. The production line thing is an interesting...
