I will have a look then :)

Afraid that's not me Steve. I'm learning in a somewhat haphazard order as it's down to what projects I'm doing at any given time and my small workshop. As always, the advice I get on here is fantastic. Cheers!

There may not be much romance in that but it means I can indulge my love of creating jigs at least!

Figured as much, cheers. With the variation in most timber sold as PAR, I assume everything gets thicknessed by you so you have confidence in the consistency of the raw material?

A theoretical question here as I've been doing some reading tonight to improve my theory understanding of all things joint-related. The M&T has been around forever, and I've made a few in the past for windows etc, but never many, and always by hand, marking up "best face" and measuring each M&T...

I still have to tag scrap around it though to support the router base which is the issue.

The only idea I've come up with (and also been able to find on the net) is a custom cam-clamp sheet for this, so I'm interested if there is a better way. Let's say I have a small piece of 15mm thick stock, that measures just a few inches by a few inches. If I want to put parallel slots on a...

Thanks, where did you get that from? I've got lots of white oak stock so I might as well get some in - a quick Google shows all the suppliers being stateside rather than over here?

Well that explains that issue then! Am I best using purchased wood filler for white oak? Thanks for the post :)

I've done a fair bit of woodwork over the years, but I'd class pretty much everything I've done as either a) building related, or b) turning. I've never really done what I'd consider "proper" joinery. Since I needed a small set of shelves for my study, I thought I'd change that. In short, I...

Similar to MusicMan, I've had VM for years without any significant issues. The main selling point for me is that their broadband is head and shoulders above the rest of the offerings out there. Their old router (Superhub 1) used to have Wifi issues with some devices, but Superhub 2 solved that...

No possibility to get them running from different circuits?

Yup. Of course things will grow in scale, the scale of devices connected to the internet is increasing. Botnets have been around since the 90's, and poor default security on consumer devices is nothing new. It takes all of this throughput to target a single victim network. "Creating a recipe"...

I assume this is tongue in cheek?

Thanks for the reply, that's a fantastic bit of info because I wouldn't even have thought of considering that. I might just use some ebonising lacquer on a separate oak strip to create the detail, that might be the better approach. Cheers!

Thanks guys. @ComfortablyNumb - Yes I can, but before I start designing and pricing something up myself I wanted to see what the market had to offer. Sounds like I might be needing to design and price up a shed of my own I guess. Simple idea might not be the quick fix I had planned :P. As...

I'm really starting to struggle with having my workshop confined to a small single garage, so I've been looking at options to expand. I don't want to go down the extension route as my house layout would make it very complicated, so I've been looking at sheds. My current thinking is to put a...

Well what I bought was labelled as 32mm and fits perfectly. That said, I've never measured it myself so maybe it was a happy mistake on the sizes?! I'll check at the weekend and confirm back.

32mm hoover hose threads into it perfectly :).

I have to say that I find Fusion 360 much better than Sketchup - I've never looked back since moving.
