About to undertake a kitchen refit for my son, at the moment his bathroom extraction ducting runs across the top of his kitchen units. Can I utilise this duct and tee in from the hob extraction? He is in a 2nd floor flat so drilling a new hole is pretty much out of the question, and I want to...

Might have just made it after all - very rushed photos!!!!

Potpourri bowl. Very wide rim that shows off the contents. 8" wide and 3.5" deep. The outside was ebonies and the rim has some gold finish. The bowl was made from Ash. All completed with a Hamlet Bowl Gauge (one of their double ended) Very please with the inside as it's a very nice "curve"

Argggghhhh Just got back from a weekend away and missed it. Hey ho

Hi all - firstly sorry it's taken so long to post my SS-2014 gift. But here is a wonderful box - with fantastic dovetails (only wish i had the patience and skill :-) ) AS the bottom of the box is stamped I do know who the generous SS is - but in the sprit of the first S of SS... you know who...

Steve, been following this from the beginning - and have to say this is a wonderful build story - not just the physical build but how the tone of your posts have become so much more optimistic - set backs (which are almost inevitable) don't seem to get you down as much as they did. To use a over...

Just haven't had the time for September and October's challenges - but should have time in November - lots of shed time making Christmas presents so will make someone something fruity as well....

I would like the monthly comp's to continue - they challenge me to improve my skills, the critique is often very good and again helps me improve.

Hi Try giving Record Power a call - their technicians are excellent; and gave me a lot of advice when i refurbished my old CL-4 Sammo

Unfortunately I am away all of September so not able to enter.

Ah yes. It is oak. My plan is to eventually make 4. Two for red wine two for white.

Well we have all been there - best laid plans and all that. I knew I was going to be busy at the end of August, so got myself organised and had my (first ever) Goblet ready within a few days of the start of the month. Then Bank Holiday to day have passed in a blur of activity, parties to...

Steve, are you thinking about heating at all, I have a more modest workshop my self and added two small oil filed rads that I leave on the low setting during the winter, made a huge difference to working during the winter months ( I am a hobbiest so mainly weekends) especially with condensation...

Well 4th... I am pretty pleased, bit like Steve F - I was not happy with the lid, struggled with the drill wandering, and yes there were chuck marks on the underside of the lid (well spotted) but i couldn't work out how to hold it. Have to agree that purple is not my colour either - but you...

At risk of adding fuel to a bizarrely emotive subject, as a customer I ALWAYS add cost of goods + p&p = cost of item to me is that what I want to pay, how does it compare with other suppliers etc. appreciate that sometimes there is little choice (my very old bandsaw as an example) but in the...

Bowl is made from a very plain piece of chestnut - I used purple stain and polished with hard wax. The lid is oak, not stained for contrast. The circumference is 10cm; height 10cm. The 'customer' for this is my daughter and her favourite colour is purple - hence the use of stain. The turning was...

Pete - thanks for the link. I assume when using CA - you fill the cavity with the metal powder first, then 'pour' the CA over the top letting it permeate through. Think in this case I will simply colour the epoxy and see what I get - I think that the cracks that have appeared below the glitter...
