I've got a nice big rasp, if you want me to have a go at your morso with that.

Is the noise on the fan from vibration or the actual motor and rotor?

Hi Wallace I need to make a new dust extraction cover for my saw as well. My current one is like Frankenstein's monster, but it does a good job of getting the dust. If you look at this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkZD42a2gtM This is Altendorf, who have got a pretty good idea of what...

Can Bern and I play it by ear? I know i'll fancy one on Saturday, but a 4 hour journey in a small car x2 delhi bellies might be pushing it. Cheers Nathan

Yes I made the same height for that purpose. Wanted the blocks on a shelf rather than drawer, as some of the bigger ones weigh quite a bit. Having to lift up the surface makes me keep it clear as well, deliberately, because if it's flat and level i'll put something on it. nathan

If i'd known you were going show us your dovetailer, i'd have done the drawer and trays down there. MFC Walnut Free New Zealand pine (planed down to 3mm) Oak veneered MDF Pre Lacquered oak ply Melamine faced MDF Walnut veneered MDF Pine broom handle Nathan

Being the messiest worker in the world, I need as much help as I can get to stay a bit tidier, so this is one of many storage units I have made in the workshop. I needed to store spindle tooling, mortice chisels, drill bits and router cutters. And I can store my 4 routers in the top. Any edges...

Looks like you'll have done allright for £200...

excellent. what a great buy for £100. I fancy one even though I have a 51 head borer. what's the hopper above the head for? nathan

As you say spending £700+ on a metal working lathe when you prefer wood, doesn't seem to make sense, a wood lathe and a metal lathe is on my shopping list. Preferably a Wadkin RU or RS for wood. But at the moment my budget is about 19p. Metal working does sound good though, as you say especially...

if you fancy tarting it up, you should get over to the Canadian woodworking forum or youtube and look up tool613 or jack English, and his wadkin pk. nathan

where and why?

how sensible was the price? nathan

I'm 39 and I must admit I feel my age after lifting 3m x 2m sheets of mfc all day. But you can start carpentry at any age, as for a living I think it's the kind of thing you either take to it or not, I've seen plenty of people who are very keen but just haven't got it, if you know what I mean...

looking good, i'm guessing you prefer woodwork to gardening. Is it going to be super insulated for noise? Looks like you have plenty of helpful friends.

If I was in your situation I wouldn't hesitate to buy it but others may disagree. Set up correctly, I think you'll be smiling every time you use it. Nathan

I may have to intercept that courier as it comes past. nathan

My cp32 only cost £1000, the build quality of the bgp is probably as good if not better. depending on which model it is will be the restriction on panel cutting size. have you looked here? :- http://www.wadkin.com/wadkin-library/view/207 nathan

I don't own a BGP but I do have a wadkin cp32 panel saw. I would have thought that once set up correctly, the bgp would be spot on. If so you'll be selling your track saw and won't look back, it'll be quicker and easier. If you have the time and inclination to sort this saw out I would say it is...
