Very considerate; what a gentleman :wink:

Thank you, I will take a look.

I did finally find one, a discontinued but brand new Hitachi C12LC. When I purchased it I told the salesman I wasn't bothered about what I thought was the 'gimmicky' digital read-out. Since using the saw I've realised how useful, and accurate, the digital read-out is! Extremely accurate saw...

Just to add to my last post; it was an item I purchased from eBay, a quite weighty 3-phase AJH Bandfacer. I expected to have to contact the seller to arrange collection but 'Dann' just asked for the seller's details and he took care of everything. The same day he collected it, he delivered it...

The fella I found on Anyvan.com was 'Danns' telephone: 07521056972 - email: [email protected] All I can say was he did an excellent job for me.

That demonstrates it perfectly, thank you 'misterfish'

Yes, years ago I bought a stock Cockerel for a breeding pen through Exchange & Mart and it was delivered by train and I just collected it from my local station. It wasn't free-range! it was in a box. Day-old chicks were sent that way too, but it's all been banned now.

That is a brilliant idea! A friend of mine has a small engineering works, and he could mill the top and one flange as you suggest. Definitely something I will look into. Thank you.

Once upon a time you could put a label on the handle and put it on a train! Hermes only carry up to 15kg Almost all couriers will only transport items (however large) if boxed. I needed a largeish cast iron belt sander collected which could not be boxed and put the job on Anyvan.com and found...

Yes, I do routinely check eBay and will continue to do so, but thanks. I had also considered timber but I usually overdo things and want to put it into original condition. Plus I'm developing a liking/obsession with cast iron! In one of your photographs 'misterfish' I noticed your fence slide...

Would anyone please be able to suggest what the likelihood is of obtaining a cast-iron extension table for a Wadkin 12 AGS sawbench? I'm referring to the bolt-on section that was supplied as standard with the machine when they were new. The size of the extension table for the 12 AGS is 12" x...

What a gentleman you are, and thank you they will be most helpful.

Thanks for the prompt reply and the hyperlink. It is actually a 'plain' 12 AGS manual I'm looking for, and it's the model with the short 'single point' fence. It's the old riving knife problem, but your template when printed off is spot-on the correct size, so thanks a lot for providing that...

I realise this is a very old post, but can you please tell me which manual you are referring to and hopefully how I can obtain a copy. The only download I can find comprises only 17 pages and the riving knife assembly is very different to the one that was discussed here. Thanks

12" chop saws seem readily available in the USA but I can't find a single one here in the UK. All I can find are plenty of slide mitre saws. Would anyone be able to tell me where I can get one here please?
