I like Tamar at 3x3 Custom. Her approach to problem solving is very good

working on a home project using white laminated/formica plywood. When cutting on tablesaw, some small chips on the laminate were created near the plywood edges which are still visible after applying white edge-banding. What is the best way to fix these. I read to use white nail polish. Has...

Thanks again and also to Doug71. I wanted to call out trade-hinges for excellent customer service. I ordered them and afterwards received the comment from baldkev. I called them and as the courier had not yet arrived they were happy to add the soft close pistons. Now I'll wait for their...

Rob - Exactly what I am looking for. Thanks a lot. Not soft close but will do the job at hand. Thanks again

Happy to pay those prices but not 28 pounds which Amazon UK is requesting https://www.amazon.co.uk/Blum-Compact-Frame-Blumotion-Overlay/dp/B009KJYPA8/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=Blum+Compact+Face+Frame+Hinge&qid=1630585665&s=diy&sr=1-3

I am building a cabinet and decided to use the american style face frame instead of classic Euro style. I seem to be unable to find reasonable priced cabinet door hinges compatible with face-frame (partial overlay). Amazon's prices are scary high as they are shipped from USA. I need the...

I am a hobbyist woodworking. I have been using the Evolution Rage 5S table saw for a few years. I have been very happy with it but am starting to reach some of its limitations as I take on more complex projects and want better accuracy. What would you recommend as the next upgraded table saw...

Using my Evolution Rage 5S table saw connected to a shop vac (Triton 1400W) I always get a large pile of sawdust on the floor directly underneath Have others experienced this or maybe I have a setup issue Thanks, Matthew

nice

@novocaine you were right....that bottom right side guide was hiding. Things are much better now and thanks for your help. Tried some cuts and the last 10% drifts just a small amount now but certainly a major improvement. I'll do some more adjustments and also look into getting a better...

@novocaine Thanks for the explanation. Really helpful. I had thought the bearings needed to touch the blade and the guide to not touch but be close. I have now made some set-up changes. It is improved but still perfect. For the guides, I made the right guide touch the blade and the left...

Thanks for the reply and @petermillard I love your videos. In fact your Titan bandsaw videos convinced me to try it out. The problem with the drift is even when I do it by hand without the fence I am unable to move the wood back in line. I have upload a short video 40 sec video to explain...

Hi I have the basic entry level bandsaw from Titan / screwfix. I know it’s not the best of bandsaws However I am getting excessive drift (of a few cm) when cutting even with the fence. The blade seems tight. I wondered if others have had similar experiences and can provide some tips...

I wonder if it is worth spending 3 times the amount compared to the Clarke CDP5RB which is a pretty solid drill press

I have this router and also use the same trick of a plastic tie to keep the switch on (there seems to be no other way). In terms of adjusting the router height from the top of the table, I have been unable to find a solution to this so far. Would welcome any idea or tips on how to do this
