Noggsy, I’m sorry if this is way out there and no use in practical terms for you and your team, but have you considered these? https://www.virustaticshield.com/ I’ve nothing to do with the company but I’m aware of other agencies using them under standard respirators and standalone. In any...

If I may offer a piece of advice based on having been in the same boat as yourself. If you can, borrow or buy a foam gun from Screwfix or the like. Way more controllable and less wasteful. Regards Heliotrobe

Do the makers of accoya do the acetylisation process with any other species? I seem to recall something about Beech being treated in the same way but can't find anything about it online. It's a pity it's not done in the UK with domestic timber, perhaps it could bring down the cost a bit? It...

Thanks for posting this thread. I'll be following this with interest. I have a load of rift cut beech blanks that I had originally offered for sale on here for exactly this project but I have more time now so I am going to resume the project myself. What you have done so far looks brilliant...

That I actually hate my current occupation and dearly wish I had served my time as a joiner. I suppose the lesson learned is gratitude for having a job. What are you making Penny?

Sorry Penny, I can't yet reply to your PM yet for some reason. It could indeed be a rumour and I shared the same call sign as here but elected to leave that Forum as it got a bit 'repetitive' :roll: ( yours began with an L). I was I must confess, a different service to you though. Good luck with...

Hi Penny, This is my first post here but I have been kicking about for a while. There is a timber place in Inver by Dunkeld that might have Cherry. It may be a trek for you but you could phone them. I once enquired about cherry and beech and they were confident about getting both no bother. ( I...
