    Thinnest stock for Domino?

    But In reality what does a Domino do that a simple biscuit jointer doesn't do for 95% of the times it is used? (for the record I would love a Domino! haha)

    Help me get square!

    Could always run it through the table saw using a spirit level as a moving straight edge.

    Agreed. Got to appreciate his design ability and surprising skill at turning it into reality with aparently any previous experience. Joe's chair was lovely too. I do love a bit of bent lamination and his design without trying to over complicate it was spot on.

    What was Rahda thinking putting heat under the Resin!!! He might have never used it before but even 10 mins of googling how to do it tells you heat is the enemy!!

    Interest rates and mortgages.....

    I think this is the scary bit I'm just waiting for. The rates have been so low for so long that I dont think people have realised just how hard it'll hit them with the smallest of rises! We bought our house 2 years ago with a mere 10% deposit on the outskirts of London. We're quite fortunate...

    Goliath CNC

    I think they're the same idea but with a different use. Shaper seems to be ideal for smaller work areas whereas Goliath seems like it is more suited to larger scaled projects. Maybe the SO can be used on full size sheets but you'd used a ton of the tape it uses to locate itself very time you...

    Goliath CNC

    Ahh okay. thats not too bad. I would need to construct a 'table top' for it that can be moved out the way when not in use anyway so if it's only 6 cm thats hardly an issue at all.

    Goliath CNC

    As someone who doesn't have the space or money for an 8x4 CNC, doesn't really want the Maslow system and works almost exclusively with Sheet Plywood cutting out fairly simple shapes this to me seems like it would really fit in perfectly with my workflow. My only concern is how well it would...

    Tool chest cabinet on wheels

    Another Vote for Halfords tool chests. I have a full 3 piece set up like the red one pictured and its lasted me best part of 20 years so far. The drawers in the top 2 sections are pretty shallow so you'd need to factor that into your decisions regarding what tools you are putting into it and...

    Shaper Origin.. again.

    I've looked at the Shaper Origin as a possible method of avoiding needing to find a home for a full size 8x4 CNC machine(Yes I know about the Maslow system). I came across the Goliath CNC while doing some research and for larger sheet goods projects seems like a good alternative if space is...

    I've just finished watching it on catch up and got to agree with all of it. The boat concept could have been good but it was like Tim had never heard of cutting at an angle so mating faces fit flat! An odd mix of tools used. Festool router and Mitre saws but Makita everything else seems a...

    Post a photo of the last thing you made

    Thanks. I'm most of the way through my first one and then have 2 more bedroom ones followed by an understaffs one to do so I've plenty of chances to get it right!:ROFLMAO:

    has anyone tried standard (countersunk) screws with washers on in pocket holes?

    I think the bigger issue is that having the screw thread all the way to the countersink head means the screws will struggle to pull the two parts together like proper PH screws will.

    Thats amazing! I'm hoping mine looks even half as good as that but I'm doubting myself quite a bit!

    Post a photo of the last thing you made

    Slowly getting there with my Built in wardrobes. Had the fun experience of not doing the maths quite right on the Blum undermount drawers today and making the total width of the 6 centre drawers to be the same as what should have been the inside measurement so I've got to remake them all...

    Which cordless system are you going with..if any?

    Haha I wish! I dont do any work on site other than assembling the things I've made at the workshop so I really don't need the cordless function of the 40V system but I also am not sure I can bring myself to have to plug the kapex into an extension lead all the time I need it as it generally gets...
