Yea you are bang on with that. I have the exact same straight edge and it's great. Also got a set or feeler gauges which are a great help too :)

Hi. I sent you a pm with my email. That's very kind off you. Let us know how you get on. Cheers Rob

Hi. I got it in the end yes. It's a great machine but by god the setting procedure could be easier. I think I lost some hair in the process lol. I left it the best I could get in the end as I have built my own workshop and now building benches. The pt is still in my garage as I can't get it into...

Thanks for the input. I think ive seen this channel before and heard good things so will definetly give it a look. I also found a keyboard shortcut pdf which I think ill print out and keep next to me when needed. Seems like it will come in handy. Thanks again

I lilke your thinking. Defintetly a good approach to learning I would say. And yes your rite im hoping once I get back into it again it all starts coming back to me lol. Thanks for the input

I designed my own workshop from the ground up using sketchup. Since its been built though I have completely forgot how to use it near enough. Before I start with the same couple of videos on youtube I used to learn it previously (very loosly i may add lol) are there any good books or youtube...

Thanks for the input. Any good sources you know off for pvc pipe and fittings? Thanks

This is good to know. I was wondering about this and did think the same tbh. But thanks for clarifying this

This is a nice idea. Im just wondering if if you could find standard 100mm to fit wood working machinery. Thanks for the advice

Thanks for the input. Yes this system will be mainly for my bigger machines. Like you I have festool extractor for my kapex saw and other small power tools. You say you have 45 degree elbows. Would joining two 45 to make 90 work as well do you reckon?

Thanks for the information. Do you reckon it would still be worth doing then and just making sure to keep to as much smooth pipe as possible?

Hey. Im wanting to make a ducting system through my small shop to save having to have trailing hoses. Its only a small shop 5.5m x 3.2m I have a few questions that I would like to know as I dont fully understand all things air flow etc. My questions are: * What is the best material to use for...

I am wanting to start desiging and building a flip top mitre saw bench to house my mitre saw and have it flip away under the bench when not in use. Ive watched quite a few videos on how to make these. What I would like to know though is has anyone got any good ideas or tips that I should throw...

Im wanting to install a tv at some point in the workshop. I know this may cause some splitting oppinions as it could be seen as a distraction but those asside I just wanted to see if its safe to put one in there. I will be having a cyclone extractor hooked up to all my big machines with a shop...

Sorry im not sure what you mean missed breather membrane. I have put kingspan breathebale membrane on the outside walls and then battens with cladding fixed to them. I am boarding the walls with 11mm osb on the inside and was just talking about using chipboard for pattress boards underneath so...

I have access to a couple of unwanted IKEA wardrobes that I was thinking about sizing down to use as pattress boards. It's the usual chipboard with parts ranging from 15 to 20mm thick. I know the standard is to use ply or osb but would there be any problem using these or would they be too prone...

@Sheptonphil mine is 5.2x3.1m so a bit smaller but I know I can make it work. My plan is to build a bench with draws at one short end wall then build a outfield table/assembly table to run behind my cabinet saw. Im hopefully going to integrate two flip top mechanisms in it to accomdate my mitre...

In your case I agree with you. I would just buy the extra boards but mine is a floating floor consisting of dpm - 100mm concrete base - dpm - 50mm celotex - vapour barrier - 22mm chipboard t&g - 7mm pvc interlocking floor tiles so luckily no joists to have to sit joints on

For my last three full boards with three cut pieces at the ends I ended up just cutting each end at 90 and gluing up with a buttt joint and leaving wedged tight for 24 hours. Seems to be solid for me now and im putting 7mm pvc interlocking tiles down on top so should be ok. If there is any...

Yes I was thinking using ply as I had heard its a greater pull out strength. I have a few offcuts of 22mm chipboard flooring I was going to chuck in just to use up. Is the pull out strength any good on that or should I not use them. I found alot of 9mm ply offcut boards on fb marketplace. If I...
