Head Clansman, Every one does make mistakes that is true, but that doesn`t help if you have bought the mag.If I make a mistake I put it right and I pay for it. F&C have apologized but what good is that, I still have a magazine with an unfinished article in it. Wouldn`t it...

Once again thankyou for your comments, eoinsgaff thanks for pointing out the startrite, I will have a look at one at Yandles. Where did you see it for £1043.00 I can only see it priced at £1200.00. Wizer thanks for your comments, it seems you got into a bit of an argument, but the points raised...

Many thanks for all your comments, I had a quick look at the Sedgwick Roger S has and could not see it for less than three grand new. Was it second hand?The Hammer is a grand more than the Jet, so it looks like the Jet for me. I`ve just noticed the Axminster AW128PT is available for despatch in...

I`m thinking of buying the Jet JPT310 planer thicknesser from Axminster, priced at £1400.00. Has anybody got one? If you have would you post a quick review. I would also like to know if anyone else has bought it at a better price. Many thanks, Mark w

I posted my complaint on the F&C forum, below is the response from Andrea, I think Andrea Hargreaves. "Yes, we put our hands up to omitting the machinery panel Richard had supplied, the result of a last minute change of pagination planning, and to the loss of the last paragraph of the What the...

What is going on with the editing in F&C, the article with Richard Fairbrother (not his real name by the way) says see machinery panel list, but there isn`t one. The article about Greek and Roman drawing ends abruptly with "Note that the free space above and"------- and nothing, this is worse...

I just took a look at the trailer for Rob Cosman`s chisel DVD, it just goes to show what a good craftsman can do when he uses David Charlesworth`s techniques! Mark W

Sorry Rob I don`t think I`ve missed the point at all, if you read all the posts on this thread you will notice that some people are not renewing their subscriptions, for every new subscriber they are probably losing an old one, specialist magazines do exist on many topics. regards, Mark w

I`ve just returned from a holiday and have just read this thread and would like to add a few comments. Iron balls; I think your right Krenovs cabinets did look similar, but then so does the furniture of Robert Ingham they are just at different ends of the spectrum. The way Krenov worked was very...

Lyndhurst, definition- a bit dodgy, unreliable, example-my bandsaw is a bit Lydhurst. Holtey, definition- as good as it gets, example- the joints you have cut are Holtey. Nielsen, definition- nearly spot on, example- those joints you cut are Nielsen, good considering how many you had to cut...

Try using a back bevel on your plane iron to raise the effective pitch, or hone a micro bevel on a bevel up plane to raise effective pitch. David Charlesworth explains this in his latest DVD, I tried it and it works brilliantly. Kind regards, Mark w

I understand the company that makes lumberjack chequered shirts has just gone into liqidation :lol: Mark w

I hope F&C magazine do a fitting tribute to him unlike the few lines written about James Krenov. God must be in need of a lot of new furniture, all`s I can say! Kind regards, Mark W

And don`t forget to cover it in Camelia oil after use. Mark W

Well Alf, I`ve been through the LN web pages three times now and I still can`t find that egg cracker :( Kind regards, Mark W

Thanks for your posts, I hope he hasn`t died, but I think he was getting on a bit when he was writing for Traditional woodworking. kind regards, Mark W

Mike, You should be a politician. :lol: Kind regards, Mark w

Can anyone help, George Buchanan used to write for Traditional Woodworking. I enjoyed his comment pages which were at the back of the magazine, they were commentary on his woodworking life but not just about woodworking and usually ended with a moral. Anybody know...

Katellwood, Nice to see someone else who has not had a problem with mitres and it seems as though you have done far more than I have. Nice work by the way. Kind regards, Mark w

mike, Which end of an egg do you crack open first? :lol: Regards, Mark w
