    can't decide between Record Power or Charnwood

    I've had the record bs 300 bandsaw for nearly 20 years. I've replaced the drive belt and that's it. I would highly recommend Record. Their service backup is good too. I've never owned Charnwood kit so cannot comment on them.

    Elektra beckum tf100 spindle moulder

    These have been around for a while. I'm thinking of buying one second hand. It has a standard 30mm spindle. Are there any options to change this for a 1/2 inch router collet at all?

    Setting scoring blade

    I've set up a conical scoring blade on the panel saw but in order to avoid break out , I have to raise the scoring blade to cut 3mm depth. The scoring blade then stalls in the cut. Is it better to switch to the adjustable scoring blades? Has anyone experienced this problem?

    Help appreciated with switching to LED downlights!

    I've got the same problem and I believe it's due to the transformers. Standard 12v transformers have a minimum Watt requirement which is higher than the 4 to 7 W LED bulbs. You'll need to get LED drivers and swap out the 12v transformers. By the time you work out what's involved, you might...

    I'm making two wardrobes with internal drawers out of 18mm Egger laminated melamine faced chipboard. I need to hide the joinery so I cannot use screws. What is the best method between dowels or biscuit joints or even hidden pocket screws? I haven't got the festool domino or lamello zeta so...

    Powered Respirators

    I've seen mixed reviews of the Trend airflow pro. The JSP powercap seems to be lighter and more user friendly. The big difference is that the trend is rated AFP20, suitable for fine mdf dust whereas the powercap is only rated to AFP10 and not suitable for fine dusts such as mdf. Is this correct?

    Planer thicknesser purchase advice please

    I've got the machine about 20cm from the wall to allow for the blade guard. When you raise the table into thicknessing mode, the table does not protrude beyond the machine so provided you are not concerned about the blade guard, you could position the machine up against your assembly/outfeed...

    Planer thicknesser purchase advice please

    I upgraded to the minimax fs30c with tersa cutters two years ago. It's a great machine and copes well with hardwoods. The choice of blades such as hss, chrome and m42 make it very flexible and blade changing takes two minutes. The only downside is taking the fence off for thicknessing but...

    Spray kit recommendations ( walls and cabinets )

    The fuji spray system works well for cabinets and general woodworking. There is a lot of set up time involved and I've found it's only worth it for batches e.g. kitchen doors etc. In addition there is the dangers of using solvent based products. Fuji do offer different spray fittings with...
