    I used the 4ft version of those Screwfix ones, no complaints here.

    Looks like I am going W10

    What are you using it for devon? It's definitely more than a word processor spec.

    A sucking problem

    I suspect airflow is your issue as 500w isn't very powerful for a dust extractor and going from 100mm to 75mm is going to further exaggerate the problem.

    What the heck is this doing under my floor boards?!

    Pretty sure I saw a horror film that started like this ..

    Lunchbox Thicknesser Vs PT/HC260

    You're comparing two different types of machine so you need to decide what you want to achieve. A thicknesser will not give you a guaranteed flat reference face, so if your rough sawn board has a slow wave in it then your thicknessed board will also have a slow wave. Without going into the...

    Rubbish Joinery

    I actually embrace poor quality stuff being available, my issue is when it's disguised as something else. If I'm doing a job that only has to last as a stopgap solution then cheap is the order of the day. Ikea furniture (either standard or modified) is one of my favourites in that scenario...

    Windows 10

    Any modern machine will output 1080p for your monitor so that's not a problem. If we're going to do this as a "spec me" discussion then the first question is "why do you need a new one and what does the new one need to do? Oh,and budget!".

    And.......here's one I made earlier.

    You can give me all the time you want and I wouldn't produce that, outstanding.

    Sorryto bother you again my internet at utube keeps crashing

    Vga will be fine if your screen is only 1080p resolution, what screen is it? I have no idea about their specs so can't comment on painter unfortunately.

    Hook the laptop up to the screen if the only reason you have a desktop is for that. Or find a (decent) local computer place.

    Woah, slow down DW, that's moving house because of a broken lightbulb. What issues are driving you to want to change it?

    Wide bodied planes - advantages?

    As far as I'm aware the only reason to grab a wide bodied plane rather than a standard one is if you're feeling energetic and want to do fewer strokes at higher effort to remove stock. Is that a fair statement or are there other times when a wide bodied plane has advantages?

    Sorryto bother you again my internet at utube keeps crashing

    I think this is just coincidence personally, turning your ipad off is not going to be caused by your isp in any way shape or form. Ipads are simpler than pcs so let's start with that. Try installing chrome or the YouTube app and see if they work OK and we can go from there.

    Routing gates with house name template.

    You could get a set of the letter templates and do it that way, quite a few places sell them.

    Shop Vac advice sought

    Either get some cheap dry only bags, or hook up a cyclone system in front of the main drum. As has been mentioned, skipping the bag is a false economy.

    Bookcase door

    Before you get into the design of the thing itself I'd get yourself comfy on your pivot and the required castors and floor support. For the pivot you not only need one that will take this force but also a way of mounting it, this will need to be straight into solid masonry I'd suggest. For...

    Impulse Elm board purchase, possible coffee table?

    Stick with elm for the legs but avoid sapwood? Would make the sapwood in the top stand out all the more.
