    India’s successful Moon Landing

    That is just another bunch of parasites - I won't argue this one :D Jews were allowed by their God to be kicked out of their land as a punishment for their sins. They were supposed to never come back there but the West decided otherwise and destabilized the whole region, giving a spark to the...

    mahogany desk build questions

    Hello. Recently I've got my hands on quite a lot of mahogany boards (some of it rescued from a lumberyard set on fire 30? years ago). Boards are random. The nicest and oldest are nearly 2000x300x60mm plus many random bits and boobs (furniture trims, tables, sink plates) that were salvaged/...

    bathroom corner basket installation

    Have a good weekend folks and thanks for any advice given. My girlfriend recently bought 2 corner baskets that I must install in the shower cabin.

    Advice needed jointer vs planer thicknesser

    Metabo HC260 is fitted with aluminium tables. Still very capable machine. When I was on the market I've decide to fork out for Itech 260s. No regrets ;)

    Making Sprung Bed Slats

    Hmm a different experience with Simba for me. We left our mattress to get to its shape after unpacking, which was all the hassle I remember. My partner did not complain about the smell and she is pretty sensitive when it comes to scents. Mattress stiffness is a personal thing. Recently we were...

    Advice requested on a thicknesser

    I've had Metabo DH330 thicknesser and while I'm happy with the performance, I can't say it is quiet. Recently I bought a larger p/t with an induction motor and I can have a phone conversation right beside it. As far as I know, none of the benchtop thicknessers with dc motors will be quiet but...

    Pillar drill

    I do have Bosh PBD40 and it is a really nice drill if your space is limited or your budget does not include a sturdier floor standing unit. There was a small amount of runout (.24mm on 200mm so it would not affect woodworking but still) which can be totally eliminated by replacing bearings...
