Had a change of mind! Hasn't arrived yet (due today) but negatives are starting to mount up (I know it's cheap but...) Keep looking at the max depth of cut :( Track incompatability :( etc. etc. I'll be banging it in for return without opening :roll: Decided to go with this...

Hey Setch many thanks, will do

Hi Setch - some good pics (bottom two) of the track here.... https://www.amazon.co.uk/VonHaus-Circul ... plunge+saw

....https://www.vonhaus.com/vh_en/plunge-saw (Yeah I know it's probably pushing the 'buy dung, get dung' envelope but I have the dilemma of needing one, but only quite rarely!) If you have one (go on...admit it!) what the hell are the dimensions of that track??? (think it's 100mm wide) I...

What a wonderful forum this is! Don't think I've ever come across such helpful and generous people (but then again I don't get out much ;)) From all that's been said I don't think I'll go far wrong with a 2.6M section of 50mmx25mmx3mm......legs bolted either end (can't weld it up AND get it in...

Thanks fellas (apologies if any of you are ladies!).....the difficulties in creating an arc (in the steel) are beyond my ken I'm afraid (heating it would lose it's temper....and probably mine as well) but it's a great idea and one that would surely work. The laminate ply also has...

Not sure I get your meaning here Echo.....could you expand on this? Many thanks for the advice guys!!

Thanks Mike (you're most probably right about the 2x1) In your last statement do you mean a steel support that angles back from the mid section to the wall? I have me knees to consider! ;) Cheers

.....does anyone know if a 2.6 metre 50mmx50mmx3mm steel box section will sag in the middle (under moderate pressure)? I should explain....I'm gonna install a 3 metre wide (I know, too much stuff) by 800mm deep PC desk/bench made from two pieces of high density (?) 1.5Mx800mmx25mm chipboard...

Hard to understand why there aren't a lot more reviews/user experiences out there???...... http://www.makitauk.com/pam/custom/file ... Review.pdf

Hey thanks Tugalis....yup, saw those links already but thx anyway! Just recently bought a Record Power bench grinder for sharpening some woodturning chisels...and well....I hope I don't sound too 'picky' but it don't blow my socks off as such :( Sure it does the job but there was a little...

Nobody seems to have any knowledge of that Makita? On spec it beats the Axminster saw....rack and pinion table adjustment, more powerful motor, integrated wheel kit on stand to name a few.....it looks a really nice saw for the price (oh, and it's £40 cheaper). I mostly cut 10 -25mm softwood...

No problem m8.....I'm jealous!

Avoid like the plague! Had three last year...they all went back. Complete and utter rubbish (look elsewhere on this forum)....rubbish like this should be illegal. I'm sorry but I also think your expectations regarding depth of cut plus re-sawing are wildly over ambitious :( Hope this isn't too late.

Woodfarmer has my sympathy!! I too made the grave mistake of purchasing (or trying to purchase) a 'Fox' F28-186 bandsaw (approx. £300) from Poolewood early last year. Never again! I was forced to reject the three that were delivered....they were absolute rubbish. Everything from broken parts to...

P.S. forgot to say, that usual online auction site never seems to throw up anything within a hundred miles of me, and I've looked believe me!!

......yup....which bandsaw should I buy?? I've scoured t'internet (and perused the relevant forum sub sections here and elsewhere) and am still unsure :( I won't bore you with the details, but after a mentally scarring experience this time last year with a brand named after the objective of...

Hi all, first post so be gentle! I've just bought a Tonino Lamborghini Router 1/4in and 1/2in - 240v (so should be fast ;)) to put an ogee profile on the inner edge of the mdf panels that will be glued atop of my kitchen cupboard doors. Trouble is, all the tables I've found so far...
