    Axminster Trade Series MJ12-1600 Panel Saw

    That looks like a really quality machine. Will you be using it for any hardwood work, like you would a normal saw bench? I'm awaiting my commission from Axminsters, I'm sure Richard will sort it out!

    Email to SMS

    I haven't read all the responses but heres what I think you need to know. On your android phone you have a gmail account, which will receive gmail. You can set it up to receive other emails from other accounts but thats not what I do. You will also have a pre-installed app called email. You set...

    Email to SMS

    Why not just setup the email account on your phone - if you still have a smartphone that is? Seems around about type of way to do it. Although I just realize the two threads may be connected, your wifi etc isn't working on your phone.

    Beech worktop severely warped - Help!?

    Its nothing to do with excessive humidity or temperature, nothing out of the ordinary. It doesn't matter if its not supported length ways. I'm sure it will come back, I often have these big pine boards which warp in the workshop when they are stacked up, but once they come out and are cut to...

    Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 phone - unreliable

    Samsung supply both the memory and processes for iPhones and iPads, so not really the brand change you'd hope for. I'm afraid the real truth is that the Ace is a budget phone and you get what you pay for!

    CD player woes

    I think the gap feature is the player not the disc. As in my car you can adjust this or remove it completely. I'm not 100% thou?

    Zebrano Tearout

    +1 for a scraper, either cabinet one or plane. Alternatively you could glue it all up and find someone with a wide belt sander to polish it up for you.

    American type table saw...

    Yeah I agree with that, there are still ways to hurt yourself it doesn't protect against. But still be nice to have it just encase!

    American type table saw...

    The only saw I'd import is the Sawstop. There is no reason to import anything else from the states table saw wise.

    Axminster Trade Series MJ12-1600 Panel Saw

    Np I'm happy to take some commission from the sale in thanks!! It looks like a top machine, I've always said I'd never upgrade my SIP01332 but I would for this machine.

    Axminster Trade Series MJ12-1600 Panel Saw

    You are mis-reading: That means its 1 phase, it will run on 240v although you may need a 16amp supply and plug. Sometimes you can get away with a standard plug sometimes not. The actual motor is 3hp.

    Clean your tools

    Nope, I bought a lovely old rusty wadkin planer. What sold it for me was that the person had been using it.

    Dust extractor tripping electrics

    I used to have a similar problem, had to make sure the saw was on first then the extractor for me so it didn't blow the table saw fuse. I had my sparky friend come and look at it and he said the problem was that the workshop electrics are just on a radial spur, not a ring. So with each spur you...

    Elu MOF 96 and DW 625 Dust extraction kits

    You'll be fine with that Vac cheerup, its on of those odd crossover type vacs that does both a 100mm hose and a powertool hose. I used to have a Record type extractor like it, was good on power tools but rubbish on a 100mm hose. This is what you need to do as shown on the axy site: I would...

    Snooker cue project

    Market Harbour is not far from me and I usually use Good Timber: http://www.goodtimber.com/ They will plane and thickness the ash for you as well if you don't have the kit to do it. I think there are some smaller timber yards on your side of Northampton but I'm not sure.
