    Diamond paste sharpening ...

    Would the plate out of this kit be any use, Gidon? Doesn't seem too expensive even the powder is no use. Maybe steel would be too hard though? Cheers, Neil

    Sanding discs for METABO SXE450

    Andy, I've just checked a disk and they are indeed 35mm from outer edge/80mm across centres. They are just the standard arrangement that fits Makita, Bosch etc. as well. Don't know about the paper bag, I've only ever used it with an extractor attached. Dust extraction is really good with the...

    Pushmaster picture framing tool

    Hi Gidon, I have one of these - bought when I had to frame up 30-ish pieces for my wife. I think you've hit the v-nail on the head there (sorry :lol:). I've only used it for softwood frames and it worked fine - the flexi-points were also no problem. But I can well believe that hardwoods...

    Construction problem.

    Hi Steve, This chair which the guy on Cutting Edge Woodworker made looks to be constructionally similar to your (very nice, btw) design. He just used M6 threaded inserts set into the back, so the big heads should be absolutely fine. He also did a double taper so that the widest part of the...

    Tite-mark rival from Rutlands

    Yep, I think you should review this, and the two Surelines, and the Tite-mark mini, and a Dalziel special, and... damn, why are there so few wheel marking guages? :P :lol: If you look again at the pic, you'll see a channel down the length of the bar just like on the Tite-mark, which should...

    Tite-mark rival from Rutlands

    Apologies if this has been posted before - I've just noticed this Tite-mark copy in the latest Rutlands catalogue - at £23.95 it is very cheap compared to the real thing, or even compared to the Sureline version. Has anyone tried one yet? I wonder if we could get one for Alf to add to her...

    Honing angles on the Veritas Mk.II Honing Guide?

    Hi Nads, I hone at 37 degrees using the 35 degree setting + 2 degrees on the eccentric roller. Must admit I was a bit surprised not to find a 38 degree setting, but as Chris says, it won't be noticeable in use anyway. Cheers, Neil

    How do these timber prices compare?

    I'm in East Co. Galway - according to the AA routefinder its 86 miles from me to Lisnavagh, but journey time is 2hr 35min! Must be on the sort of back roads that I'm sure we're both familiar with... :wink: :lol: Cheers, Neil

    How do these timber prices compare?

    Looks like the Lisnavagh timber project price list to me :wink: I would say its average price for over here, and the detailed stock list shows that the quantity of stock is quite small, but theres a bit of added-value to consider with their stuff - all locally sourced and mostly from...

    Router Table Fence Design

    John, Why not just put a washer or two on each bolt, under the featherboards & router guard? This is all I do on my fence - in fact I always leave the washers in place as the featherboard doesn't need to be tight up against the fence. Shimming is definitely the easiest & most accurate way to...
