Any takers at £225?

[img]For sale is my Axminster HBS350N hobby bandsaw. I’ve had the saw for about 5 years and must have turned it on 10 times, I bought it thinking woodwork would become a hobby but turned into a career and it never gets used on the type of work I do. It is in excellent condition, no rust on the...

Thanks very much for all your replies guys, very interesting reading and I’ll be sure to take your advice on board once the project starts. I’ve got the job booked in for the back end of this year, I’ll be sure to report back and let you know how I’m getting on and any design changes I make!

Thanks for all the replies, I've been trying to find the original sketchup file from when I first drew it out but no luck, would have been nice to refer to all the dimensions. I did talk to the customer briefly about the size of the table for 8 people and they basically said it would be once in...

Thanks for the reply Mike, much appreciated! You're correct the idea behind the 6' diameter is to seat 8 people, I was worried about warping, tipping etc etc on 6' so I'm hesitant to make it any bigger. Would you think it needs to be vastly bigger to get the chairs under fully or will another...

Hello, I've been commissioned to make a solid Oak pedestal table for a customer of mine but I have a few things I'm not sure of. My usual line of work usually involves man made boards and the odd bit of softwood so a solid oak table is a bit out of my comfort zone and also my work normally...

Got your PM Sam, I'll call you soon. If I'm being honest guys if it is iroko I wouldn't know the difference and I'm almost positive my customer won't. Its advertised as teak, this is the link https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00 ... S4ZXB7DV30 Cheers, Andy.

Thank you for getting back to me Sam, the 7" x 36" x 1" would be absolutely perfect! if you could lop it in half making two pieces 7" x 18" x 1" that should make the postage a little cheaper. Just get back to me whenever you can mate there no rush you've obviously got a lot on your plate...

Thanks for all your replies fellas. If you can dig out what I need Sam I'd rather give you the money than some chancer on eBay, I'll look forward to hearing from you. Cheers, Andy.

Hello, I've got a job to do for a customer which originally required me to make a lutyens style garden bench from solid teak with a round plaque on the back with the customers design cut in. Sounded good at first until I researched how much teak cost and had to have a lie down to get over the...

Thanks for your help guys, much appreciated.

Hello, I've been asked to replicate some wood paneling in a customers snooker room but I'm unsure of the type of verneered board that's been used, does anybody know what it might be? Any helps appreciated, cheers. (Sorry for the quality of the pictures, the top two are without flash and the...

I mainly use PVA 502, I buy it 5 litres at a time from tool station for about £13 and I've never had a problem. I used to use titebond and I did like it until read somewhere it was just normal PVA with a yellow dye in. I don't think that's strictly true there's probobly more to it than that but...

Cheers, I'm in Great Lever. Funny this thread should pop back up, I'm round at the same customers at the moment doing another job. The wardrobes are all painted now and look great, I'll take some pics and post them up if I get chance.
