13/14 I don't know whether to be pleased or worried by that :wink:

Hi there Wincho, welcome to the forum ! 8) 8) 8) Good to see you :wink: :D

LW - Richard was confirming.. its ROUTER MATTING. You can get sheets of it from Siles & Bates, amongst other places. Its like rubber matt ... it takes a good grip ! 8) :wink:

Malcolm, thats another fantastic cane .... really nice work ! Its excellent ! 8) 8) 8)

Looking Good , Loz ... I'd do with the 'trapezoidal' flat-top, when viewed on elevation, perhaps with a step in it, although that may be too 'busy'. Nice job ! 8) 8) 8) 8)

Thanks Chas ... I have set it to one side, with a view to 're-hashing' it at some point in the next few days. :D Keep meaning to make up the big MDF + Rubber disc - all the more reason to get round to it now ! 8) :lol:

Thanks Richard. Must make one of those too ... Steve, not to worry too much Pal, - it happened to me with a nice piece of Padauk the other night too .. expanding the chuckjaws into a dovetail as described, and was trying to be 'neater and finer' than my abilities really allow ! :lol...

Whats the best rubber for the disc ? Router Matting or something like that ? :?: :)

You hit the nail right on the head there Chas .... by saying 'marketed as the be-all and end all' .... As a novice, I tried to research things as much as I could before actually putting gouge to timber ... and the 'marketing', such as it is .. does a very good job of 'convincing'...

Sounds all too familiar Gordon . One does begin to question the whole 'is it fit for purpose ? ' to be on sale in the first place. One, could be forgiven. but clearly it isn't 'one' ... that grinder is bordering on dangerous. I have been mulling this over this afternoon. Thinking about...

Just to finish this one off ... The clock was apparently presented today, and the person that got it seems to be very happy with it. That'll do. 8) I still think ebonising the 'ped' would have been a good idea... thanks for that :D Appreciate all the input, and ideas / comments &...

Having gone through all the hassle and heartache ... Tam's right, I think. A 6" wheel, 12.7mm dia, 20mm wide, 80 grit white wheel ( possibly two ). - Perfect. And the replacement wheels round about 10 quid. ... another bonus. I have learned an expensive, but valuable lesson. :roll...

Yes... and its 3 Loz .. original, the free one, and the replacement for the original ! 4 if you count Mikes ! It doesn't 'bode well' ! :wink:

Forget the Stephen Fry idea.. Dan Tovey for Prime Minister !! Thats a great idea 8) 8) :D :D oh.. and BTW .. that flat then becomes a 'benefit in kind' and the recipients are then subject to the appropriate tax liability for it.. because that is what happens to the rest of us, in...

Hi Paul ... By most accounts, you have got the best Sharpening System going. :wink: Certainly, I remember reading some lads on the forum have, and swear by their Record 8" machines ... But I too found ( after having the initial problems I experienced ), a lot of damming reports about the...

Just an afterthought Loz ... In this months Magazine, there's a full page offer near the back for readers of ISSUE 200 on a Sheppach BG. It looks like a great offer. Check it out. :wink:

Yes.. excellent Bob .. haven't had a chance to look yet, but will do. Your vid's are fantastic 8) 8) 8) :lol: :lol:

The Moose definately has them ... he's mentioned it on another thread in the last day.. He was having to move some stuff from his M.I.L's and has also just been getting married etc.. but he's said he's going to send them to Pete very very soon.. he's got them laid aside to sort out . 8)...

Hi Loz .... I got the first one, and it vibrated so violently, that it was completely unuseable. Checked the wheel, dressed it relentlessley ... then posted about it here, and asked Chas for some help, which he kindly obliged with. I followed his guidance, and it was no better. Contacted...

Very troo Andrew ... I don't think I've EVER mentioned Persil Non-Bio in a post before ! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
