I am doing a reclaimed parquet floor about 50m2 at the moment in teak . Being reclaimed theres the odd hole and small gap that needs filling. I am after any recommendations for products that can be mixed with sanding dust or any experiences of using them . Are they significantly better than...

I agree with bob the egger price seems way high to me it looks like its been doubled. There are 3 bands of pricing for the woodgrains and the most expensive band is still under £40 a sheet. If you go with kronospan its cheaper less than £30 a sheet but the core isnt as good imo. Try Meyer timber...

What i want to know is what do you need to keep hidden from the missus :D cheers Jon

I was talking to a guy at the lincolnshire show a couple of years ago about his mobile mill. I havent used him but hes only a few miles from you in bicker http://www.southlincssawmill.co.uk/index.html From his website it looks like he can do what you need cheers Jon

It could well be this stuff http://www.auswesttimber.com.au/green-s ... karri.html cheers Jon

I very much doubt its iroko. I have probably about 10 cubic metres of this timber all in blocks about 250mmx250mmx150mm and it all has the very distictive cats pee smell. I use it for heating the workshop in the winter. I dont know the exact species but i think it comes from australia and could...

Looking good mooee. I make quite a few kitchens like this and prefer to use steamed beech as it is harder and more stable paints well and only costs a little more. It might be worth considering if you havent bought the timber yet cheers Jon

Ive been rearranging my shop a bit recently and have finally got around to thinking about some racking for timber and veneers. I think i am going to do something like this cheap to make and build and looks pretty strong i wont be bothering with the swing out bit at the bottom...

One thing to consider when looking at a 3 phase wadkin or sedwick planer is that there is also a separate feed motor to consider the Sedgwick ones the feed also has a built in gearbox I'm unsure of the wadkin one as I've never owned one. So having to change 2 motors and 2 sets of switchgear the...

In the interests of balance i have just bought some from my Saw doctor and they also have been great :D cheers Jon

Just make sure you tie it back so it cant fall over eh mark :D As Mark said they are quite heavy but easy to move on the floor but a bit of a dead weight to lift up so you will need some planks and i should think 2 people should be able to manage it. I have just moved one up a flight of stairs...

looks good Jason were the worktops FSC as Zebrano is now listed as critically endangered on the cites list? cheers Jon

Ive got a 4010 which im just about to clean up to sell. I can draw around the knife and send the pattern to you if you want to make your own just PM your details i wil be in the shop tomorrow. cheers Jon

Its a great drill with the footpedal being very usefull as you can have 2 hands on the part being drilled. Slight downside as Bob mentioned is the single speed mine runs at 2800 rpm i think as its single phase but im pretty sure the 3 phase ones can run at 1400 or 2800 rpm. In reality its not...

Thanks Richard and Adam will give websters a call . Cheers Jon

I am thinking about getting some quotes to have the roof of the workshop spray foam insulated. Its a corrugated asbestos/cement sheet which has many gaps at the eaves and is pretty difficult to keep the shop warm in the winter and also it gets hot in the summer. The landlord will hopefully go...
