JJ I looked in a couple of weeks ago and didn't find many books in the damaged pile - you must have been in there 5 minutes before me :cry: Cheers, David

I popped into my workshop last night - picked up my bronze 102 and nearly got frost bite :lol: The temperature was around 5 C but the bronze felt more like -5 C. I'll have to make it a little heated store. Cheers, David

Hi All, It is Metabo Electra Beckham TF100 I was refering to. My existing EB planer is German and well manufactured. Cheers, david

Hi Scrit, This isn't a snipe (I hope), merely a question. You are speaking of machines with professional users in mind, hence I assume your dismissal of Metabo (EB)? For an amateur with only low usage would you still not recommend the Metabo? I'm about to buy one , having decided that it will...

I've used these guys and I'm very pleased with the results. I had both batteries done for £50 the pair. Cheers, David

I'll take a look but I think it is probably over the top for what I need. Cheers, David

Thanks for the comments - I'll take a look at the saw in the flesh at Tools2005 and perhaps take the plunge! Cheers, David

This looks, to me, to be a reasonable unit for someone wanting to do the occasional piece of scroll saw work. Can the scrolling specialists advise? Cheers, David

I took out a sub this summer and received no 179 as my first copy, nicely wrapped in a very tough vinyl bag. This week I received no 178 without any wrapping and looking as if someone had read it and put it back in the post! Cheers, David

JJ, I've used a mixture of 16A and 13A sockets in my workshop ring, which is protected by a 32A MCB. Any kit over 2Kw is best provided with a 16A socket point so as to ensure the inrush current doesn't wack the fuse. Cheers, David

JJ, You could try Austen Knapman in Paignton - they are steel stockholders but can advise on where would be the nearest place to go. BACO in Valley Road Plympton stock everything you can think of in the way of aluminium. Cheers, David

Thanks to Philly for the advice re the offer at Handytools - I've just received email to confirm that my order has been shipped 2 hours after placing it. Cheers, David

Looks as if I'm the first to have a negative view of the new look GWW. My first impressions were of how short the items are and in many cases very simplistic. I thought that the previous issues had established a well deserved reputation for clarity and quality. I don't think it was broken so why...

Hi, I agree with Alan that the lack of safe practise in the video was worrying. Cheers David

OK - I read the review but not the comments :oops: It is a clear now :lol:

I'm curious about Alfs' latest Avatar activity - can we hear more? Cheers, David

Bárð the Angry There sem to be a lot of us about :lol: Cheers, David

Hi Neil, Seems as if this one is more of a Rat vs. Leigh than true opinion of rats! Still the 'rules' were clear! Cheers, David

Axminster, Perform, Trend, Mickey mouse and CMT. Of those the CMT and Perform seem the best. Cheers, David

I have a LittelRat but I'm certainly not evangelical about it - so Alf can we have a RadioButton with "Yes I have a Rat but I'm not necessarily evangelical about it" ? Unconvinced David
