Apologies for the delay, We finished it :) Before: After:

You just gave me an idea, I know it's not free, but I do have access to Visio :) Thank you for the steer...

Hi, Firstly thank you for sharing, I'll be turning my garage into a wood working shop soon as planning on sharing just like this :) Unless... You have an exempt wood burning stove... and... I think... you can dry the wood to < 20% of moisture (still confirming this one with the council) or at...

Hi, I saw that, but I think that's the general one, after a quick look see it looks more complex. Anyhu, when I sit down and go through it I'll compare, hopefully they'll be the same, which indeed will save me work.

Hi All, So I'm going to start a journey in electrically dismantling and troubleshooting a Record Power Planer Thicknesser - RSPT260, With that in mind, I thought if I'm going to analyse it, I might as well record the circuitry et al (and later share it), So the question here is, what open...

It's alive... It worked, 9-10s as per the duration of the video, linked it direct to the motor then on and off. Seems I have more troubleshooting to do upstream.

But I'm stripping it from the casing/housing, hooking the motor up direct to current... to see if it works... Quite frankly I need to strip the whole thing, this is just the first step.

Thank you, It'll probably sometime in the weekend. I'll keep everyone posted.

Hi, I have the above Jointer, I need to test the motor as part of troubleshooting, It has this motor, Would anything catastrophic happen if I plugged it in directly to the house single phase mains? I think the mains runs @ 13amps? Thanking you...

Hello, Tool Rest Housing got the final final coat, Right moving on to the main foot... I used, Nitromors to start stripped what seem to be 3 different coats of paint, I had to do this twice, it had that much paint on it. Second coat... Now, the tools of paint removal :) Black decker...

Gentleman, thank you... I didn't consider that. I'll give it a try today (with a normal hammer) and if it fails I'll take the banjo to the factory tomorrow. I'll report back. N.b.: I have a vintage 2lb hammer on order from eBay. Have a great Sunday all.

Apologies for the delay chaps, but someone arrived... It's been interesting... Anyhu... back to manly things :) Tool Rest, ahh yes... I just managed to separate the two. Now comes the prep for painting et al, @Mrs R decided she didn't want the rest itself painted (and rightly so) so the...

Not really, the bajo has a hairline fracture I'd like to address and fix. The last resort is taking it into the factory, the Eng. team have a hydraulic press which they can use to convince the pin to come out... not he prettiest, not what I wanted to do but... it'll get the job done. Given how...

No dice, there's one pin that simply just doesn't want to come out. Here he is... Any tips, or just keep at it?

Thanking you sir, I'll post another thread with the dismantling progress... Really appreciate the guidance.
