I think record power do a guide attachment that fits the BS300e saw that enables you to use thin blades like that. Might be worth a look.

Hi Peter, can I buy the 1mt Jacob’s Chuck please? Cheers. Rich

I’d be interested in the letter carving book, if you would be willing to sell it singly please!

If you are nearby or passing it, it’d be well worth popping in to Yandles. The self selection timber and bowl blanks are extensive. If you just want different little scraps to practice on there are two big bins with bits for a couple of quid.

I don’t know if I didn’t explain that very well when I posted that, I’m edge jointing, I.e. long grain to long grain the Sapele boards to make the seat board. Do you mean a butt joint involving end grain? A lot of the books on the chairs e.g. Moser, Dunbar and Hill have some of the seat boards...

Milled down the Sapele for a Windsor seat. Edge joined it, nice bit of planing by hand, took my time. Clamped it up and all looked good. Next day popped the template on and sawed out the shape, feeling all good about it as it was looking nice. Middle glue joint fails as soon as I get in on the...

If I’m honest, they aren’t too bad. The kitchen units are of a decent standard, but the appliances they supply with the kitchen are a bit poo!

I’ll put in another vote for Famag. I can’t afford a full set yet, but the ones I have are great.

I have that Record Power drill, it’s a nice little drill. I wouldn’t use it for ultra precision engineering, but for general woodworking, joinery and chair making I’ve found it really capable. I can totally recommend Yandles, they are really helpful, great customer service etc… all round great...

This 100% love my pro edge

Popped down to Yandles to get some bits for a chair build. Didn’t realise that they had 20% off self selection timber, finished, abrasives, glue and books - winnner! Think it’s all this weekend. Thought I’d share on here as they had some pretty good value wood in, glad I took the credit card.

Wentin fasteners - Fasteners, Fixings, Screws & Tools | Wentin Fasteners Given them a ring a few times and they have a colossal stock of all different sizes and threads. Reasonably priced too. Winner.

I’ve got the ubiquitous Makita site radio in my workshop. My other Pure dab started to play up because of the dust 😮. Very happy with the site radio.

I’ve got that grinder and the slow speed record one I’m looking at parting with in the next week or so. If you are interested, I’m in Wiltshire, not far from Bath.

This! The RP blade that comes with the saw is poo at best. I thought I’d bought a faulty saw when I got mine, but changed totally with a tuff saws.
