    Everbuild D4

    Brilliant stuff, but if you buy it check the dates. I've just bought a litre, the use by date is specified as being six months from the date of manufacture. Mine was manufactured 10/23. Through Amazon, I'll get it replaced or refunded.

    US Election November 5th

    I remember giving my grandfather (who lived through both wars) a history book by AJPT back in the '70s. after I'd read it for history O level. He just laughed and said to ignore it he was no more than a pig ignorant communist who knew nothing.

    Swan neck hollower

    My go to wood for handles is what I've got to hand. I've made straight tools before, really basic metal work if you have drill bits and taps. I tried the cheapest tips I could find - about £5 for three at the time - and they were fine.

    We Will Remember Them

    My father was young but worked on rebuilding and demolition work in London in the later years of the war. To the day he died if he heard German spoken in a bar or restaurant he'd order us to leave. His brother was 14 years younger and after the war got a German penfriend - Herman. He attended...

    Political compass

    I suppose when compiling the questions it would make no sense to have a "none of the above" - after all it's only to get an idea of leanings not an indication that someone should be shot at dawn. I found a few 55%/45%.

    Random orbital sander vibration shortlist

    Incidentally, I use decent quality discs (cheap ones are a waste of time) for decorating and anything likely to be a bit sticky as they tend to get ruined quite quickly, but for clean wood get 3M Cubitron - expensive, but better even than Abranet. I piece of crepe rubber or a lump of set...

    Random orbital sander vibration shortlist

    I have a 5" DeWalt, it might not be the best but it does everything I want. It's fine. I use it mainly where the extraction isn't too important and often use 6" discs that I've picked up on really good offers (Yandles - get on the mailing list).
