Excellent thanks. Bloody stuff's a dust magnet!

Does the DPM ned to stick out like this or cam it be trimmed black flush with the wall?

Sorry, by cost I was wondering how much to buy a ready made set. Based on the online prices from a nearby timber merchant, raw materials would cost £130. The example shown is on ebay at a cost of £275 but I have seen what appears to be identical spec items costing more than twice as much. No...

This is my workshop door: To the untrained eye - and not without good reason - this looks a lot like an up-and-over, common or garden garage door. As such, it has it's limitations: 1) when open, it extends into the workshop by over four feet at a height of just over six feet off the ground...

Sent you a PM t'other day.

Excellent, thanks for letting me know.

Found him the right side of entertaining and informative if at times a little too "inyerface" when he was just a regular bloke but find his newer, largely infomercials less useful.

LOTS! I bought a box of 5000 for all these wondrous things I was going to build and I reckon there are still at least 70% of them unused. Having paid £35+ for a box of 500, £100+ for 5000 seemed an absolute bargain.

I see Dewalt offer a mains adaptor for their 54v cordless mitre saw but not the table saw; I was wondering if there was a perfectly good reason why they can't? Or if it would be possible to construct an adaptor that would allow the DW7485 to operate off the mains?

ebay can be a strange place. Thing that bewilders me is those who allow 'best offers' then reject all offers even when within a penny of the BIN price!

That relates to an earlier post that said apprentices used to be taken on close to the end of the "master's" career. Makes sound sense too. I left my former career nearly ten years ago now. I spent the last few years training eastern Europeans who would work for a fraction of the money a Brit...

What's wrong with Aberdeen? It's produced some great things over the years - like me! Okay, I take your point. Re: Planing. As noted, it is a thicknesser however with the use of a sled it can be used to plane one side flat then flip it over to get the final thickness. Even when thicknessing I...
