    Post a photo of the last thing you made

    Nice :-) But I hope that isn't where it lives, wine should be kept in the dark ( certainly away from daylight at that intensity* ) and temperature controlled. yeah, I know that there is flash on that photo, but also a load of indirect daylight .

    Laser levels

    One of my phones has a built in level app which is highly accurate, to make it a long level , I lay the phone on a long rigid straight edge.

    Table saw with scoring blade

    @petermillard did a tracksaw comparison in which he used the Mafell, it did do that sideways blade shift on the second cut, leaves a gap.OK for MDF, Melamine etc but solid wood would not look so neat with it.

    Radial arm saw

    It was the second video scenario that I was thinking of, then again I've done sillier things with hand held angle grinders and chainsaws, so ....Off to youtube to see what scaryness can be done with yet another tool, I have a radial big angle grinder*, and a sliding mitre saw. edited... I...

    Radial arm saw

    Do you mean he uses it with the blade parallel to the ground ? :o Ultra dangerous, blade guard superfluous , how to be severely injured, or did he turn his camera sideways to film it. link ?

    What are the definitive smells of the 70s?

    Draper cordless, whats your opinion

    Agreed, they won't be as good , but given that the OP is looking a a "Draper pack", I don't think Festool or Makita is on the cards. I had a fully equipped 300sq metre workshop in the south, woodworking tools, metal working tools, garage tools including 6 large compressors ,a vehicle lift that...

    Draper cordless, whats your opinion

    I found a company who have all the Parkside stuff permanently, so no waiting ( but blue , not green , Sheppach make much of the Parkside stuff, these people have it at Parkside prices ) and Grizzly ( who also source a lot of Parkside stuff ) Germany will deliver in Europe.But since Brexit ...

    Mask Hygiene

    Agreed, but I was using mine every day for 8 hours or more, already it was costing me a fortune in cartridges to filter 2 part industrial paint ( I had reps who would deliver most of what I used from 3 metre by 2 metre Alu sheets to paint to tools and fixings, including a lady Hilti rep, snap on...

    Draper cordless, whats your opinion

    IMO you'd be better off with Parkside pro gear ( I have some of their cordless gear 5 year guarantee, what is not to like ) and a tracksaw is more use than a circular saw.2 amp batteries are OK for screwdrivers,4 amp minimum for everything else, so you'd need at least 3 more 4 amp...

    Luxury sharpening

    I only ever had one paid assistant ( about 20 years ago ) I fired him.He was far more *** than istant, and had sticky fingers, stole some stuff from one of my customers fairground rides while it was in my place for a decor. The Carnie noticed the theft ( I hadn't ) after I'd fired the guy for...

    Mask Hygiene

    Every time , just before you put it away ( it'll last much longer in it's box , or any box, out of the light and air ) rub it lightly all over the "rubbery" bits ( inside and out ) with vaseline,( unscrew the filters first ) especially around the seal onto your face part.To stop bacterial build...
