The handle for the fence is one of those where you can reposition it. If you push down on the centre you should be able to lift the handle up and move it around to avoid having to turn through the fence. It helps to tighten it a bit first so you can lift and turn the handle without moving the...

I found this thread interesting on the same subject: spiral-cutters-t109635.html

I think it depends on how you use the machine For a business doing large production milling then I would say it is a must. The speed and ease that a spiral head gives when changing cutters to a new "face" would be very beneficial over changing and setting blades. Down time costs money when you...

On first reading about Bridge City moving production to China I had my reservations - but - John (founder of Bridge City) is still involved and has even been training the team on how to finish to his standards. I check in to his blog once every two or three months and find the story...

Update: So firstly I wanted to get this on some wheels ASAP and after £45 on some steel, wheels and a bit of paint came up with this: Not the best paint job but for the moment it works. Then I had a look at some of the fit and finish and noted that one of the knobs needed attention as it...

I have used the classic 199 for years with no problems and cost about £3 each.

Seeing as information was so scarce when I was looking for details on this planer/thicknesser and now having had one delivered, I thought it would be good to get some first impressions posted with the aim of adding to this as I use the machine. Firstly some thoughts on why I went for this...

I have been looking at Startrite but have not found one at a reasonable price and close enough for me to collect. One of the reasons that I am leaning towards a new BS350S is that it can be delivered. However I will keep on looking :)

I am currently looking at bandsaw options and my feeling is that the Record BS350S would be a good buy. It seems to have a good build quality and features such as cast iron wheels that tend to be found on the better bandsaws. It is also priced about as high as I am able to currently afford...

To be fair you can not fault Axminster - they are doing the best returning items to service rather than letting them join the scrapheap.

I have been watching a couple of the Axminster auctions with interest and have been noting that they often reach 80% or more of the new price despite only having a 3-month warranty and sometimes light scratches etc (what I would call used) Is this normal? I will openly admit I was looking in...

Might be late for Black Friday - but the best price I have found for 5AH Makita batteries - £44.20 delivered! Only 13hrs left on the deal Search for B00NT54MQQ on Amazon

Well caught

A good deal on the Festool Bluetooth remote set on ebay from FFX - Just under £69 delivered Search for item - 352261289905

Very little available at the moment - compared to the deals they have in the US Did find this on Amazon: Wera-05003533001-Zyklop-Combination-Ratchet Fingers crossed that we get more worth looking at from Friday

I have been using mine for the past three months with the spring in place - works fine mounted in the table. Suggest if you have no way of getting it out you could try leaving the spring in?
