Hi all, has anyone got experience with the smaller JET drum sanders (10-20 and 16-32)? From what I can gather the machines are good if you get a good one, but there's lots of friday afternoon machines out there. Was going to buy second hand if I can find one but the quality control issues are...

Hi all, has anyone attempted this joint? I know the basics of how it's produced, cutting a notch in the seat, running a rebate cutter around the notch and a matching round over bit over the leg, but does anyone have any hints and tips to get the fit as perfect as possible?

Hi all, I wanted to get hold of some Corian, but according to the website they have a policy of only selling it to approved fabricators. Does anyone know where I could find some offcuts?

Hi, can anyone recommend some affordable yet reliable digital scales for weighing out epoxy?

Does anyone know if veritas are planning to release any more sizes in their range of bench chisels?

Hi all, I'm making a bedside table, very simple design with one drawer at the top and a shelf below. Just deliberating how to join the shelf and the drawer divider (both solid panels) into the carcass sides. I was thinking a stopped dado with a small shoulder of 1-2mm on the panels to hide any...

Hi all, my planer thicknesser has seemingly died. One day it worked, the next it wouldn't switch on. I changed the fuse and nothing, and I checked for micro switches and couldn't see any. Could it be the capacitor? I'm at a loss, any advice would be much appreciated.

Hi all, I'm making a cabinet and need to produce a mitre running the width of a 300mm board (i.e along the end grain). I don't have a table saw at my disposal so how do I get the mitre as accurate as possible using handtools? Is there a suitable jig?

Anyone know a good source?

Hi all, I'm dovetailing an oak toolbox and am struggling to see my knife lines in both the end grain and long grain when transferring tails to pins. As a result I'm being over cautious when sawing and leaving myself far too much paring. I tried applying electrical tape before transferring tails...

Just an idea, but I think it would be interesting and useful if on our profiles we could upload pictures of what we've made. I know there's the project showcase and the wip forum but it would be nice to see what eachother make at a glance. Before I suggest to the mods thought I'd see if it's a...

Hi all, just wondering whether it's advisable to pare with the grain when resizing dovetail pins? I've read a few books that suggest this and seen a few videos, but I was taught only to pare across the grain in case the grain changes the paring direction and sends the chisel off line. I know the...

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a suitable product for bleaching wood (wenge)?

Hi all, does anyone know if there is a commercially made version of the dovetail marker detailed by Robert Wearing in the resourceful woodworker?

Just wondering if there's anything at all I could do to use a 1.5mm drill bit in a pillar drill chuck that ranges from 3-16mm? Is there anything along the lines of a collet adapter that can be used in a chuck? I'm guessing not but I don't really want to fork out for a new chuck as I only just...

Hello all, was just fitting the hinges for a small box and thought I'd just freehand the pilot holes but a couple have come out significantly off vertical. Any suggestions for what to fill them with so I can re-drill with a pillar drill?

Hi all, I just got myself a dakota deluxe router table from Rutlands after hearing some positive things said about it here and was pleasantly surprised by the quality for price until I checked the angle aluminium fence for square. It's about 2mm out at one end and 1mm out at the other in the...
