I have the same pattern table (different branding). I get on OK with the split fence. One small thing that helps is to file a small chamfer on the edge of the outfence. I used to get the workpiece catching on the leading edge. I found the fine adjusters OK to use by backing off and winding...

Thanks SunnyBob, I have left a message on Folksy. regards, Ike

...Frugal, from Dursley, Glos. I sold him an Inca Combi back in 2009. Can anybody help me contact him? I have unearthed a couple of accessories that I would ideally like to return to the machine in question as they seem quite rare now. I have a long box spanner for the sawblade nut, and a...

Hi, I recently acquired a kity 629 spindle moulder with sliding table, and all the accesories. Having looked at it more closely on delivery, i notice thre is a short slot in the top of the spindle. Should tooling be mounted with a special tab washer under the main bevelled holddown washer...

If it's the TR12, mine is from 1980 and still going strong.

I once bought from Rutlands - never again. "In stock this week" was the answer given periodically for over two months. Meanwhile they helped themselves PDQ courtesy of my credit card. No company needs to do this, and an honest, well managed company wouldn't dream of it. The b*****ds still...

£150 per man day is a competitive rate. Doubt they charge by the hour - probably half day min for smaller jobs.

Panasonic have really got their s**t together with the compact Lumix range. Worth a look IMO.

Paranoia is still very much alive and kicking! I have found it fascinating, in part marvelling at what technology can create compared to a few short years ago. One useful aspect I think, is being able to see (or not) a business or somewhere where you may be buying unseen, or maybe have to...

Relying on an empty account to prevent DD payment won't help you unfortunately, as you will then incur bank charges! And you won't be able to close your account unless the balance is settled first! DD is a very good system, but always check the small print with a service provider and avoid CPA...

It is absolutely the case you can stop a direct debit by cancelling the instruction, and the other party will not be able to take money. However, even if you do it online (which is the easiest and simplest way) it must be at least 4 days before the DD is due to be taken. But beware, if in the...

I haven't found Soda Crystals to be very effective. An empty 'boil' wash with a normal amount of detergent however, seems to work well.

Andy, Good luck with that and if you decide on ISE, please spread the word. Anything that is a poke in the crutch of the likes of DSG et al, is a good thing. They seem to employ mainly spotty know-nothing oiks who don't give a tinkers cuss what you buy except preferably with an extended...

Andy, ASKO don't sell in the UK. They stopped about 10 years ago. ISE (Independent Service Engineers) with their inside knowledge saw the business opportunity to re-introduce a high quality product so specified their own version of ASKO's machine for their top-of-the-range model. I'd be...
