Mind you, it's cheap compared to this: http://www.axminster.co.uk/veritas-transfer-scribe Although I guess slightly different ... Gidon

Thanks - some very helpful info. I had considered melamine faced chipboard - in fact still have a fair bit left over from another job - but maybe a bit saggy? Will have to check the price of melamine faced MDF - thanks Craigus. Charlie - will give Beach Bros a ring - how much have you had to...

Very sorry chaps - I missed both these replies! I've still not sorted it. Kitchen worktop would be too shallow unfortunately. Will check out timber-cut ... Yes do need storage - but will probably have to do that as a second phase! Thanks Gidon

Try switching the router wireless settings from Auto, to a fixed (non overlapping) wireless channel: 1, 6 or 11. http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/deta ... e-hub-3%3F Cheers Gidon

Thanks Chris - very quick delivery! Yet to try it out but looks very neat and will speed things up I'm sure! Cheers Gidon

If you still have any left - would like one! Many thanks Gidon

And here it is ... The inside is recycled bed slats from one of my children's cot! The front is Walnut and the enclosure is Ash - all scraps. Spray varnish, rubbed out with paste wax. I find making small stuff more difficult! Inside - used Incra fence on router table to cut housing...

Different types of coffee - depends whether you like espresso or not! I do and also have a Gaggia manual machine which was great but in a shop is far too much faff - especially making for customers. Plus to get the results I get from the Nespresso I'd need freshly ground coffee. Ground...

Thanks that's very helpful Mike. Noggsy - that looks great! I'll try and post my efforts. Using up scraps from an old children's cot - so unlikely to be quick! Cheers Gidon

No way - scoured the web trying to find dimensions! Even looked at the Nespresso patents! But didn't find that. That will probably do - if anyone has a capsule to hand would quite like the lip dimension too - although haven't worked out what I'm trying to do yet! Many thanks Paul. Gidon

I wanted to make a quick drawer to hold Nespresso capsules, with the machine on top. Stupidly the machine and capsules are at work so don't have the exact dimensions of the capsules. Would anyone be so kind as to measure the exact dimensions of a capsule? You can have a free coffee when you...

Hi all I have a retail shop with the back room where we do the computer repairs. Over the last 5 years I've used old desks etc but I need to sort this properly. I was thinking of 19mm birch ply running all around. I'm sure I could hack something together but a couple of questions if anyone can...

Glad useful Peter. Think they quoted 5 days ordered direct from Festool but arrived quicker IIRC. Very handy these online Festool suppliers - even if not in stock only a few days for every spare part Festool have! Cheers Gidon

Hi JJ1 I have tried a few methods. On the off chance you have an Incra fence - I made this one and made perfectly aligned holes with a router which I described here: http://festoolownersgroup.com/festool-j ... -mft-holes If you're only going to use if for clamping etc and not for square...

Thanks Bob - might try and make one when I get a chance and test its benefits - I have a old router plate I could hack! Gidon

Am interested - why is the Domiplate so popular? It's pretty simple setting the fence and mine stays put. Are there issues with some people's fences slipping or is there another reason for its popularity? Cheers Gidon

I bought a lot of Festool stuff for building furniture for my new shop a few years ago - with the intent of selling them. But haven't! And I have recently added more to the collection. But that's by the by. Don't forget you need a good vac with the Domino too. I'd recommend the Festool Midi...

Got the PDC :). Will try and post a review at some stage comparing the CXS, 14.4 Dewalt and PDC. Sad how much I enjoyed playing with it last night! Beautifully balanced and incredibly powerful - I've yet to challenge it yet ... Loving the electronic torque control. Gidon

Tried the Screwfix Goldscrew Plus screws - very similar to Spax and much cheaper. I've stuck with the cheapest screwfix twinthread screws for years and didn't realise just how much more torque they take to drive. Peter - has to be 18v PDC and very good reason for that: justification to get the...

Just a quick update: Yes the drill is underpowered compared to my Dewalt, but for screwdriving I'm reaching for it every time! The trouble is I've now persuaded myself that I really need the 18V PDC to go with it ;)! I also got some Spax screws which I have tried before but was put off by...
