Aha... yes, thanks Phil...

Phil.. do you mean to ensure I don't get any moisture problems... I've currently got em on the living room (laminate) floor to try and keep as straight as poss and hopefully no warping. Will be trying to get em attached and 'shelved' up asap but didn't have the time today... Thanks in davncw...

I called the place with the £46 Makita today. Happy to inform that it does come with accessories. They said that it was cos thet managed to get a batch cheap so passing on thw savings... 5 lwft at the time of speaking (so down to 4 after I put the phone down).

Yes to do the first cut... working myself up to it. Let me go and say my prayers (and maybe a tantrum or two with the wife and kids... lol).

Thanks @fleyh ... The answer is probably multi-facrorial. A few reasons I supposr... After seeing some mechanical slack (or thinking I'd seen it) in the Makita which was probably me having tried to use it in hardwood. That was after it (the Makita) being away for a week or so with my dad. He...

Oh (the Imminent Festools Purchase just rrminded me), thw dust extraction seems smart. It comes with a head to connect to an extractor of sorts (adapted vaccum head!?) at the rear of the standard base. But also has a non vaccum piece that points down so the dust is blown back and down (in...

Thought I'd start a little thread about this big thing. Notice how I've not said beauty as you'd expect something being called 'quite simply, the best JS in the world', to be near enough perfect. Not that I believe humans can create perfection, but still there's certain little things that stood...

2.7m lengths of which they gave me an extra 30cm free on two of em (gave 3m instead of the 2.7). £90 inc VAT so not too bad I guess for some decwny extra storage (or at least a start).

Just went with some lengths of redwood. At least some uniformity will remain and I'm not making too many joints. Thanks Phil for that sagging tool. I'll be having lots of braces anyway and continue in the same design as previous so hoping it'll be good in years to come (from a sag free...

The red horizontal line representing the shelve that I plan to route into with a groove opposite in the softwood above it. Then the conti going roughly slotted at the yellow lines into it which will take the runners. Everything's a mess Mark and I'd originally planned to add a park tools wall...

Hi Mark. Yes, it's me Shafiq mate. Hope you're well... I'm gonna work my way down this wall. The long pieces are gonna go horizontally at about 40 or 50cm below the current 'lower deck'. Then hopefully (after a bit of practice on some practice peices) a router making 2 grooves as to slot some...

NB. I think it's OSB I'm after. It also need to look ok with a decent smooth finish...

Sorry if it's a daft/simple question - maybe it should be in a 'ask a silly question' thread... But, which do I need to go and buy. Probably need a board thats at least 2.5m by 0.5m as I just realised my biggest board I've been saving to complete the shelving system is actually conti. The top...

https://www.isaaclord.co.uk/shop/power-tools/corded-tools/corded-routers/makita-rt0700cx4-router-trimmer-240v/ Thanks for all your help. I went to get the one off IT summat. But with delivery it added up. Then did a google search for something and managed to find it at the Katsu price. Seems to...

Thanks Mel... I looked but couldn't see. Unless you meant the Makita Red at £60? Appreciate the heads up though. Hopefully @furnace might get back at some point about the Elu :-)

I actually have a 100km mountain bike trail which I hoped to ride. But it has a fair few farm tracks (public bridle way in this case) and though I started planning to ride it on Monday, I'm having slight second thoughts in case I'm met by a 'patriot' whilst on his/her land... Hope you have a...

@recipio that's correct... indeed, easier said than done. Just thinking about about how I'd ensure the slots are exactly opposite each other and square is making my head hurt... 😆

@furnace hoping you might get back with more details/price/collection on the Elu. I assume it's a 1/4 inch and not too complex for a beginner.

(In response to Spectric above... wasn't fast enough)... Aha... Yes, you're right. All I want to really do is to add to this shelving system (just checked the square and smiled to myself - not even sure how I managed all that without my dads supervision... maybe I had learnt something...

I think it's you that mentioned the router table and that 'one would want one'. It's kinda putting me off buying a router as I'm trying to limit my power tools not buy more (and more bases for them).
