    Some adivce

    As others have mentioned/asked, there could be a number of things going on and some more information would help figure out how to help :) In the meantime I would suggest completing the inside wall of the bowl an inch or so at a time and trying not to go back to that completed area again with...

    wooden buttons (plugs - mushroom-shaped) - do they exist?

    I would be thinking about movement across the grain in the slats, be it slight shrinkage or slight expansion, or both, with changes in temperature and humidity ? If they are glued on each long edge (if I've understood correctly ?), and top and bottom, any movement at all, even if well dried...

    Absence from the Forum and my shop.

    Sorry to hear about your wife John, no surprise you don't have time for much else at the moment. Our panasonic breadmaker is very decent, haven't had problems with the non-stick coating ourselves. Whichever way you go the bread will be miles better than the shop bought stuff and the smell is...

    How do you clean yours ?

    Haha, I never got beat by one of them when riding my AP50 Rob, mind you it was sans baffles, drop handlebars and I was a bit more streamlined back then :lol: Cheers, Paul

    should i just bite the bullet and get a sorby pro edge?

    I leave the covers off mine, don't recommend it to anyone else but I'm perfectly happy to do so. I guess your belt sander must be without covers too if it's similarly quick to change ? If the covers were left on I guess it must take about 30 seconds or so rather than five, so no biggie either...

    should i just bite the bullet and get a sorby pro edge?

    Only takes about five seconds on the pro-edge, tracking always remains spot on for me too, haven't had to adjust it since initial set up a few years back. Cheers, Paul

    Lignum vitae bandsaw guide blocks

    Hi, any chance of some pics of the existing blocks ? Just curious as to whether they would clean up okay on my sorby pro-edge or similar in which case if you post them to me happy to give it a go and send them back, or someone else may be able to use them ? They don't really wear appreciably in...

    Patio Table

    30mm sounds more appropriate unless you particularly want it over-engineered and chunky :) When they rip the sleepers it is likely that there will be a lot of movement in the pieces, twisting, bowing etc so you may want them to cut over-sized and leave to move as it wants for a while before...

    Lignum vitae bandsaw guide blocks

    Whoops, hard to tell sometimes ! The original guides are quite substantial, are they not refurbish-able on a belt grinder or diamond plate if they just need flattening a bit ? Cheers, Paul

    Steve's workshop - Painting the outside walls

    Looks like a lot of hard work Steve, can see the progress though, soon be sorted :) A bit worried about the block paving between the side of the workshop and the fence though, will you not get splashback from the blocks onto the workshop cladding and risk of damp/rot ? It maybe the roof...

    The great 'Double Glazing Con'

    Yes on Aussie wines, mid range anyway, and a big no on the Fosters ! You could try and convert me on the wine front by supplying copious samples Rob, but don't even think about it on the Fosters idea :lol: Cheers, Paul
