    Cam and Dowell Joints

    Saint You can get jigs - Hafele do one (search under minifix jig) but they are pricey - c £170. I think Roger Sinden has made one though, so may be worth asking him. Cheers Tim

    Guide rail deflectors

    I have recently bought a couple of these: I have been getting quite bored of my ribbed hose and cables snagging on the edge of the rail or ply and particularly the fact that I seem to spend more time worried about where they are than the cutline - not clever or safe. You probably only need...

    Shed/Store advice needed please

    Martin, I know that you have already made the point about two doors but you are still losing quite a lot of wall space by having two entrances. Could you not keep the end door and make it 3ft 6? This will still give you access to the long stuff but also allow you to get the bigger bits and...

    Virtual Memory

    Thanks guys -esp Roger - sorry I didn't answer the phone, in the middle of a glue up, always the way.

    Chris Disk is 55Gb. Have done all you suggested - not sure if its any faster. Can anyone tell me whether have a profile size of 3GB is a problem and how I can tell what that is made up from. Cheers Tim

    Virtual Memory

    Thanks guys. I had already done most of the things you both suggested. Where do I find the swap file? Can see it on Sequoia view in C:\ but not visible when I look there - even though system and hidden files are visible. It would make sense to move it to my removeable hard drive but I don't...

    Types of wood suitable for burning on the BBQ

    You should only be cooking over embers so most woods will be fine - except the known dodgy ones eg laburnum etc. IMO you would be better off using charcoal and to add a flavour you could always stick some damp shavings of oak, maple, hickory etc to give a smoke. Chestnut spits like mad on any...
