As Roger says the SCMS if the timber fits and you have the support I also have the Incra V27 mitre gauge where you have to make your own fence but costs £49 which is cheaper than the £129 with a fence attached.

The ones from Rutlands are a little cheaper at £26.95 http://www.rutlands.co.uk/cgi-bin/psProdSrch.cgi/@cClamps%20-%20Edge%20Gluing@b::0::user::1,0,0,1::

Are their any users of the ClearVue 6" diameter cyclone?? I have built one but an not getting the separation that i expected and too much dust is ending up in the vacuum. I also have a Triton dust bucket modified cyclone that is letting virtually nothing through to the vacuum. If you can...

This is getting as bad as The Aussie site - there was a thread about who had the biggest workshop. Some of the largest were bigger than a good few houses in the UK - it raged for weeks - boys and their toys. Then some bright spark started a thread on who had the smallest(workshop) - not too many...

It will work best with a 2HP extractor. A 6" hose from your extractor to the top of the cyclone and connect 4" pipe to the inlet on the side.

Colin at present it will handle a 2" or 1.25"(vacuum cleaner) connections. I am putting the air ramp in in the morning and will test it on Sunday Let you know the results. Barry

Thanks to all - I will try the council again after doing some research and will also contact the water people in our area. It should have dried out by Saturday. Got the RCD working today and lifted all plugs off the floor. Fixed 4 way extension plug to the wall. Two got very wet. Barry

Philly as you did not have room for your big cyclone I consulted the Witch Doctor and shrunk the cyclone. Its is now a little six incher. Hope this helps

Tony with your .5micro bag Phillys would win hands down. Philly's construction will be first rate . I don't need to visit - the hammer and your dovetails convinced me. Barry

Philly I knew you were a bad boy - where is the 1.6 to 1 cone to body ratio . Why is your inlet ramp at 90 degrees to the cyclone body? Did you build an air ramp? Don't use gaffer tape use PVA glue and spray it with hammer finish paint - it looks if you welded it. Oh well - it will work...

I am waisting my time with the council - they sited once in 25 or 50 year problem - said it occurred twice in two months. No joy at present - think I will put sand bags at the garage door. Still has not dried out - the mud is getting me down. I will spend time at the weekend getting it right. Barry

By the sound of things you did not follow Bill P to the letter like me. You are now considered to be a bad boy and giving it away will not absolve you of the crime. Ha ha !! Philly show us a picture to determine how bad your crime is??? Barry

Thanks Denny I went with Carlsberg's option and used MLCS in the USA. For 6 dovetail and 2 straight bits it cost under £40 with shipping. Barry

Thanks CYC I will have to reverse a few more than you had to. Barry

My DW701 was at 90.1 - as expected. Great tool thanks Ray. Glad I bought one. What more do you want Barry

Thanks to you all for the comments - I walked in to the workshop this evening and walked straight out - I will face it in the morning. The water level is down from 2 " to patches of an 1" and some areas with no water but the sand has settled. I will wait for it to dry and use the cyclone hose...

I used the Charnwood ones at £6.50 (plastic). Some leak when closed - you hear a hiss from them with the 3HP motor going. I used about 10 and felt the the aluminium ones cost too much. Barry

After the last flood I cleaned out all drains and checked that the soak aways were working. During todays down pour I discovered the problem - I am at the bottom of the road and the drains up the road are blocked and all the water is pouring into my drive way and flooded my workshop with 2" of...

Thanks Dave R but Woodpecker wants us to deal with the local agent else they charge loads for carriage(more than double what Rockler charge).Searching the Uk suppliers for the 5 required with 1/2" shanks - they appear to be Diameter Degree Dept of cut 1/2 14 1/2 1/2...
