Is that what gripfill is?

I am about to attach some insulated plasterboard to an existing (flat and straight) plasterboarded wall. I know its not technically woodworking but will be housing my tools once done. As i have always got good advice i thought i would ask you all for some this time too. The existing wall is...

The floor is already done and sorted. My main question is will gripfill be ok to hold the battens? Pete

Hi all When i bought my house the single garage had been converted into a room and unfortuantly along time ago so is not insulated. I am now planning to insulate it and make it a bit more usable. I do however have a couple of questions i thought someone may be able to help me out with. Its a...

What are you using it for? Dust extraction or general cleaning if so what machines is it capable of extracting from?

Brushes changed and one working saw. Cheers for pointing me in the right direction. Pete

Pretty much what i am thinking, but thought i would check first. It was a purchase 5 years ago to get a job done and has lasted ever since so its not done too bad for the money. For the amount of use i am going to use it for i (swmbo) cant justify a new dewalt or makita but am checking ebay for...

Hi I have a cheap (ebay special) mitre saw and suddenly the other day it lost power and started sparking orange/yellow from the motor. The blade also continues spinning for ages once its off. It now does not reach full speed and sparks etc. Is this a terminal problem i have or a case of...

My parents need approx 20 internal doors for their bungalow and want wood but painted white. Where is a decent value and quality place near PETERBOROUGH anyone could recommend. I would make some but 20 is a bit much with day job as well.

Avoid silverline stuff. Got a p/t and it is very inaccurate and I have spent longer fixing it than using it. Oh I am on my second one as the first exploded when it ate its own internal parts. There other tools might be ok but if the p/t is anything to go by avoid!

Now i have read his full description on a computer the sellers description is very clear and his item specifics re the condition also states clearly to check the item description. No cutters shown in the pic either so I will take back my original suggestion of neutral feedback as the seller has...

How tall are you and do you know your inside leg and i might be able to advise the best size. Different makes vary the size required too. Pete

Hate the way people scam on ebat but this time his description is clear and he will be able to dispute any neg feedback related to the cutters and get it removed. Go for neutral as that will stick.

Cant go wrong with a rockhopper, especially on sale price. I think you have tried all you can without damaging the frame too much. The other thing with steel frames is the twisting forces when the post is in the vice would probably either snap it or bend it out of track if its that stuck in...

The frame would be steel and depending on price could be handmade in the UK (kili *) or imported (* trax) which makes no difference as its now dead. Anyway the only successful method we used was lube, big vice and lots of controlled force. Various companies produce seat post reamers but these...
