    13amp table saw?

    Thank you all for your replies. I think I worded it poorly when I said my workshop wasn't capable as to be honest I don't know if it is, what I meant was it wasn't set up. I think I will look into getting a 16 amp socket installed as like Ali said it will open up more possibilities. It's good to...

    Someone would like me to make them some drawers to go underneath their TV, the only thing is they want to drawer width to be 1.4 meters and to have push to open runners so there are no handles. For me these seem like extremely wide drawers and not something I have even considered doing before...

    Advice needed with changing the drive belt on a Elu TGS172.

    I've managed to get it on. Turns out the pulley shaft also screws on as well as has a bolt holding it in place. So I took the front pulley shaft off by locking it with a spanner on the side where the saw blade sits then unscrewing it by covering it in a cloth so I didn't damage the teeth and...

    Advice needed with changing the drive belt on a Elu TGS172.

    I have tried to remove 56 and 74 but they are holding on very well and I worry about damaging them. I will definitely try warming the belt to see if that helps. Thank you for the help :) .

    Advice needed with changing the drive belt on a Elu TGS172.

    Yes that's the one. The belt is number 55 towards the top right of the second picture, although they seem to have cut half of it off in the picture. It loops around number 56 and 74 and I am really struggling to get it on.

    Advice needed with changing the drive belt on a Elu TGS172.

    I have a Elu TGS 172 combination saw and when I was using it yesterday the drive belt snapped. I have a spare but can't get it on as it's too tight, I actually already broke one spare when trying to feed it on. I can't see anything I can loosen on the actual machine to get it on. So I was...
