Thanks for all the replies. I can't get the merchant to cut it as the only place near me that sells it (and fortunately sells bb Birch ply at a fair price) deals wholesale and therefore it's a whole sheet or nothing. I've borrowed an ancient Ferm (I know I know) saw that a friend had going...

Ordered a few more cutters from Wealden last week and as always, delivery was quick and the cutters seem great. One though, a 6.0mm straight 2 flute, has chipped on the first usage. The wood was a fresh walnut blank, no knots, no nails etc. I'm going to contact them on Monday but does anyone...

That would work perfectly for me. What do you support the piece with? Do you freehand the cut then or have you got a piece of 8' straight edge material and clamps? Thanks.

As per the title really, I'm not after something that can be relied on to do accurate cuts as I will do finishing cuts on my table saw or RAS. What I am after is something to rip 8'x4' boards down to something a bit more manageable before manhandling them in the workshop. Would any old track...

Interesting, not tools that I've seen before. How is he mounting the doll's head?

Related to us slightly off topic possibly - why is the vacuum pickup at the front of the blade and not the rear please?

Which one did you go for gareth?

Right angle template with a router with a wide guide bush fitted would be simple and quick.

I nearly got a c beam machine a while ago, but couldn't make space for it. I believe the c beam is more precise, albeit the basic model has a smaller footprint than the ox.

Thought I'd update this now that the build is underway. I'd class this as a fairly normal Norm build, with the alterations of: - TWX7 RT001 as the tabletop, on a removeable plywood base for any future usage. - An extra 4" depth at the back for putting "stuff" when you're using the table (e.g...

Is this a question about the tools, or de-rusting? I'd suggest a paste of Deox-C for rust removal, very effective and low effort.

Based on what you've described there, the airflow you need is high velocity in a small area to pick up from those tools. That gives lvhp. For picking up cnc debris that escapes the shoe, you'd be better encasing the machine and having a secondary system pulling hvlp through the cabinet

You want LVHP. I'd suggest a good workshop vacuum with a DIY cyclone and drum in the middle rather than buying an all-in-one solution personally.

Here you go, you'll have to resize to suit your printing scaling, but the proportions are right.

Happy to do it tonight if needs be.

Pc and ps4 here. Great fun in an evening, but don't give the lasting sense of achievement I get from making something

On a budget you can't really beat the tritons for table use. I'd suggest the MOF001 but from your post I suspect the cheaper JOF001 might be the better option.

As I'm trying to improve my skills and get precise with my joints etc, I've now started getting a bit obsessive over accuracy, and the small amount of play present before now bothers me. It'll just be play in bearings etc but I'm tempted to replace outright. Thanks for all the comments...

Thanks, the current version seems to be the LS1018L which isn't that dear at all. I'm going to have a bash at stripping my Dewalt today to see what can be done, otherwise I'll flog it and invest in the Makita I expect!

Following on from my RAS repair thread, I'd like to ry and dowbselect an SCMS option. I'd like one that can take a 10" blade since I already have some, other than that I'm flexible. Accuracy is my most important requirement, I want very good repeatability and accuracy to be able to crosscut...
