    Vacuum frame press membrane ?

    I have just looked at airpress and I can see they refer to the membrane as "High Strength Silicone Rubber membrane". So I will give the company you mention a call tomorrow.

    Arc welding 3mm mild steel ?

    I need to make a frame out of 75mm * 50mm * 3mm mild steel box section. The frame is for my planned cnc that I am going to make. I have never welded before and was hoping there might be a forumite on here who can provide some guidance. I am planning on arc welding the joints (I will have to...

    Inconsiderate neighbours. Arghhhhhh!

    The 6ft fence does mean that it can be given a good soaking without the neighbour seeing and calling the cat protection league :twisted:

    Collecting imported machine from shipping docks ?

    The UK Shipping Agent did send the handling charges to the Chinese company. They want £820 in total just for handling it when it arrives in Southampton. That does not include the freight charge from Southampton to my home. It is making the purchases uneconomical. Rethink required

    Inconsiderate neighbours. Arghhhhhh!

    I think you are onto something there. I have made a number of suggestions about how to keep it out. She then replies "I spoke to the cat protection league" and they say ... is cruel. Still, I am now looking out my patio doors at my new fence. If you can picture the film 'Escape from New...

    Inconsiderate neighbours. Arghhhhhh!

    That's the problem. Pet owners can't comprehend that other people don't want their pets in the garden. All other wild animals are welcome in my garden, but not someones cat. My space my garden. End of. All I ask is that people respect my wishes, like I do theirs. That way, there is never...

    Collecting imported machine from shipping docks ?

    Hi Andy, Thanks for the reply. I have spoken with the Chinese company and they stated the following "we will ship the machine on CIF/SA basis, this includes machine cost + insurance + shipment cost" This means it will arrive in Southampton. My concern is what charges I will incur when it...

    Collecting imported machine from shipping docks ?

    I am in the process of buying a 4' * 4' cnc machine from China, but I don't understand how the import process works. The Chinese agent has said that the machine will be shipped to Southampton docks, but once it gets there I have no idea what the process is regarding picking it up or how you...

    Inconsiderate neighbours. Arghhhhhh!

    I agree totally. It is sad as we all got on very well. I said to the Wife that we do not have to justify ourselves to them as to why we do not want their feline friend in our garden. Given the conversation. We are no doubt on an 'ignore', they 'don't exist' term. Looks like I am going to...

    Curved tv cabinet design question

    Thanks. On reflection, side mounted does look more balanced. When I have finished it I will post a new image. I must add that it has been a hard project. The curved carcass is vacuum bent bendy ply done in 2 halves and then spliced together.
