You can use the parcel2go.com website which will give you a list of carriers and what they would charge and then go from there, I've used TNT, CityLink, ParcelForce a few times and haven't had issues with them. Personally speaking the last couple of "big" items I've sold on eBay I've let any...

Very slowly Pete - electrical problems between the house and the garage means i'm not spending a great deal of time on it all as I don't want to do a less than 100% effort on it but the sparks should be in within the next few weeks to sort it. My current progress right now is coming up with a...

I can tell you straight away that will NOT have an induction motor, £146 is too cheap for an induction motor bobbin sander. False advertising on the website.

Wow this was definitely worth the wait Pete - it looks brilliant! Simple joinery, functionality, storage aplenty - that is going to be one useful TS workstation which could double as a small work table with the blade guard removed, blade lowered, board on top etc. etc. Great job again.

Hi Cheerup347, I have a Scheppach version of this sander and yes my one is loud too, loud enough that I wear ear defenders when using it and loud enough that I may upgrade to one with an induction motor that also comes under many brands. Noise aside I do agree with you that its very good at...

I've known people who have done this with r/c cars, a Matchbox dinky car collection and a picture of Alan & Jimmy Carr but this is the first reply I've seen or heard of, they probably get this a lot but brilliant nonetheless!

Good job Pete, mine has been a work in progress pretty much for the whole of this year due to other things going on. Just out of interest how did you settle on the design?

I have a 01344 but no manual either but I downloaded one for a Metabo HC260 - it's essentially the same machine. You can also get a parts diagram of the machine from a quick search online, the capacitor is located close to the motor.

Great job - I think functionality trumps the presentation when it comes to these workshop aids and it looks like it will serve you well. Will you put something on the other surface like a belt / disc sander?

Now confirmed its opening 14th October: http://www.axminster.co.uk/news-and-pre ... -artlnews/ Anybody planning on going down on the launch weekend 19-20/10?

I know a couple of folk local to me who have gotten cheap worktops from kitchen fitters fairly cheaply, new ones with a bit of damaged and also ones they had removed from refits. Perhaps something to consider..

Hi Reg, The chances are your Sky remote was set up specifically for your old TV, now you've swapped TV's and makes you'll need to reprogram the Sky remote to make it work for the new TV. This link should see you through the process: http://help.sky.com/tv/your-sky-remote- ... ol-your-tv PS...

I've seen the Axminster ones up close and personal and they're not bad clamps by any means, my friend who has them has around 10 but swaps them onto different pipe lengths when needs dictate says they will make marks on edges easily so uses same scraps as protection but he's never had problems...

PeteG, It's hard for me to compare it with an equivalent but I'd say at the lowest speed setting it is fairly quiet, put it this way I usually have some music playing when I'm working but I never have to turn it up above "normal" to drown out the noise of the AF. Even when I don't have any...

I have had this one http://www.dm-tools.co.uk/product.php/s ... n/RPWAC400 since last summer, works pretty well in my 15x9' workspace.

The early series from around '88 to '93 are on YouTube, the NYW has come a long way since those days...

That's a really great build Billy - love it! I did something similar a while ago but with 5 bottles. I pretty much followed the design as per http://www.cnczone.com/forums/woodworki ... ector.html, a couple of pics of my efforts: The main problem was it frequently got clogged at the...

I bought this model on the strength of the reviews, it wasn't too bad for a first foray into biscuit jointing however my main bug bear with it was I could never get the height adjustment to stay the same no matter how tight I fastened it. One of the first times I used it for was to edge band a...

Barkwindjammer can you give me an idea on the height and width of the cleaner please?

An Axminster right in my home town?! Awesome if true!
