I have the Scheapach dust extractor for my big tools, how do you guys get rid of the sawdust and shavings? I guess some of you burn the shavings in the workshop heater, some of you sell the shavings to pet stores/horse owners, and some of you just bag them and stuff them in landfill. (Only...

Post your favourite kitchen pictures here! I am in the designing process for my new kitchen and although some things are set in stone (or rather granite) I am still looking for ideas. So post your favourite kitchens and say what it is you like about them. Gary

Firstly, a confession, I have a fetish for solid wood kitchens. It's not something I am proud of, but I, and my girlfriend, have accepted it. Due to a serious mould and damp problem in our current kitchen we are scrapping and building from scratch. I will be doing it myself and in a less than...

About to start putting things in place that will dictate the final shape of my workshop. I thought I had everything planned but I am starting to second guess myself so would like some thoughts from those with a bit more experience than me. (Hell, that would include a random person on the bus)...

I believe these are the same company, but I have just found out that Barnes Branch & Co Ltd have a shop in High Wycombe and I am probably going to use them to supply me with most of my hardwood needs. Before I do I just wondered if anyone has had any experience with them or their sister...

Hi all, How do I plug my scheppach equipment into a standard UK 3 pin socket. My electrician says the shed rcd etc should be able to cope with the surge power generated by my tablesaw but I just need to find out how to plug it in. Round bit, square whole problem. Anyone help? G

Hi all, Going for a whistlestop tour of europe in a week or two. Can anyone think of any places to visit in the following areas... Paris, Genoa, Verona, Nice, Switzerland, Berlin, Prague. Anything that might be inspirational or just beautiful would be cool. Thanks, Gary

I hope this isn't out of place, but I am having trouble putting my machinery together and would like someone to come and give me a hand sometime next week. Its heavy stuff and I'm not the biggest of blokes and I have 3 pieces that need putting together. All equipment is Scheapach, there is a...

I am in the process of redesigning our main living room into a library. We are aiming for a gentlemans club/college library look with fire and regency winged armchairs. I am looking for inspiration from you guys (and gals) if any of you have seen anything anywhere whether its in a stately home...

I am looking for a wood that is very dark brown, think Wenge but without being as endangered or difficult to work. Any thoughts? The only thing I could think of was dark stained walnut but as most of the time I don't know what I am talking about I thought I would ask you guys. Gary

I can't seem to find the full stats on its footprint or a review from anyone? It's like someone just made it yesterday and they haven't finished measuring it up yet. I want to know how it compares to the Record BS350 or the Scheppach Basato 3. Getting last minute jitters as I am about to place...

I am about to take the plunge and make the order for my new equipment on Friday. (Assuming they can get it down and into my workshop) I have decided to go with Scheppach across the board as almost all the reviews I read, people seem happy with their equipment. Here is the full list...

...folds down? From the pictures from the website it looks like the front extension is more likely to fold rather than the side extension. But the accessories box in their PDF says it's the width extension that folds. Does anyone have both and can tell me which ones fold away and which are...

I have been wondering how would you make a very rounded edge to a table? Something similar to the table in the observation lounge in star trek the next generation. For those that don't watch the show, imagine the surface of the table slowly bends back under itself over the space of about 6"'s...

I have phoned up my local hardware supplier about buying the TableSaw through them and just got a quote back that I thought was a bit high. Can someone tell me what they would expect to pay for the following, inclusive of VAT and delivery: Scheppach TS2500ci Sliding Table (1.4m) Folding width...

Kitting out my workshop. It will be used for all manor of things but mostly furniture, aquarium and clockmaking. This will involve working with wood (obviously), some plastics, thin metals (mostly brass and aluminium) and occasionally cutting some glass. The current plan is as follows...

...and which ones are a waste? The product brochure has the following addons: Sliding Carriage Table Fence Rail Extension Ruled Fence Rail Wheel Base (Not really interested in moving it) Table with Extension folding (800mm x 640mm) Table with Extension (800mm x 480mm) Suva Suction Attachment...

I am currently in the exciting workshop planning stage. My first priority is a tablesaw as I think that most of my work will be based around this piece. (Despite having no experience but from a lot of reading) My workspace isn't huge, the room dimensions are 19ft x 9ft but with the cupboards...
