Matt Estlea is a name I don't think I've seen mentioned yet. He is a young guy and does a lot of tutorials. He edits his videos well to so theyre not too amateurish. Bags of enthusiasm and fun to watch, I enjoy them anyway. Taught me to sharpen.

Come back to me in 40 years and see how I'm getting on! I'm may be on to the double bed. It's good to aim for the stars 🌟

Thank you for all your replies. At the moment I plan to make a single bed, a king size bed, TV cabinet, two matching bedside cabinets, another bedside cabinet, a chest of drawers, a gate, a garden bench and a shoe rack. I do have a cheapo traditional woodworking bench which is rubbish so I may...

One other thing that occurred to me last night was what is stopping me from buying the Festool 700 connectors and routing out the mortises with a regular router, I would need a 14mm cutter bit and a lot of patience setting up the cut, surely? I plan to make a couple of beds in the future too so...

Its not a traditional woodworking bench I should have added. More of a general workbench. I need/want a big solid surafce it will have a table saw built in (a site saw) and a router too. Aesthetics are important to me and as a hobbyist I have time on my hand. Its a bench I want to last me...

I'm a newbie so bear with me! I'm building a hefty 8x4ft workbench from ash with 6x 120x120 legs and 120x40 rails connecting them all. I would like to have knockdown joints on most of the joints however I'm not sure what to go with. The Festool domino 700 ones look perfect but I don't have a 700...

are these any good...

Nick, I've just tried it now and locking it improves the snipe only marginally, its still very much there. Yes it slaps down the timber rather than taking it softly and gracefully. When I went to calibrate the digital readout (again as per Woodgrafter video by placing a measured thickness...

Hi Nick, Thank you. I watched a couple of videos (I think the Woodgrafter) last night and I realised I did not locking down the height adjustment wheel. I will give that a try first to see if it rectifies it.

Hammerfix is what you're after.

Hi Nick, I've just bought one of these and I'm getting snipe from the thicknesses. I think its down to the tension. Do you know if it was just a case of unscrewing the small nut at the bottom of the spring or is it a little more work?

Are you flipping it?

You beat me to it! ;)

Hi, I will gladly take it off you. I will send a message.

Is a body strap type thing worth a look into you know the ones where two people move a heavy large item. Failing that I've got a plastic sheet moving handle thing that hooks to the bottom but it's rubbish as it digs into the board a little bit. The ones that pinch from the top look better. But...

Hi John, I know what you mean the base is only 18mm oak and 10mm clearance to the floor so I am worried about sag to the point where I cant trolley it about. My floor is smooth though. That board going across is the front and gives it a bit of extra rigidity and there will be another one at the...

Sorry to hear that. Just darn luck. That reminds me I have something I need to register! I've gone down the mikwauke route so far not had to claim any warranty although the chuck on the combi drill is a bit iffy sometimes. Are Bosch just not having it at all? Rules are rules but if you are loyal...
