    I used to buy cheap chopping boards from Ikea , and laser engrave (could CNC) yes no on them .. sold quite well at £20 a pop .. mostly for display , but the other side can still be used

    Ship Ahoy !! Hi Waka

    I "think" this is the 1st time we've actually spotted each other ! Hi ! I don't get on here much .. had a few health issues lately , and recently broke my collar bone .. just about got the use of it now , but picking blackberries is about as much as I'm allowed to lift ! Good to say Hi Hope...

    Help with old Coronet Lathe

    I have the same lathe. I thought next time I change the belt I'll use a segmented belt. (sort of like a bicycle chain)

    Are all pva's the same ?

    after using screwfix cheapy PVA that I bought in bulk many years ago, I was very happy with it. It ran out, and no longer available, so I tried many other cheap brands. I ended up with TB ... in gallon (us) jugs, it's as cheap as any other 'decent' glue. and I've never had any problems with it

    Gone!

    I thought it would be a more temporary glitch that it seems to be :shock: I have 50p for the meter if that helps :D

    flourescent lights?

    I was looking too, last year. I came to the conclusion that they are energy hungry and might be being phased out ?? This was just by looking at the energy ratings listed with each light type. I am still building my new workshop, so will need some kind of lighting early this year. Dont know...
