I think you will find that is called the Scrit gaurd when made from MDF on an old machine :lol:

Yes i got a fair bit from him and hes a carpenter himself , he knows it will move and thats why the priming thing was mentioned . I knocked the price down because he was going to prime the tvg first so i'm not knocking it down and doing the work .

The plan was the builder was going to prime the tvg before i made the gate but he's told me he doesnt have time now and wont pay for my time to do it .......whadya do :roll:

I have a 3.3m x 2.0m gate to make . It will be running on a sliding thingy and the construction is TVG rebated into a M&T frame . I'm wondering if i should glue the TVG into the rebate and along the T&G or not . The idea of gluing it would be to add to the strengh of the gate . What say you guys ?

My spindle moulder was used to make the patterns for all the Thomas the tank engines faces . Beat that for bragging rights ....... or maybe not eh :lol:

I would use a power plane to scribe it in and then pack any uneven places with cement . if you do a really bad job of it you can always point it in after but i guess that would crack and fall off over time .

:lol:

:lol: Cheers Matt , a blinding bit of kit ! I can now drink beer and use the spindle in complete safety :twisted:

There is actually less problems with the shavings without the extractor but i will be attaching something just incase i have an idiot moment .

I don't myself as i like to pick my timber by hand . If there where large timbers that i could machine to the sizes i wanted then maybe but my thinking is any timber on ebay is the left overs that no one wants .

I would number them just far enough away from the joint where i can get a sander in after glue up .

:lol: You changed it . I'll try cleaning them first then or less wax . To be honest i think it's probably something to do with the timber as one will slip but the next load go through fine . The power feed is the gaurd . I will be making a Scritgaurd tomorrow to cover the cutter block and help...

Theres an echo in here :lol:

Will Fosters do ? Matt sold me the machine at such a bargin price i think i can run to new wheels ....erm where do i get them from then ? Does 1 in 30 slips mean it needs new wheels ?

Thats the point isnt it ? wax on the table so the timber slides and the wheels grip .

How will less wax help :?

I bought this off Matt a while ago and set it up today to run off a load of window stiles i need . WHAT A TOOL !!!! (hammer) (hammer) (hammer) (hammer) (hammer) A couple of questions if i may ....... Sometimes the wheels slip on the timber and dont push it through , not very often ...

Not seen that but was that to save time and/or he didnt know how to do it the trad way ?

I think i agree but name one that cant be done the old way .

Yes , i think it will be chucked out next weekend :cry: It will be cheaper for them to have me make a new one than store it . Shame but thats the way people think . Like i said don't get me wrong i make stuff with modern joinery most of the time but people don't want real quality they want...
