No sorry I miss read your post :oops: (it was a late night last night) My fence was spot on parallel to the blade right out of the box but if you need to you can adjust it by loosening a nut. Like many table saws (including more expensive ones like the TS2500) there is slight play at the end...

Hi Welcome to the forums :D I bought the Scheppach TS2000 lastyear, you can find my review of it here : https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/review/review.php?id=21 and I can't really fault it - its a brill saw 8) does anyone know where I can buy second hand table saws/ planers etc...? You can...

Just to add to eeyore's post I can recommend the The Bandsaw Book by L.Bird (click here for more info) Every bandsaw user should have a copy.

Hi Steve, You might be best asking this question in http://groups.msn.com/ukwoodworking as there are loads of happy woodrat owners there. If your planning to do a lot of dovetails I would recommend you buy the Leigh jig. This jig has to be the king of dovetail jigs and is the easiest/quickest...

lol Chris :lol: Anyway Welcome to the forums Jeff. Jester's written some useful infomation about 'bench' planes on her website. You can find it here: http://www.geocities.com/jester27uk/benchplanes.html Hope this helps,

I went to Ally Pally a few years ago (my first ww show) and did enjoy it and also picked up a few bargins :D It wasn't as big as I expected but still thought it was worth going. I don't think I'm going this year but I'm not sure yet.

Welcome to the forums Nick :D Cutting Dovetails by hand is very rewarding but takes a lot of pratice to get right (as you may already know) but you'll be happy to know once you learn they get better and better :). I am planing to do a how-to guide on cutting dovetails but for the time...

Down at my local timber yard they say its 50p per cut but I've never been charged :D I think 50p per cut is expensive and woudn't pay it. You didn't say how much your timber yard charges?

Martin, That would be great thanks 8) If its just a small review you can post it in the review forum but if you want to take some photos for the review, send them and the review to [email protected] and I'll add it to the main review section..

Who mentioned anything about Black and Decker? :D

"Circular saw = Bodge it DIYer " :shock: You own a circular saw don't you James lol ????

Welcome to the forums :D I'm guessing you've tried your local timber suppliers (if you have any locally). SLHardwoods sell cedar and can send the timber to you. Well worth an email to them for a quote.

Yeah I'm sure I've spoken to someone before who uses a Freud dado blade in his Dewalt RAS before. :)

Welcome to the Forums :) Okay Sawdustalley has the nu-tool jointer and is very pleased with it you can see his reviewhere. Theres also the Perform jointer which I reviewed here which is £194.96, I also know Duncan from the '4ms' got one for his birthday last year. If it was me I would rather...

Thanks Argus, Mike :D Yes I certainly prefer an engineer’s square to a traditional try square. I've never used my rosewood try square since I bought a 4" and 6" engineers squares. I've never tried a Japanese saw yet, I may never do as I like using my LN dovetail saw for cutting joints...

I've never asked my timber merchant if they could get white oak but if the prices are anything like english oak I woudn't want to get it from them anyway.. British Hardwoods look quite good I haven't tried it yet but I've heard a lot of good things said about them in the past.

I have to say I was very tempted to buy that the other week but didn't due to lack of space in the workshop (still wanted to get on though :wink: ) I'm Glad your happy with it :)

Excellent news zimbo :) Try emailing/phoning www.rutlands.co.uk for a quote on the TS2000, their price was the best I found for my custom package. Poolewood was the second cheapest (£40 more) http://www.poolewood.co.uk/

I used to love it a few years ago when I was younger :D . My younger cousin watchs it now, he has it on when he comes to stay and to be honest I can't stand it now :( Its like a badly written sitcom and to make it worse no-one can act. Suppose its quite funny to watch though :)
