    What did you do in your workshop today ?

    I finally managed to have a play on my lathe today. (I don't get to use it very often lately). Also managed to damage my mitre saw. clamping a piece that was too small caused a kick back resulting in the clamp hole breaking :( Any suggestions on how to fix it? or should I just give up now...

    Workshop sketchup review please

    Hi all Thanks for your feedback. Adam: I was thinking about using either feather board or another cladding for the external and build the frame from CLS timber. Do you advise against this and using treated timber throughout? Haggis I like the look of your build. Thanks
