What I'd I open it and put 100gm into separate vacuum sealed bags? Our will it still go off? Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

Just started to use a half inch up spiral bit. I have been using my straight fluted bits before but wow! What a difference. Clean and cuts so well and fast. I thought it was a bit dear but with every penny. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

I've heard that you have to use it quickly one you open it, however it's just powder, does it really go off? Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

I have the 10.8v dewalt set for shop / house use where it's easy to recharge. They are so light it's a real pleasure. Highly recommended. If I didn't have them I would go makita, as I have a number of their tools and they are really nice every time (so far). I also avoided Festool for now as...

It's interesting how tolerances change. Most of my mates here are roofers or wooden house construction types and a few cm is usually ok. When they see me working to within 1/2 mm they think it's about the stupidest thing they've seen - and the sight of me out with feeler gauges can cause...

My sink pullout has high sides, so I needed to rip and rejoin some boards as they were too cupped. I got these clamp thingies from Axminster a while ago and never really set them up, so I gave them a go. They're actually pretty good. You do need (as often the case) to remember to put packing...

Yup, bow down for sure. The rip blade does a very nice job indeed! Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

Thanks. Not sure they do Mr muscle here. Some sort of household cleaner ought to take care of it though. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

As you can see my planer blades are wrecked. To add insult my cutter head is now covered in industrial strength sap! Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

I need to move into my new workshop, however there are no doors on the house so I need to build a workshop door inside my garage. I've left various tools in the open space for months, however moving everything in I ought to have something lockable. I ordered some larch to make a door and set a...

Thanks, so basically shims where I go through panel and four screws into frame in corners of drawer to hold it on. glad there was no secret I wash missing! Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

I am making frame and panel cupboard doors and drawer fronts. There is an inset on the back, so I was wondering what the standard way of attaching to drawers is? Does one shim the back? Or attach to the frame. Attaching to frame seems better add the panel is what moves. However then I have...

Steve, this was a few pages ago, however I do think you might regret no windows... Put shutters on either internally or externally. I could not work without any natural light, and you'll be in there for hours! I would guess you only spend max 5% of your time filming, however with shutters you...

It costs that much here, but I ordered a bunch of stuff from axminster and with 14.50 international delivery its not too bad. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

Did you ever get this finished in the end?

The only shame was that I couldn't take the opportunity to square up the front / back edges and bring the slabs to final width whilst there. (we had major time pressure). I don't actually think it's going to matter that much, I might set up a jig with a router at some point, not sure. Also I...

Whilst the first drawer cures (flip side of cascamite is the time to cure), I have three more drawers ready to go. Once you get the wood rat set up right it flies, although not without its flaws. A leigh jig might be better, but I can do other things with this so all good. Sent from my...

Ok looking at my blade I decided I need a rip one. And one for mitre saw. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

A few things I noted then. I am using blum movento under mount drawer guides. They support the bottom, are invisible, easy to install, four way adjustment to ensure even gap and are basically great. Plus full extension and soft closing. However you do need to cut away a section of the front...

So, I left my half milled maple in bedroom to acclimatize somewhat, and have now got them ready to go. I did one last test on the woodrat to check I knew what I was doing for the dovetail and I think I am ready to go. Then I found that with my final planing the snipe was back! Then my table...
