Anyone have a copy of this? How did you find it?? It looks VERY VERY detailed from the look inside part. The Complete Manual of Woodworking by Albert Jackson and David Day (31 Jan 1997) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Complete-Manual ... king+books

Thanks Spindle. Great information to get me started, all this reading and no play is like a kid on christmas eve waiting for christmas morning to come :D. I was going to start looking for some books for woodturning and woodworking in general. Lathe sitting in corner waiting for me to finish...

Haha found me a real nice video :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPprpxMoxV4

Yes dust extraction will be a problem, atm we are in middle of building a new workshop as other one was of poor construction :P. Until this is built i doubt i can do any lathe work, maybe i can but definitely not any extraction which means uncomfortable face masks until extraction is on the...

Yes thanks I'll wait for a chuck as I've just been watching them stickies on turning bowls without chuck and looks like anything possible with a bit of thought and planning :D. What are the basic tools I'll need to get started?? Because there are soooo many different types/sizes etc.

P.S. found all the stickies :D Next week will have many headaches from reading but will be well worth it.

Is it my understanding that the DML36SH is a Thread: 3/4" x 16 TPI which is the same throughout all the record range until you get to the professional range, so what ever chucks/accessories I purchased if I did decide to upgrade in a year or 2 to a cl3/cl4 wouldn't need replacing? So lots of...

Well been looking about here and places for a while now at woodworking and wood turning in general, I have not much experience in these but I've always loved how once you practice and gain knowledge and skill you can create something amazing. I only got something basic to play around with, but...

Have you thought about asking about to see if someone has one of the mobile saw mills, its a jig which you connect your chainsaw to and you can cut thick boards using chainsaw. You can load the boards 1 by 1 onto the vehicle and take them back to workshop and neaten them up with bandsaw/planer...

Thanks for the advice. Will 3x2's be sufficient enough or would it be better to go with 4x2's? Yes i will treat everything including the underside to the plywood or chipboard what ever i use. I like you tip about lining under floor with some kind of water proof membrane. Haha this will be fun...

So for the shed base I'm thinking of building 2 x 7ft x 7ft frames using 2" x 3" treated sawn timber, then bolt them together to create a 14ft x 7ft base which then i can apply the sheet material to to create the floor. Would you use plywood or chipboard for the sheet material? Thanks Ben

Must of missed that one, I'll have a browse now and see what goodies i can find. I cannot wait to get it built and slowly kit it out, but i want to do it properly so the roof doesn't bow/leak which what happened last year when my old man built one. Thanks much appreciated Ben

Hello, Basically I'm new to all aspects of woodworking and construction but i would like to start, to do this I'm going to need a warm cosy man cave for tools and equipment. I haven't got much space to play with at the moment but in future i could probably extend the width/length a bit if...
