Wow and only a tenner to post.

Just wondering what the problem is with using certified south american and african timbers. I am not talking about rare exotics but properley managed certified or plantation timber. Jon

Nice looking table Brad it looks a good solution for a small space. I have used wenge in the past and have just about run out of solid timber but have some veneer left in stock but will think twice about using it in the future but it does look nice. Jon

My advice would be to save up for a decent table saw with a sliding table which will be much more versatile than a cheap radial arm saw. I have a dewalt 10inch SCMS which is acurate enough for most purposes Jon

Nice neat job there John well done. Cheers Jon

Hi the kitchen is for a client. I have been planning my own kitchen for about 5 years but havent got round to it yet. I would like to thank everbody for there interest in this its much appreciated. Jon

I have a boxed set of trend cutters that came with a T3 router I bought. The cutters in these sets are not of the same quality as the normal trend range although for budget cutters are pretty good. The perform cutters are a step up from these cutters. I have loads of trend cutters but virtually...

Hi Brad / Riley I had the same concens about using solid stock rather than laminating. I experimented with laminating the frame components and found that the springback was hard to calculate and the components were moving all the time. I used titebond, Cascamite and epoxy and they all moved to...

The tiles and sink were the clients decision. They are not to my taste but in real life it looks better than the photos. A few answers for you John - should have the quote early next week Geno - the finish is an Acid Catylsed Laquer with a 10% sheen level Martin - Sorry I havent got any WIP...

Hi jake the top bullnose piece is made on the spindle. The curved parts are made using mdf jigs with a profile block guided by a bearing. You just have to make sure you have some lead in on the template. The parts are then put together and joined with dominos and pocket screws as the curves are...

Hi John the internal doors are a bit of a pain to fit. The external ones arent too bad. To get the door to clear the frame you have to put a large sloping edge on the door as in this pic. I generally get the top and bottom to fit and then keep planing the edge away until it clears the frame...

Hi Brad / Ross my Dad helps me out in the workshop when required which is pretty much full time :wink: Jon

Thanks for the comments guys much appreciated. Karl some of the handles were a little misshaped but as you say they are easy to give a tweak to pull them into line. Jon

Hi all I have just got around to photographing an Oak kitchen I finished a few months ago. The frames and doors are all in solid european oak apart from the panels of the curved units which are oak veneer on 4 layers of 1.5mm birch ply. Carcasing is Winchester Oak MFC egger board. Views of...

I have loads of brand new blades that fit a large wadkin bandsaw that I dont need anymore. If you work out the size let me know and if they are the same we could maybe do a deal. Jon

Ihave just used some felt shingles from this company http://www.katepaluk.co.uk/ They are made in finland so if they can take there weather they must be ok. They are really good quality and easy to lay and not too expensive. Jon

I think you would be ok to make the central piece from solid wood as the wood is very unlikely to expand that much and is more likely to shrink. Could you leave a 2mm shadow gap all around the granite? Jon

You could also get some from edens at snetterton http://www.edens.co.uk/ Jon edit - must type faster

I popped in for a few mins on saturday as I was passing. It would be good for next time to get more woodworking bits there rather than just turning. I think I missed you on the stand but spoke to a guy called Stan who makes some amazing segmented turnings. Jon
