Unlikely, if you just want to make a 6mm groove you can get blades with a 6mm kerf such as this one...

Nothing to add really except I just bought a Metabo 125mm complete with case for 40 quid on Amazon, which is a good deal and I thought worth mentioning.

I have done all types of fishing over the years, general coarse fishing, match fishing, fly fishing, beach fishing but through all those times I also carp fished and still do, don't go as much now but still have a couple of trips to France a year and the odd day locally.

You need to shop around a bit mate, 18mm mrmdf is £70 +vat on there but only £43 +vat at Selco and I can get it cheaper than that at a local merchant.

It will be too expensive - same as everything else they sell...

Something similar to undergroundhunter - I have a katsu, it's ok and very good for the price paid I suppose but definitely not in the same league as my Makita 18v trim router, that is an absolute pleasure to use every time I pick it up, I also have the Bosch GKF600 and can't remember the last...

Looking for cheap suppliers for collated 1st fix nails, not a big user, usually buy between 1-3 boxes at a time - can anybody help with this please?

I have been asked to build some wardrobes for somebody with two full height sliding doors that run in the same track. They want wardrobes made as three equal sections (of around 750mm each) with the centre section being drawers and open shelving and the two side sections having a sliding door...

I questioned the lower discount thing recently and was told that the discount structure has been changed, apparently the days of quotes stating 70%+ discount are over as they have reduced list prices and discounts to everybody and prices will be the same as with the massive discounts and often...

Use both original and cheapy batteries on my Blue Bosch and Makita stuff and can't say I have noticed any real difference.

I have both of them - both are good routers but I think the Makita is the better of the two personally, it seems smoother and results are more accurate to my eyes.

Looking to add a router table element to my work bench - is it necessary to have an insert plate? if I just mount the router straight under the table what would an insert plate add? Going to be getting a Triton TRA001 for it if that has any relevance.
