You mount them up in pairs, counting the number of strokes, rotating the knives so they all get the same number of passes.

Hi Steve, Glad you managed to rescue the video, hopefully it did not cost too much. How was the Africa trip, I hope you got to do some woodwork as well as taking video. Having seen this jig at Jon's bash, it works a treat, I will be making one. Jim for double sided blades, I think that all...

You need an SDS drill, I bought a cheap one and am amazed at how good it is at putting holes in very hard concrete and brick work. 8)

Very nice, I like the hiding of the join, must find time to try that. I too like this better than the burned pieces.

I grind chisels to 24° and then use a honing guide (Veritas MkII) on ceramic stones to finish the job at 25° and when require a micro bevel of 27°. This allows me the keep the edges sharp by hand very quickly during a job, only using the wet grinder after a number of retouches on the stones by...

A man after my own taste, I love funny bunny casserole and Bambi sandwiches are very nice. :shock: :whistle:

It is not spam, they have your email address on their list, you gave it to them, if you don't want emails from them they will remove it. It comes with a jig for flat blades, chisels and plane irons, for turning tools you can buy more jigs to suit the different tools you may have. There is a...

Pity you missed the low angle jack that has just been sold on here, would have been good for your use.

Unless you are using lots of pressure I don't think you need velcro backing, I cut the grey stuff up to use for sanding things on the lathe and it just sticks to the hooks on the pad.

Good tool and a good deal, I have one and its my main user. :D

Hi John, Welcome to the forum. :D Your link will of hit our spam trap, it will stop once you have a few more posts to your name. If you leave the link up one of us will post it for you.

Tom, Here is the one I turned: I like your choice wood better than mine, but I am not sure about the step on to the metal?

I think Bugbear is referring to a cheap steel rule from a pound shop or market, more use from blade sharpening than measuring.

I need a picture of what you are trying to do. :-k

I sort and save offcuts but when they get smaller than a light pull, into the fire wood pile, gets the shop warm in the winter, won't be long now before I fire it up of an evening. Ah proper toast lovely. 8)

Blades with lots of teeth have small gullets and are nominally used for cross cutting. The small gullets cope with the small chip type saw dust this produces. When cutting long grain you tend to get longer stringy saw dust, which needs bigger gullets to carry it out of the cut, hence the ripping...

No his 10,000 post was the on about his new toy, here.

First of all, have put A&E on standby? :shock: Is the log you stopped on the first cut you have made with the grain? The chain you have will be one designed to cut across the grain, the tooth spacing and chip clearance hooks are different for long grain cutting. You can cut long grain but it...

I think you may need to lay down in a dark room for an hour, remember breathing must be a continued, don't stop with the excitement of adding another must have to the buy list. :twisted: :roll: :wink:

But it does look more like the stuff I have, thanks. 8)
