I now use a Flashforge Adventurer 5PRO after cutting my teeth on an Ancubic Kobra for over a year. It was a toss-up between the Flashforge and the comparable Bambu. The only real advantages I could see between the two is that the Flashforge is slightly faster and the nozzle change is a doddle...

If you have a paint shop or decorator outlet like Brewer's nearby, you could take a painted part from your Kity and get your paint colour matched and mixed. Unfortunately, they tend to only do minimums of 1tr. But, they may just scan it for you to give you the colour code or HEX code so you can...

I'm still using my Bestcombi 2000. Bought it from new. In all those years, I have had to replace a fanbelt and off-the-shelf bushes for the planer thicknesser. So, for me, it has been a great workhorse for over twenty-six years. They do come up on eBay now and again at bargain prices.

Nice to get back on the lathe if only for an hour. I've got several blanks that have been prepared for months. Turning a pen or two at a time is about as long as i can stand on me crappy feet at the moment so get ready for a pen overload until I can stand long enough for a bowl.

I was asked if I wanted to go on Statins after they checked out the 'fluttering' sensation I was getting in my chest. Couldn't find anything wrong with me and put the probable cause down to stress after losing my big brother (a proper carpenter). I was in my early fifties, still working, and a...

Sorry to seem repetative, but I couldn't resist this one.

I've used Gorilla PU and PVA. I found the PU no better or worse than the cheapest PU you can find on eBay. It seems to be very 'samey' across the ranges. The important part of using PU glue is that both surfaces need to match, with no gaps. It's not a gap filler unless you are using it in small...

Not really a joke but has anybody asked Alexa if footballs coming home. Very clever.

Hi Richard. Get used to not knowing what day it is.

They are nice.
