    Dust Extractors again

    Why not suck out all the nice warm air from your workshop in the depths of winter, only to replace it with cold air coming in under the door? Richard

    Dust Extractors again

    Picking up on Alf's point about the Axminster WV1000, I have a Record RSDE3 which looks similar. It copes will with the output from my 10" P/T. It leaves a few stray shavings on the floor & table, but the work is clear and that's what's important. It also has the filtration to cope with fine...

    Wetstone grinders

    Thanks for your comments. I have asked some questions of APTC and I thought that you might be interested to see their response 1. Can the water bath be removed or drained via a hole & plug? Or would I have to tip the machine? This machine has a drain plug, so this makes life easier for...

    Planing Twisted Timber

    Hi everyone. I have some twisted planks to plane on my P/T. If I apply pressure to the plank on the infeed table, transferring to the outfeed side as soon as there is enough timber there to press on, then the face of the plank will be set by the angle of twist at that end. By the time the far...
