    Locking nut to stud - superglue or studlock?

    Great thanks Jason. I like the pin method too. I know I've asked this before - but looking up an old thread - I'm still not sure what torch I would need for silver soldering? Would this give me everything to get started: http://www.toolstation.com/search.html?searchstr=67849...

    Locking nut to stud - superglue or studlock?

    Hi What's the best way of locking a nut to some studding - it's a M8 stud and nut. I can't lock it with another nut. Or is there something better? I don't have any welding equipment (still). Thanks Gidon

    Software - is this legal?

    This is unbelievable - frugal's right - how this bloke has 100% feedback and is still going strong is a joke. Cheers Gidon

    Buying my first plane

    Another vote for the Veritas LA Jack - it's such a useful plane. Another option for less money is a top quality block plane like the LN 60 1/2: http://www.classichandtools.com/acatalo ... lanes.html This was the first quality tool I bought and it was a revelation. Some people say you don't need...

    "Routing" cast iron.

    I'm going to anyway ;). Only because I've used mine - an Xtreme Xtension in an Elu 177 and it works perfectly (as it does in my current Trend T11). Plus makes changing bits a doddle. A cheap extender in a cheap router gives extenders a bad press - honest this one works very well in decent...

    Spraying

    Mike I'm no expert on this but if you're using water based finishes does it matter if there's some water in the airline? There's unlikely to be much if you drain your machine reguarly. I don't have any sort of filter and seem to get decent results. On nail guns I add, when I remember, a drop of...

    Fastest way to flatten chisesl I've found

    Is DC's 3rd book a collection of articles from publications or is it written as a book? By the way DC isn't the first person to suggest a simple shooting board using a bench hook and your bench. It's not that outrageous although personally I'd prefer to have a dedicated shooting board. Cheers...

    Dedicated mortiser + router table or router jig?

    Woodchip - try getting one of those Japanese mortising chisels Axminster sell (or a Clico one if you're feeling really flush). It will make the world of difference. Si - it's hard to answer this one. I bought a morticer when I made my oak front door and it was really useful for this. I don't...

    besseytools.co.uk

    David What clamps are you after? DM-tools often have good prices - for instance 1m K-bodies are cheaper there than besseytools.co.uk, xpress, axminster etc with a quick check. Cheers Gidon

    your workshop - whats the best lighting?

    I have a main fluorescent tube, plus two standard ceiling mounted 100w bulbs plus an angle poise lamp plus a clip on lamp plus a window and glass door. Still not enough light. When I ever get round to my new workshop think I'd go for lots of fluorescent tubes - for the reasons you give. Cheers...

    Colour Laserjet? Printer Recommendations.....Help?

    Hi Adam I have a Samsung CLP-510N colour laser printer - it's good - has duplex unit built in (really worth it in my opinion) and network port, plus it's very quick in black and white which is what I use it for most of all. But it's massive and I almost had a heart attack when I looked to...

    Flat Screen Telly...recommendations?

    Rob - as Argee says handy for editing things out. For example I have Sky+ - I can easily copy Life in Cold Bloods say all across to the HDD recorder. So it doesn't clog up my Sky+ blox - then if I wanted, archive them onto DVD. Or copy my miniDV footage across to the HDD and then make a DVD for...
