Karl No mate it wasn't a dig at you at all, infact if the boot was on the other foot I would be gooing ape...... One thing that is apparent is, if we didnt know about it, itwould it make any difference? We couldn't pick it up with a rule....so are we over engineering our measuring? I think we...

15 mins Tom where are you!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Karl BUT TEN THOU OVER 50 Pieces IMO is bu...all.. An orbital sand will make a bigger variance when sanding granted it should not happen. Will you be contacting the manufacturer?

After reading various posts I think we should talk about what we ar trying to achieve with this wondrous material called wood. We are being encouraged to buy machinery that claim to enable us to achieve lower and lower dimensional tolerances. We have read about digital read outs that can be...

Karl 0.25mm is only 10thou! I think we should have some perspective put into this problem. If you took a cut of 4 or 5 mm on 50 pieces for instance 8 inches long you are going to get some sort of clunk as the wood exits the cutters and rollers.IMO and 50 pieces??? I bet there would be very...

Sean That is a good price.....and will have comne from the same factory as Metabo IMO

The AEG is good at both, with speed and orbit adjustments to suit which type of sanding you are doing. Is there VAT to be added on that £103???????? If not That IS a good buy

IF and it's a big if, I decide to try turning pull knobs for say a chest of drawers will the knobs require metal inserts putting in for attaching them to the drawers, or will a drilled piolet hole be enough? Any suggestions for making cabinet handles on a router table, like a pull rather than a...

That does look well! I will give it a whirl on the cabinet i am making. Where do you buy the darkened wax from? Is this the same as bison wax which is very black although I have never used it, sticking to the traditional clear stuff.

Chris Do the van dyke christals just act as a colour dye, and do they say bring lighter wood upto a darker colour? You can tell I am just a step away from Danish oil on everything, after just a good sanding. Can you talk me through finishing just an oil finish please...should I use grain...

When I got my recent project cutting list together and visited my timber supplier I started sorting through his stock. I purchased some 1" boards which planed up the same colour, but the 2" stock I bought for legs was the same type of timber but darker and less figured. When I have constructed...

Is that the high steam, high pressure version with the built in water tank so you will get through the weekly ironing quicker?

I defrag and clean up disc every couple of weeks....seems to keep mine running smoothly...if I don't it clogs up and runs slow.

Studders/BSM Just picked up on this subject. All I can say is a couple of weeks ago Roy and myself had a point of view on broken britain, and you both took an opposite view. I thought the lines of discussion were factual and both parties put there points over... I thought we were having a...

Bob...that sounds like about right peter And that info was from the technical director!!!!!
