Evostik External woodglue (PVA) has been my go to for years, but I've picked up some Titebond to see what the fuss is about :D.

Thanks all. I've got some decent chisels and a couple of block planes so I'll go down that route. I've ordered a plug cutter and matching forstner from Wealden (any excuse!). Thanks for the offer Chris but I'm sorted now. Appreciate the gesture though matey :).

Incra fence arrived, very happy, cheers.

Right, you've got a few options here... - Cheapest would be to either get a router plate and drill it yourself. Ensure when you select a plate that it doesn't have reviews highlighting any issues with sagging, and feel free to over-engineer the table top - flat is key. - Worktop offcuts make...

Afternoon all! Room 1 of the house rennovation is progressing, with a bunch of skirting and doorframes turning up in the next couple of weeks which should keep me entertained for a weekend. I've never fitted a doorframe from scratch before so I'm getting a friend in to help me who has (and I've...

I'll take the fence please, thank you. If you let me know what postage is we can get payment sorted. Cheers.

What's the router fence model please, I may be interested. Cheers.

I'd get off Vista if you can, it hasn't been supported by Microsoft for about 2 years so there are no security patches etc for it.

The riving knife doesn't need to take any horizontal loading so personally I wouldn't worry about it. The important attribute is the thickness relative to the blade kerf. If you find the riving knife flexes in use then I'd check your fence as it will be out of parallel with the blade.

Have you picked those because that's your budget, or because you've heard good things about them? If the latter, what's your budget?

Well it's £20 for planed on British Hardwoods so I'd say that's a good price for it even if it is sawn :).

edthewood on eBay does excellent reconditioned planes if that's the route you choose to go.

Keyhole router bit could be a good option for the cable. Plus it'll give you a chance to practice with the router :D :D

Are you truly against mounting it on the riving knife? You could make construction very simple if it was, with a hose dropping from above to the guard, and just a length of stiff wire to hook the guard on when you wanted to lift it out of the way.

"Write off" doesn't reflect the level of damage to the vehicle, it's just whether the insurer wants to pay for it to be repaired or pay out an agreed value for the vehicle. As stated above, never accept their first offer, and I'd suggest you get somebody with knowledge to look at it. You don't...

American white oak.

Definitely lubrication, aluminium is quite sticky.

The outboard end has a left handed screw - swap the backplate on your chuck and you're laughing.

There are only two reasons I ever fix machinery to the floor: 1) If it's lightweight and could be knocked (e.g. support legs for the outrigger table on my table saw). 2) If it "walks" due to vibration. Some of my machinery live on castored bases!

Love of my life.
