    Soft Plastic Press for recycling

    Hi there, Looking for suggestions to make a simple press for soft plastic bags which accumulate and I'd like to be able to compress them to take for recycling. The simpler the better for me. Thanks so much for any suggestions. Oh.....and a Happy New Year to one and all : )

    Complete the phrase "I'm sweating like...."

    I'm sweating like the prince of porkies...........that prince among pigs - andrew. Which means I'm not sweating at all, That is, if you believe the drivel this son of the queen spouts forth. I honestly admire the queen and feel so sorry for her having a son who can't sweat and who can be relied...

    Magnifying Light

    Could you please give me your recommendations for a really good light/lamp to use when cutting out intricate patterns on a scroll saw? I've used a visor and a Fancii LED Illuminated Hands Free Head Magnifier but feel like I would benefit from a light that either clamps to a table or is on a...

    Prevent Glue Syringe from clogging

    I have used a glue syringe on several occasions and really love how it can apply a tiny bead to wherever I need it. However, unless very careful, the needle can easily get clogged with glue that has dried and it takes a lot of work to unclog it. I've searched everywhere hoping to find a DIY...

    Which Fuse ?

    Hi Cjdinc Actually, I didn't buy mine from Dictum, I bought it from Scies Miniatures Sarl in Switzerland and, to be honest, they were terrible. I think I was maybe the first private individual they had dealt with and it was a very painful 2 months. I think I'd likely have been better to go...

    Donating tools

    Wondered if anyone knew of an organisation where one could donate some or all of the tools one has accumulated over the years, when it's time to go to that woodshop in the sky? I've no intention of going there any time soon, just wanted to be prepared - like a good boy scout. I was hoping...

    Which Fuse ?

    Thanks all for your invaluable thoughts on this, if not a wee bit con-fuse-ing, to say the least : ) I think I opened the proverbial can of worms but, it just shows what a diverse group of minds we have here on this forum.
