I would really be careful with the combination machines, if you really have to go into production. You should try to locate some shops or dealers with combination machines and give them a try. You might be surprised about the setup times. I visited some dealers in Turku area and for example the...

Rigth you are, on 2nd reading it's very clear.

After reading this i think Random Orbital Bob is hitting the right topic, but I want to emphasize that 1) DUST PROTECTION and 2) SOLVENT PROTECTION are two totally DIFFERENT THINGS! The P1-P3 rated filters are for DUST protection, i.e. they inhibit small, tiny and extremly tiny particles to...

If it's only 15 months old, take it back! The EU legislation helps here, even if the warranty is only for 12 months, the manufacturer is responsible of their product (virhevastuulaki in Finnish, can't find a handy translation) for the expected life time. For all consumer goods EU has typically...

It's in the middle sized buildings over here where there are issues. After a couple of high-profile incidents there is a lot of concern about problems in medium to large timber frame structures and the fire services are pressing for changes in building regulations due to concerns about rapid...

What do you mean? In general here in Finland wooden frames are considered safer by fire department - IF fire catches. Of course steel does not catch fire, but it has the problem of loosing it's strenght very rapidly in heat and the steel frames collapse in an unexpected manner. It's not...

One of the few brands remaining that are still made in Germany.

Do you have to move it around, is portability an issue? The Kapex is SIGNIFICANTLY lighter compared to the Bosch, even the Bosch GCM10SD is much heavier and the new 12 inch thing is a mammoth (and expensive, too).

In Finland it's used widely, for centuries, for kitchenware and at least one Health Library lists a number of plants/trees and it states clearly there that (http://www.terveyskirjasto.fi/terveyski ... i=lmy00016) it's not toxic. The leaves are also edible and you can make tea of them. I think...

You can find some rules how to calculate the loss of suction etc. via these pages; http://www.spiralmfg.com/downloads/dust_collection.pdf It downloads a PDF file that explains some of the things and shows you one example (compilicated one). Avoid T-branches, avoid any hard 90 degree curves -...

That kind of bandsawed look is nowadays even available for parquets! I was quite amazed when one my friends got that kind of looking oak parquet that was on top of that shiny black.

3rd option is also Stellite, there are blades made from that (even more expensive than TCT), but can anyone tell the practical reasons why to use Stellite?

Meanwhile, in Finland... - 32.5 degrees Celsius outside. No way you want to work there. Most electrical equipment start to have all kinds of problems with their plastic parts. Cheap plastic wires can break off, like the car battery charger wires I had... #-o So, you have to work indoors and...

Meanwhile, in Finland... Outside temperature this morning was -32.5 degrees Celsius. Inside the garage (which has seen a car inside it ONCE during 6 years) - +11 degrees Celsius. But, it could be +18 degress Celsius, if I wanted it to be that, but I'm trying to save some electricity (as it's...

The framing timber looked to be green, impregnated wood? Is that a requirement in UK? In Finland we never use tanalized wood indoors. The walls did not seem insulated either, or was there insulation behind the plywood? Nice looking space though, the the 1/2 story high rooms are always a...
