Today I bought a square of Velcro from Timberman so I can abolish those damn sticky sanding discs.

Snap :)

My Velcro pad arrived from Charnwood.

Just waiting for my belt/disc sander to arrive from Warco
 
I bought one of these today as I'm sick of freezing my ***(ets) off in the garage. I also got a door sealing strip to keep the damn heat in too. 8)

Birthday present from the kids. Cuts beautifully and leaves a finish you couldn't obtain with sanding. Perfect for those little finishing jobs. From Ebay, as good as new. Did someone on here sell it by any chance?

Did you get that at £22 from Home bargains. (hammer) :?:
 
Heater was 50 quid from Screwfix, door seal was £16. It would cost me 25 quid to get to a Home bargain from where I live. :-D
 
As noted in the parallel clamp thread, I bought 8 of these;



and 8 of these



and 2 of these



The Revo's are KR100's and the TG's are 200/80's. First Bessey's but not my last based on the build quality.

I got the timers for glue ups.

Has it arrived yet? Was looking at them online today and they do seem a good buy, but wondered if you had put it through its paces yet?

I'm waiting to get a box to send my TS200 back! The blade and riving knife are badly aligned and as such it makes cutting (especially ripping) very difficult as the wood wants to stop when it reaches the riving knife.

This arrived today

Excellent; far superior to similar bought from Lidl recently -- and a decent price :wink: :) :)
 
Not sure if this counts as a tool:

Bought these after seeing them mentioned recently on a forum thread.
They do fit over my glasses and are reasonably comfortable so I can wear them for hours rather than minutes. My glasses do come off with them but that's a mild inconvenience. don't think they would work with a mask. £10 on ebay, should have got a couple of spares.
 
got this today!



Hazlewood and dent no4 fly press comes with some custom made tooling and sturdy base, not bad for a ton!

also has both balls, which isn't always the case, the guy was less than a mile away so all in all very happy!

That's very nice! I'm envious of the tooling especially , I've made some for my No. 4, but it's still smeared in packing grease and wrapped in a tarp waiting for me to save up to heat treat the punch and die.
 
well the tooling is some what specific to strange jobs so not that useful, but i have a bridgeport mill and super 7nso should find some uses for it!

A Scrollsaw. The new Axminster Trade Ex16 that replicates the Excalibur with addition of an NVR switch for schools.

I have done an initial review in the Scrollsaw section if anyone is interested. Very pleased with it.

Nearly purchased a Trend T4 router with a laod of extras from ITS as they have a decent price on it, but then read the reviews on Axminster.... oh my, glad I waited to have a read first :lol: :(
 
My most recent purchase was a Stanley Sweetheart jack plane...

hmmm...mine does this.

I thought it was just my technique...I'm going to have to take the knife out to take a look at it.
