    generating work

    Yellow pages is finished really. There are a few people left who use it to find trades but they are getting fewer and fewer. Yell is second tier online advertising, which is pointless when it is so easy to do it yourself. A website and use adwords. You can use adwords geographically which makes...

    Workshop shed planning permission

    As far as I am aware the issue of being within 1m of a boundary only applies if the pitch of the roof is over 2.5m.

    Bandsaw: should it stay or should it go?

    This is absolutely not true. I have extensive experience with the law in this matter and you can see for yourself by looking at the freely published distance selling regulations that the return postage costs and in fact any of the postage costs are the responsibility of the buyer. One important...

    Anyone ever seen a fine adjuster on a hand heldcircular saw?

    That is absolutely correct... All you have to do is get a Police report number and Festool will pay out for a new tool.

    Small Garden Workshop Build & Tour

    - steve248 On the Kreg Router Table you can adjust the height of the legs so i just compensated for the wheels, I recommend the wheels if you have limited space like myself. Yes, I completely forgot. You simply reduce the height of the legs then attach the feet. I will have to get some. With...

    Small Garden Workshop Build & Tour

    Really great job, I am very jealous. I have the same Router table, I have no regrets, it really is a great bit of kit. I noticed the wheels, how is this working out for you, is it a bit higher?

    Best of Jigs and Tips Sticky

    I take your point but I dont think it should be limited to the best of this type and the best of that. Simply a list of highly rated, by members, articles/threads of jigs etc. I am sure if long time members were asked what was the best or most useful jig tip they ever saw or used on here, they...

    Best of Jigs and Tips Sticky

    Hi, Can I make a suggestion? I know I am new around here so tell me to shut up if I am sticking my nose in where it does not belong. Anyway, I have been reading through to about page 15 in Jigs and Tips and I am really struggling to find the best Jig ideas etc. Can the moderators setup a...

    Kreg Precision Mitre Gauge and Bosch GTS10

    Hi, I have the same problem as you but I was just thinking about this and it might be possible to put on a wooden fence. It would need to have a T groove. I will measure the attachment and see if I can fond a router bit that will make the correct size groove. If I can do this it will solve...

    New Festool TS55R Issues !

    I have this saw and it is amazing, it has truly transformed my work. I have a real attention to detail so I would never rely on a gauge anyway, especially one that is simply printed onto the casing. I use it quite a bit for bevels and simply use a known accurate device to measure the angle...

    Bosch GTS 10 XC table saw

    Hi, I do have this saw, I bought it perhaps for one of the reasons that you are interested, I need to move it around in my workshop quite often. Yes, I think it is flush. I put a straight edge across it and it looks pretty much spot on. However, I think you should make a crosscut sled which is...

    Gumtree Bargin - Festool Kapex

    It is probably too lat now but this is a con... Steer well clear. Unfortunately Gumtree is absolutely full of these listings at the moment. The con is quite long and clever. Basically a relationship is built up on the basis that they will drop it off to you, then they cant as they got called...
