    One-jab efficacy questions

    Vaccine is the “cure” for Covid-19 just as vaccinations was the way to deal with polio, diphtheria and flu etc. As my mum used to say “Prevention is better than Cure”

    Router Woes

    Its a bit more cash to spend but you could invest in an aluminium plate to replace the plastic one. UJK 10mm Aluminium Router Table Insert. I have the folding table and I added the plate and the better fence and it works well.

    UJK Universal Dovetail Jig

    I have the earlier UJK model. It looks as though this new one has a few tweaks and additions. I’ve been very happy with mine.

    Bench Dogs Very Tight

    Maybe. Of course, the main reason Axminster launched the reamer, as I understand it was to deal with situations where MFT tops swell or the holes get a bit furry! I have a personal preference for the UJK stuff.

    One-jab efficacy questions

    Domino Jointers Are they really worth it, or just a gimic

    That is exactly my position. I bought the Makita Biscuit jointer first but then rapidly followed with the DF500. Wouldn't do without either.

    Bandsaw mitre fence problem

    I have the same bandsaw but I use Axminsters more expensive UJK Fence. It does in my view, justify the extra cost.https://www.axminstertools.com/ujk-technology-precision-mitre-gauge-and-fence-104579

    Router bit storage - inserts required to stop rust?

    I keep mine in a Systainer fitted with a foam drilled base - I think I got the base from Amazon or eBay.

    I don't think they would believe it nowadays?

    I remember getting two black eyes, a bust lip, broken tooth and a Stanley knife cut across my scalp in 1972. I was on a train going home from a cinema with my girlfriend. A bunch of skinhead football hooligans ran amok on the train. Several people were badly injured before the police arrived...

    Timber near Manchester?

    Another thumbs up for Tools and Timber from me. Excellent quality and good service. Their delivery charges are also reasonable if (when it’s possible) you don’t want to visit.

    Apron or Dustcoat?

    Veritas Apron most of the time. It’s very robust cotton with sensible click fixings rather than having to tie the strings behind my back. Right number of useful pockets.
