Hi guys, Been a while since I posted here, I hope everyone is doing well and has kept safe! I'm selling my Bosch mitre saw, I bought it for a job last year, used it probably 20ish times? And now it's sitting in my workshop. Aside from the dust it's collecting, it's in near enough mint...

Sold!

After upgrading to a new bandsaw I no longer need this fence. Bought a couple of years ago from Axminster, it has some marks from use but functions as it should, which is very well. It arrived from Axminster with a grub screw missing - this would be easy to replace but to be honest I never found...

I use a Kunys one most of the time, this one in fact. It's pretty heavy duty and well built - I removed one of the larger pockets and one of the hammer loops to make it a bit less cumbersome.

I've found the value/quality ratio of Axminster's clamps to be pretty good. Poor quality clamps will have you cursing when something annoying inevitably happens as you try to do your glue up...

A friend of mine was involved with this project and told me about the book - I got it the other day and it's very nice indeed. It covers traditional timber framing techniques and focuses on a more thoughtful, slow and community driven approach to carpentry. Lots of nice illustrations and...

So far this week I have managed to smash my phone, somehow damage my car and now do this to my P/T. And it's only Wednesday! It's a Startrite SD310, with one of those soft starts where you have to hold the power on until it's got up to speed. I took too thick a pass while planing and the...

It depends on the job, with furniture I only do a few pencil sketches, but with structural kinda things I draw it in SketchUp and like to provide a PDF of the drawings as well as reference images so the client can get an idea of what I'm thinking and stuff.

Is it possible to delete ones own topics? It is genuinely annoying that moderators keep on editing my posts when I ask why moderators are editing my posts. They will probably do it to this one. :rolleyes:

But as an American aren't you alarmed at all?

ANYWHO, the point of this thread was to shed light on the objective disparity of police treatment between white protestors and black protestors in America. If you don't agree then you're wrong, soz.

LOL so you're likening yesterday's scenes to the Black Lives Matter protests? "Exactly the same thing when it is a right wing riot". No, forcefully gaining entry to a government building in order to change the results of a legitimate election is not the same thing as rioting. Good try though!

The fact is that police behaved very differently towards an angry and as far as I can tell not particularly peaceful(?) crowd of white protestors than it did to an angry but mostly peaceful crowd of black protestors.

Absolutely insane scenes.

I thought this might be a useful topic for anyone looking looking to glaze green oak structures. I'm about to glaze an oak porch using the "direct" method - cutting rebates into the oak, then fitting glass and beading. Expanding foam tape will go between the glass and the oak to prevent a...

Thanks guys, been looking at used on eBay/gumtree, probably the way to go!

Hello all and Merry Christmas. I’ve got some work coming up that a mitre saw will be useful for (cutting rafters, window beading). Having never used one before I thought I’d get some advice. Is it worth going for a double bevel machine or will single bevel suffice? I imagine this is one of those...

Nice!

Scribe it in - would look brilliant.

Every time I visit this thread I'm always wowed by what everyone's been up to and the quality of the work. I recently made some small decorative trusses for this memorial pergola which were then beautifully carved by a friend of the client with a rose on one side and an owl on other. Nice lil...
