    P/T Making a Strange Noise

    Right i know what it is now, Somehow the belt has had 2/3 of the grooves ripped off, thus causing it to pull towards a certain direction. To confirm this i reversed the belt, and it pulled the opposite direction, and then pulled off :roll: So it looks like a new belt is in order, I've just...

    P/T Making a Strange Noise

    Veneering book

    Or you can put a lipping all around the piece (the same as your veneer) and then just veneer ontop of that. Using this method you can put a chamfer on it :) Hope this helps Ta, Tom

    Those walls are like granite...

    I'm trying to get it down by using the damp proof membrane on the walls, floor and ceiling. I am also raising the wooden wall around 40mm from the stone and about 60mm from the floor. I hope this will get it down a bit, along with a dehumidifier! :D Ta, Tom
