Actually i did send them Mike. Sent them a long time ago. I was wondering why you didn't say anything about them....

It takes paint well, very well! You can shellac the knots or drill them out and plug them. Careful sanding edges as it has a tendency to splinter and they are sharp and long.

Is this similar to the Lacey act in the usa? You have to know and have documentation of the chain of delivery right to the source of it's harvesting to prevent supporting illegal harvesting in other countries. I think it is a good idea if it actually works but we all know that for the right...

I have the bosh, older one though. With an out feed table set up behind it you can cut full sheets with no problem. I used to do it a lot. They are powerful and pretty accurate for what they are. I still have mine as surplus as I don't use it any more, but haven't been able to sell it...

I use both. I have a festool 75 something or other and a dewalt circular saw. The dewalt reminds me of the makita in shape and comfort but was cheeper. I've had it for 6-7 years and wouldn't be without it. As for the Festool i wouldn't be without it either. But that doesn't mean i'd go...

I bought the Axminster one. Well, i bought two of them because i hit the button twice on my order some how. Any how I love it!! And it is a lot cheaper then the K3 one, if you only buy one. Is it strong enough? I wouldn't depend on a screw by itself for strength on any application that i can...

Any time you are taking air outside of the shop new air needs to replace it. When i was in the Tin/forced air furnace trade we used to make up air units for commercial applications and apartment blocks. In your situation i would pipe it outside into a cyclone and back in through a filter...

Just a curiosity. I noticed this in your listing: "The winning bid will have VAT added to it at 17.5%, a vat receipt will be issued." I was under the impression that winning bid is to include VAT if your VAT registered. I've seen other listings that say they will add VAT as well but thought...

Just wonderin... why do people think Dado blades are dangerous? I've used them for years without a single incident or worry, am i missing something?

is that motor really 7 KW's? I find that hard to believe. I had an old Wadkin before my current one and it was a 3 KW motor. My bandsaw is a much bigger motor and is only 5 horse power. What size blade does it have?

I think they are just trying it on! I got a 7.5 KW inverter and had 6 points wired with a panel, supply line, etc and some 240 power points as well with inverter cost me just under £1100.

I was able to order it this morning, so i would imagine it is on it's way. But thanks for the added resource I will add it to my list.

I live in north wales. I tried again this morning and it worked! Thanks

I have to say i think the workshop builds and just seeing other people's shops more interesting then the woodworking threads. Twenty some years in the trade i'm no longer surprised by much. But gearing up a shop or installing a ducting system, simply wiring the shop gets me excited. I've...

What could be easier then doing it with a roller? Certainly not spray!!!! Unless you are just putting it up with an airless sprayer and chasing it with a roller to smooth it out. In the USA they use a product called stipple on their ceilings and it sometimes needs painting especially if...

I'm doing a curved cupboard and need some bendy plywood. I did a search and found http://www.slhardwoods.co.uk/ however their shopping basket doesn't work!!! Is it just me, i've tried in three different browsers and still no joy. Why is it so hard to spend money? Does anyone know where else...

looks like quite a challenge keep us updated. I've been looking at a few of these clocks, but wouldn't know where to put it, so i opted not to embark on a build. I will watch with great interest. thanks for sharing

It's worth looking into any three phase one as you can change the motor. That's what i did. I put the motor off another single phase onto a meddings M1 and it works like a charm. I bought a bank of drill presses that has three M1's and one M2 meddings. The only thing with that purchase is i...

Just takes time. I looked for a year for mine.

Those look like nice speakers, where did you get them? I've been looking but can only find reviews.
