    Can someone in the US do me a favour ;)

    Thanks Chris - the direct link wouldn't work - didn't think of your trick ;). I can't resist giving this a try - I'm guessing it's going to be a lot coarser than 3u to start off with but will see. Paul will happily let you know how I get on. Thanks Emyr - I think I'm sorted but I'm going to...

    Can someone in the US do me a favour ;)

    I'm after one of these: The D8EE Extra Extra fine DMT stone here. I can't find them in the UK and the price is the US is great! I would of course reimburse all your costs ++. Please drop me a PM if it's a possibility. Many thanks Gidon

    Melamine for facing a router table top :?:

    Thing is you can get a 10 x 4 foot sheet of laminate for that price!! Still understand it's easier to walk into B&Q ... Toby I got some from Jewsons - they delivered it too rolled up. It's handy to have for lots of things. Cheers Gidon

    SCHEPPACH Hms 260 10 inch Planer / Thicknesser

    Hi Welcome. I've scanned the setup notes which are probably more helpful: HERE If you still need something from the manual I have that somewhere too (but not scanned in). Cheers Gidon

    Bench Chisels... The best ones are..........

    Well my Footprint ones hold an edge better than the AI chisels I had (and I tried to sets) - but no option for Footprint on Dan's list ;)! If I had the money it'd be the LN's - 'cos they look nice and they are bound to be good. However I can't bring myself (for the moment anyway) to spend that...

    PK200 Table Saw Accident

    This sounds very nasty and not something I quite understand to be honest. So thanks for the warning and hope it heals quickly. Cheers Gidon

    Video to DVD

    Waka You don't really need one - if you have a VHS player connect it via scart to the input of the DVD recorder. Hit play on the tape and record on the DVD recorder. The reason I say those things aren't really worth it is what do you do with it once you've converted all your video tapes? The...

    glueing to melamine

    tsb - agree with Karl - screw from inside. Prolly through some of the shelving holes. That's how all the oak veneered fascia panels are fixed in my Ikea kitchen. Cheers Gidon

    Have you found the BBC Iplayer?

    ITV and Channel 4 also offer this service - can be handy. My annoyance is I have a BT Vision box which should be able to play this catch up TV through my TV (since it's hooked up to the broadband router). But there's limited availability through it and a lot of stuff is charged even though it's...

    Triton's still available. Want one?

    Well I couldn't resist Richard's kind offer - I know another 1/2" router will come in handy and at that price have to admit it's a bargain! Richard you're a gentleman and a scholar! Thanks again, Gidon

    Adobe Acrobat - alternatives?

    OK Tim this is what you want - it costs a tenner but could be worth it for you: http://www.pdfill.com/ It opens and lets you edit encrypted files too which as someone pointed out a lot of the PDFs you're filling in will be. FWIW I just bought it myself and I don't have loads of immigration forms...

    Adobe Acrobat - alternatives?

    Tim An addition to my earlier post. One other free option which I have tried before (but depends how much time you have!) is PDFedit. This is a completely free FULL PDF editor (aka Acrobat Professional). But to run it under Windows you need Cygwin. It's pretty straightforward to install if you...

    Adobe Acrobat - alternatives?

    Hi Tim I'm not aware of a free editing program. And beware of even the cheaper paid for programs - some only allow you to add notes bookmarks etc - not even text. However if you have Photoshop (I'm using Photoshop Elements 5) - it will let you open PDF files, add whatever you like and save them...

    cannon digi camera

    Sony takes the mickey - my camcorder has started playing up - you have to send it straight to Sony for repair for a fixed repair cost of £170!!!! Who in their right mind is going to pay that? The equivalent model is now £119 from Amazon. Even the woman from Sony said it's not worth it! It's...
