How did I miss that! Thanks, now I'll have to go!

I'm tempted - but looking at the list of exhibitors, Bessey won't be there. Seeing as I only every end of buying some clamps no point me going ;)!

A bit late to the conversation but I have the TEC 810 for woodworking and the low melt TEC 305 for craft stuff with the children. Both great glue guns and would also recommend the service from gluegunsdirect. Cheers Gidon

That's a blast from the past! That review original post and review is 12 years old! Glad it is still useful though. Cheers Gidon

Ok thanks! Not too far so will take a look.

PM sent!

Did anyone go today? Was it worth it? May pop along tomorrow am. Was Festool's representation decent ;)? Cheers Gidon

I use Chestnut melamine lacquer - which sprays well. If it's a small job, could you use some cans of spray lacquer? Either way you can just build up as many coats as you need. Cheers Gidon

I have a Tormek and that's normal for the stone grader to get a hollow. Check out the Tormek videos with Jeff Farris like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lJHxoQWO8U Cheers Gidon

http://toolfair.info Hadn't heard of this - I'll try and go ...

The one linked to is smaller than an MFT/3 top - but still a useful size - and has the perfectly machined grid of holes.

I think it's a clever system and would come into its own if you wanted to make lots of tables with these holes. But for a one off it's quite expensive and looks quite a faff to me when you can get a ready made MFT top for less than half the price (and that uncludes the quality bit of MDF :))...

I have one of chippy1970's - I've never used it apart from a test cut when I got it! He charged £25 - happy to sell for £20 inc postage. Please PM me if you're interested. Cheers Gidon

Still - thanks for the info - I didn't even know I could order through Amazon.de - so will be checking out in future. Cheers Gidon

How is it free delivery - seems to add postage on for me - even with a prime account? Thanks.
