Router without any doubt. If noise is your worry then wear ear defenders :)

For kitchen knives I love my lansky system, would never use anything else now. I'm assuming you don't have a wet grinder?

Try dry cure instead of brining. Personally I think it's miles better for taste.

As above, you want a planer thicknesser rather than just a thicknesser. You have two options... 1) plane everything true by hand and thickness using a "lunchbox" style thicknesser. Hard work, slow, but will give you lots of practice at a core skill. If you cock up you just have a hand plane...

Defender is fine. Personally I would remove Avast. My background has been a long time pc enthusiast, and my advice is that awareness is the best possible protection. Any antivirus program is just a safety net, the best solution is not to fall in the first place. Be aware of suspicious sites...

50 Inc?

I can also vouch for the 6 Wing. You will likely have minor machining marks (I suspect due to flex in my sled setup), but nothing that one or two strokes with a plane won't remove.

You do realise that by running versions that are no longer supported you are no longer getting security updates? There's a lot of criticism on here for stuff that is nothing to do with Windows 10! I will always look to help with techy questions on here as my PC skills far surpass my woodworking...

I don't know the layout of your house so here are a few options you can do, with assumptions. I'm not sure what your cabling layout is, so I don't know what your guy means when he talks about the transformer, but if you don't connect one of the cables then there will be no power drawn, he's...

The dpm needs to go on the warm side of the insulation so you'll need another. If you're gluing then you should glue each board to each other and leave the floor floating. If you're going to have a stable environment in there then you'll get away with screwing the boards to the battens, which...

I usually look between camskill and blackcircles and see who is cheapest.

Steam should work without issue, what problem are you having,

Great, thanks all.

Ignore the design of this table, I'm not interested, but have a look at the metal discs supporting the glass top... https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=i&rct=j ... 9344350674 My question is what adhesive is likely to be used there? It needs to be uniform, colourless and fully transparent to not...

Ok, so as per my skirting thread I will be replacing the existing skirtings in the house with some nice oak ones. Currently several parts of the skirting have radiator pipes clipped to them. What I'm trying to decide is how best to deal with this without causing myself plumbing related issues...

I know Berry's well but if I'm honest I didn't know they did any hardwood mouldings of note. I'll have a proper look next time I'm there,thanks.

My house is a bit of a project at the moment, and the interior is going to be primarily a white paint and oak theme as I like the modern/natural mix. I will need to get skirting, architrave and doors for the entire house, but was wondering what supplier to use? My default is British Hardwoods...

Clearly some strong opinions in here so I'll try to throw in a different perspective... Good technique, push sticks, being aware are all aimed at preventing an accident. Prevention is always great, but we're human, and if anybody ever tells me that they've never made a safety mistake in the...

They're big pieces to be offcuts, you'll get that out of a half sheet though. Personally I'd say get the sheet (but shop around) and keep the offcuts for future projects.
