ummmmm sweet oak, lovely job Simon :D I was just about to finally order my planer from axminster last week (CT150) when I discovered they now want £100 to deliver to me!!!!! :shock: :( It looks like I won't be planing oak for yet another while.

I also have an EB dust extractor which came with the table saw. I am very happy with it. I didn't have to change the hose. Although i haven't got a planer/thicknesser yet so I haven't used the dust extractor with anything else than the table saw. Good luck in your choice.

ahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhaha Desperate case :roll:

Congratulation Mr and Mrs Gidon :D Great news. Not long ago I faced the same situation. Afraid of breaking one of the safety rules for cotes I built the changing unit instead (chest of drawer instead) :wink:

Hi all, I have the Elektra beckum pkf255 which can cross cut the 8x4 nicely. I do it all the time, however I usually at least cut the sheet in half first. Simple reason, as many have already mentioned, a sheet is too big to handle safely and my workshop wouldn't allow me. So I have made this...

You can't.

As always Noel, you have the right number :wink: . I contacted the clondalkin shop which is the closest to me and they have the rubi cutters (cheaper than sigma). Thanks a million :D

Mick, do you know where to get the Rubi stuff in Ireland? Are you around Dublin?

A local toolshop appears to be selling the Sigma tiling tools. I am told it's a italian company and they are good (says the salesman!). Do you know if this is a good brand?

That's about right, I do slightly differently but the principal is the same.

Thanks everyone, my questions are answered :D Ike, hahahahahhahahahahhahahaha

Well done john, Jaymar, Dave and Chris. Beautiful jobs all around :D

I would certainly have suggested you buy a good tablesaw especially if you deal a lot with sheets, however seeing as you have the TS55 Festool circular saw, you are already well equipped :D I agree with JohnElliott, get the Festool multifunction table. You can then get the router table to go...

Nice I would liked to see that. Thanks for posting pictures.

Yes it's Sketchup. I find it really good for designing my projects. I can then plan all my cuts from it. Thanks Pete :wink:

Thank you very much Pete, your information is spot on :D I see some Pocket 40 & 50 cutters on Rutlands, is this the one you have? Tom I think I would get a hand cutter, I have an angle grinder and a diamond disc for the odd angles. Although I think the problem with water going everywhere must...

Hi all, I case some of you have been or are tilers (ceramic), can anyone point to me a good professional tile cutter (you know the ones with the diamond small ring which scores the tiles ready to get snapped). Also what is the thickest tile you can score and snap with this tool or when should...

Hi All, You may remember the Chest of drawers I made as a changing unit for my daughter. She already has so many clothes I really need to get her some storage. So I made plans for a narrow wardrobe which will fit in the small room. Same timber, stain and finish of course. This is what it will...

James, have you got a link to the milling machine you refer to?

Noely, this is a great tip. I must make myself a set like this. Thanks a million :D Printing picture...
