Another one for Tuffsaws M42. I can't believe how long mine have lasted.

I use a T8 with a diamond wheel and would be lost without it. Quick and easy to use.

If you have a chuck already and have long nose style jaws why not remove 2 opposite facing jaws to achieve a similar hold?

I've heard of this problem before with this tool. The issue is that there is no real cutting edge on the tool. It's just a C shape cutter with a square edge which makes it very hard to create the negative rake between the tool and wood when using it. A captive ring tool with a ground negative...

When the headstock shaft is immobilized don't use the chuck key to remove the chuck. Open the jaws and use a bar across them as a lever.

My kids do all the time with me so hence I do a lot:) I wish we knew :rolleyes: Maybe I've been fortunate but never have a virus issue in over 25 years of windows use. :) Same here; always looking for the best deal:D

Roger Thanks for the call. Got home later than expected so I'll call you in the morning. I have a smartphone but only because when I got it that was all that was available - £40 maybe 5 years ago? I have never attempted connect to the internet with it, having no desire to do so. It's just a...

Thank you for all the responses. They are a great help(y) I'm not a big fan of Apple and their products are over priced for my needs. I'm sticking with Vodafone because I've never had a problem with their coverage when traveling around the country demonstrating. The sim only deals I've...

Not retiring just unable to cope with the present situation and future disruptions next year.

Yes I got the email at 16:30. Not really unexpected under the present circumstances and with what is to come next year. It's be interesting to see if anyone takes on the Versachuck.

I'm still at it, though it's teaching woodturning more these days.

Any recommendations for a supplier of drawer runners. Need to replace the ones on a chest of drawers. Cheers Mark

Never known a graduate to be anything but 1 1/2" x 6 tpi both inboard and outboard and can see absolutely no reason why anyone would modify it to another thread size; it would be IMHO way too much hassle. Also don't understand the advice given to get a 1 x8 adapter as the 1 1/2 x 6 is still a...

Hi, Good to hear from you and keeping well.
