are you trying to make a spiral on a router, or are you after a jig for using spiral bits? either way more info would possibly get more responces here

unfortunately that was on an oversized tool box that I made, decided was too oversized and gave away. On reflection, I used OSB for that project because I had some offcuts, if I was starting from scratch ply would be probably a better choice, would paint quicker and flatter

I would buy a really good quality accurate combination square, as that would get used on every project and could literally last a lifetime

or in metal, harder wearing and pre-painted https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pegboard-Pegboards-Organizer-Storage-Organization/dp/B0CH81N33R/ref=sr_1_24?keywords=metal+pegboard&qid=1702583575&sr=8-24

I don't think osb paints that badly, it is very thirsty admittedly, which could be a cost factor, but if you sand down between layers, a bit more than just denibbing, you can get a half decent finish. It still looks like OSB so it will never be a fine finish, more than eneough for a shadow...

I had a lidl quick clamp, broke within a month under fairly light use, the plastic casing had given way around the pan head screw. No receipt so I fixed it, replaced the screw with an additional washer. Fine for a month, gave way again, I've now removed the screw from the problem spot, drilled...

a case of the right tool for the right job

are you making something like this? https://www.realrulerco.com/

functionally that would work, but I assume he is trying to make something that looks like a giant wooden ruler as both decoration and functional measure

not sure your asking in the best place, I'd search youtube. also i think a sponge dabber would tend to push paint under the stencil, maybe experiment with several light coats of spray paint?

wouldn't be suprised if einhell also made bits for parkside, I know lidl have sold kwb (aka einhell) dowel jigs before now. However I think parkside is owned by lidl and ferrex is owned by aldi, as I'm sure I've heard both brands are in fact made by a range of manufacturers

very true, it was more an example of the attitude than the virtues or otherwise of postcrete, I do think bringing the concrete up a touch higher, and smoothing a sloped finish to the concrete so it doesn't sit any wetter than it needs to helps a lot

doesnt help that the bags seem to getting smaller

I agree with tomGW, the problem spot is (from my understanding) purely the top right tip, so cut a triangle off the top of the door, leaving the front face in tact. I also agree that it is worth a trial run on something sacrificial

I watched a youtube video a couple of months ago by 'proper DIY' where he did a real world comparison between mixed concrete and postcrete for erecting fence post. spoiler alert, the concrete was the clear winner, not a real shocker to me, but looking through the comments there was an...

I've not had any ferrex tools but from word of mouth they are pretty reasonable, a touch above parkside (lidl) in quality, I gather a lot is rebadged einhell

that does seem a good price, I often use a 12v makita drill and impact twin set, I do find the drill a bit underpowered compared to a decent 18v drill, but the impact driver is brilliant for driving screws (i'm not driving big lag screws etc) super lighweight and you really notice the difference...
