The Panasonic range are the best I have used so far. Edit . I went and had a look after posting, I guess this list in bestselling order says it all. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Digital-Cordles ... d_i=560820 Alan

Steve, Work your way through this thread, http://support.mozilla.com/tiki-view_fo ... &forumId=1 Alan

Tony said, Tony you are quite correct, the later model 2600 you have doesn't have the disengaging lever like the 260 or the bigger brothers of your machine. Try cleaning and waxing the bed as the others advise. Alan

Hi Tony I don't have the answer without seeing it, but I am happy to come and have a look to see if I can identify the problem. Just a thought you have engaged the lever in the correct position to give drive to the rollers haven't you? silly question I know but... Alan

Absolutely perfect sense, that's what it's all about at the end of the day. there will always be opinions about these things, but until they are tried by the individual the realisation of what can be acheived ultimately by the right plane is very difficult to imagine and so easy to dismiss as...

Olly said I have seen this piece of wood in the flesh and although it doesn't do this on the face, it does do it on the side in the interlocking grain manner you would expect from sapele. I have just made a gun rack from a board of sapele and It is very similar. Alan

Lovely job Dan, appreciate the time taken to show the process in the real world. Alan

From 1 January 2004 the mains supply should be 230V (-6%, +10%), 50 Hz (±1%). ie a range of 216.2 - 253V This replaces the UK's former specification which was 240V ±6% (ie a range of 225.6 - 254.4V) Variations should still be anticipated in some areas as the voltage will drop during periods of...

Accurate repeatability. As in building a cabinet. Safer and quicker. No disrespect intended Tom but the sliding table on your jet is not in the Panel saw league. When I aspired to that saw I looked at one and thought the solid wing and mitre guide was a better proposition. I also had a Scheppach...

They are a graphite/tufnol material that I had in my previous machine. Axminster used to do them but appear not to now. Woodcraft in USA who ship here do them or alternatively make your own from oil soaked maple or Lignum vitae naturally oily, if it's good enough for ships bearings it's good...

Thanks Tony, Whilst always up for a pint, I think the East of England section should take a breath and give ourselves time to organise something that most of us can attend in a week or two's time. good effort on your part shame it hasn't panned out. You know you're always welcome here for a...

Welcome to the forum Chris. The sliding table illustrated here http://www.europac.tw/01_Woodworking_Ma ... saw_11.htm is similar, if not in fact the same one repainted. They do two options, the one woodford choose to stock I don't know. Hopefully that'll give you some idea. I think you are...

Hey no problem, I'll walk there and worry about how to get home later:-) I need the practice I will be doing the Cotswold way in March so need the exercise. Alan

I think if the screw is rubbish enough to break then the chances of these working is remote, but I haven't tried so is just supposition. What I would suggesst is one of these http://www.rutlands.co.uk/cgi-bin/psProdDet.cgi/DKWSE1 and a plug cutter. Alan

Are you sure that's not an early production example of a Lie Nielsen with " progresively, random TPI variable pitch with reverse cut " Alan

You'll find it'll be absolutely ages before you will want to go near a grinding wheel with those chisels. A touch up on a diamond stone to rehone the edge from time to time is all you'll need to do and polish the back. Grinding removes a fair bit of metal and at those prices you don't want to do...

I think the idea of a get together sounds good. Are you driving Tony? if so would it be possible to pick me up? on the way. Alan

I think we are all waiting for a PM from Escudo? who has the info Alan

The best pub in the UK http://www.fatcatpub.co.uk/ with the greatest range of real ale.

Sounds good to me, and don't put yourself down.. with the wig and nail varnish you'd never know :-) Alan
