I've always used this stuff (Liberon Lubricating Wax): http://www.axminster.co.uk/product.asp?pf_id=22593 - it's excellent. Cheers Gidon

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Silverline-7714 ... 182&sr=8-1 I was after one for a one off job and found this one. More details and staples at Toolstation. Cheers Gidon

Thanks BB! I won't say what diamond stones I have because it's embarrassing :oops: but a red fine stone I reckon is about the most versatile stone. Going from that to some green honing compound (the Veritas stufff is good) on some MDF gives a nice edge. Adding just one more grit to that setup...

Chippy - I have seen this method used before not sure where. It helps for narrower blades - especially for beginners. In fact I'd almost say it's foolproof if you have a nice hollow bevel to rest on :). Cheers Gidon

Guess it depends on your machine, but I don't get any ridges from my Scheppach. Personally I wouldn't be too happy if I did. I know with planing you can get those ridges from the wood "bouncing" over the cutter block. Accurate setting of the cutter block with reference to the outfeed table is...

Love it - very nice - well done! What's the roofing? Cheers Gidon

Tormek is good, but still sometimes use the EEC if I'm using a honing guide anyway. Cheers Gidon

Or the US Neil ;)! (Well was before the current exchange rate). How you getting on with yours? Cheers Gidon

Les Something like this takes 30 mins to make: and works pretty well. You may find the tool rest that comes with the grinder is ok on its own. Check out my video if you want some tips for setting things up: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=3Hm4HiN2Lww Cheers Gidon

Wizer Looks like you got yourself a good deal! The extra extra fine stone is a good stone but it's still not a polishing stone, it's not easy removing all traces of the burr on it. I find the Spyderco good for that or some honing soap on some MDF, or some microfinishing film. Having said that, I...

Quidco gives 7% as mentioned on another thread! Cheers Gidon

http://www.screwfix.com/prods/74218/Pow ... 50W-Router with the recently posted 10% off isn't too bad new? But sorry don't know what they go for second hand - guess you've checked ebay? I'm a happy T5 user. It has no bells and whistles but does what I ask of it. I have no problems with the...

Very nice Wizer - well done. Nice design and well executed. I hope the little one enjoys it. My little #3 was just using the one I made yesterday and looking very chuffed! Cheers Gidon

IIRC B&Q sell it - it may be branded something else but says Norton 3x if you like closely - can't quite recall. Cheers Gidon

I use mineral oil - that's what the American Tormek representative and guru Jeff Farris recommends. Mineral oil is paraffin oil is baby oil is ... lots of names. Ikea sell big containers of it or as chisel says you can get it in a chemist. But baby oil is the same thing but sometimes with a...

We have a Plan City one - I'm happy to take some close-ups for you? Cheers Gidon

Thanks Deejay amd Robert. I never knew Screwfix were on Quidco!! Dunno how you've managed £72 - I've barely managed a tenner and I does some fairly big purchases through them! Cheers Gidon

End of this month. Cheers Gidon
