Readers of this thread may be interested to know that you can now order a Ryobi 18v Air Strike 23 gauge P318 cordless pin nailer from Amazon UK. As a grey import from the USA, there is no manufacturers warranty but at £116.59 I took the risk and placed an order - it arrived in about 10 days. So...

I used to have a B&D 18V NiCd drill and found that the Dewalt 18V NiCd batteries were compatible It might be easier to switch to a second hand Dewalt NiCd charger & battery? You would need to check compatibility for your particular drill though.

Hi Micky Yes the fence is still available. Your 315 seems to have a similar table size (548 wide x 400 deep) to the Meber (500 wide x 400). The key dimension is the table thickness. The Meber is 34mm. The 315 needs to be the same or less (if less some spacers will be required). I have added a...

Item is now SOLD - thank you. Camvac 386 Twin motor Dust Extractor (2 x 1000W) offered at £110. This was manufactured before Record Power took Camvac over and has the straight type 4" hose connection. I purchased the extractor from a 'hobby' woodworker like myself and I have since had to...

Far better all round to source a longer length. I recently purchased a 4m length of solid oak (strip) worktop for £200 inc. delivery from here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390214356609 Appearance and quality seem very good but I can't vouch for the longevity as it has only been installed for 2...

I have also run US 110v tools with both brush and induction motors without any issues. You could make up an adaptor lead to avoid cutting off the original plug.

Benjamin I have used http://www.rockler.com/ a few times without any issues. They list the 7518 for $299.99. I have got away without being billed for UK import duties and VAT a couple of times on Rockler orders, but that was for smaller value totals.. In case you havn't seen them, there...

Jacob I used a method similar to yours to form the bullnose on my stairs from kerfed solid oak. On the first attempt, the oak split. On the second attempt, I added some steel sheet to the outside, clamped in slight tension and then attempted the bend. Much to my relief this time it worked...

Andy I think that must have been a repeat of the Sir John Harvey Jones Troubleshooter programme on Morgan? I just did a Google search - the original broadcast was 1991 - hard to believe it was over 20 years ago. I also came across an interesting 2009 telegraph article at the link below...
