That is the point I was trying to make. I have soft water but still have scale. As acid won't get rid of it I doubt it is limescale.

I'm not sure it is always limescale. We have a water softener but we still have scale. I have even tried hydrochloric acid used to clean cement residues and the scale remains.

I think we used copper for battens as well but it was a long time ago.

The bark on the piece in the rafters looks nothing like box which is smooth.

I totaly agree buyer beware but to tell someone to stay away without any facts is a little unfair on the business.

You have to make a judgement. But suggesting they are dodgy because their Paypal doesn't work and an item you have seen is cheaper is a bit of a jump.

Wealden don't take Paypal, js that a "huge red flag"? I think we need to stick to facts.

Unless you have used them and had issues I'm not sure what facts are leading you to make such comments. I regularly buy from unknown suppliers at low prices, I ordered a new Festool battery yesterday for £60 that would normaly cost significantly more. I used Paypal, if there is an issue I can be...

This item was sold on eBay and my wife has taken it with her to post, I'm in Italy, but the bidder has not paid so she will have to bring it back. I'm happy to take £9.99 plus second class post at cost if anyone is interested. It is new, my saw slot is only 1/4" so I removed it from the mitre...

Never tried phone but always replies to emails

I have a friend/neighbour who is driving over from Surrey this Christmas, but it isn't important, I should get the bench done first.

I have seen them but I'm a sucker when it comes to looks. By the time I buy a Simon James and bring it back there won't be that much difference. I hope

I'm in no hurry at all, I haven't built the bench yet, but we are rarely in the UK, next time will be Christmas when I have a neighbour driving over. I have American neighbours who will have family over for Thanksgiving but I'm also hoping they will bring me leg vise workings so I'm trying to...

I had a feeling you might. Would you like to sell? I'm afraid I want one for all the wrong reasons. I'm assuming they work but they do look much nicer than the local ones which probably work as well as or better. My wife is in the UK from the 22nd for a short week or if it easier and it is in...

with postage to UK

Why is Belfast considered EU? I don't have TV so I haven't really followed Brexit that much. I used to live near Drogheda and would to pop to Newry to post stuff as it was much more economical than using anPost. Edit. Sorry missed the "when I'm in Italy bit" Edit, edit. But Italy wouldn't be...

But every supermarket in Italy has "sottocosto" or below-cost deals, every day of the year. Something doesn't add up. If Festool do a deal with a UK distributor to offer good discounts why doesn't that happen in Italy? Festool Italy would not be selling at less than cost.

If I'm not visiting the UK, Festool comes from Germany, and I think once from an East European country. When I showed an Italian Festool dealer what I'd paid in the UK for an 18V Festool drill he was so angry he immediately called his rep to ask why. The rep said it was against the law to sell...
