Hi all Don't visit as often as I used to, been looking for posts from Scrit. But nothing recent. What's happened?

Have to agree. As soon as the smug gits face is on, even the adverts, I have to switch channels! Just a jobber who got lucky, right time, right place!

Hi Any recommendations where to buy from? I would like the guide rail kit included please! Online with fast delivery to site! is best for me. Thanks Steve

Boomer, Age is not a barrier to anything, unless you let it be! As for the 5yrs to be an expert, I'm a time served joiner and have been for getting on for 30 yrs and I don't consider myself an expert. Like anything else in life, there's always more to learn. The basic principles I try to teach...

Hi all Cat got your tongues :wink: So do we have the cheapest price! Okay, the cheapest price without ignoring the important issues such as is the product suitable, reliable etc. Cheers Steve

Hello Chaps So do we have the cheapest price for the T11? Also I read something about the 110v power supply, which is not usually mentioned. Can't remember off hand what it was (sorry just got in from the pub!) So can this router be powered from a 3.3 kw transformer? Cheers Steve

Hi all Alf, Touche' (hope the spelling is correct!) Someone please remind me not to post while intoxicated!! Steve

Hi all Pooka, have you got a yard or garden in which you would be able to do all the "messy" stuff? Surely this is better than making a real mess in the house? If the spare room is that small, any machines would spew out shavings and sawdust which will either hang in the air or get trodden...

Neville Thanks for the advice my friend. This will be my next purchase. Cheers Steve

Hi Neville, which particular model do you have? and how many cubic metres is it designed for? I don't know if that is important or not, but they seem to be graded by the size of workshop. Thanks for the replies Chaps Steve

Hi I'm looking to buy one of those fine dust filter type things for my shop. this is the type of thing I'm looking at http://www.axminster.co.uk/product.asp? ... UQIRP1QGFT Don't know if I've put the link in properly! I'm after something which will get rid of the fine dust which seems to hang...

Hi surely you mean the 4" x 2" challenge, we do live in the UK after all! Steve

Hi Has anyone got one of these stones? One of the other joiners had one and I had a go, the difference in sharpening time and sharpness was unbelievable! The downside is that they seem so expensive. The stone he had was single sided with the "diamonds" spaced about 3 or 4 mm apart. So any...

Hi I have a Scheppach hf-30 spindle moulder and would like to try and get hold of a manual if possible. Is there such a thing as a site which has manuals (PDF) for older machines? I've tried a google search, but nothing specifically for the hf-30. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks Steve

Tom TBH if you apply for a job in a joiners shop, they expect you to be able to do the job! You should'nt need proof, your word should be good enough. If you can't hack it they'll fire you! Cheers Steve

Hi Just ordered my bandsaw blades today. As I didn't have a clue which blade I wanted I left myself in the salesmans hands, ended up buying three! The chap on the phone was very helpful and seemed to know his stuff, I would recommend them if you are unsure what to buy. Cheers Steve

Pooka Hi My advice a a full time time served Joiner would be , don't bank on making a living from your workshop. It is absolutely cut throat out there in the real world. Now I don't want to "wee" on anyones bonfire, but being realistic I think that most of the people that change profession and...

Thanks Alf I`ll try them at the weekend. Cheers Steve

Hi Has anyone had anything to do with this book club? I had a leaflet fall out of one of the WW mags and was wondering are they ok or a con? It look's to be a good deal on the surface but...... Has anyone had "membership" of this club, any views good or bad? Cheers Steve

Hi Can anyone point me in the right direction for new badsaw blades. I'm starting to run offline badly on anything reasonably thick, and resawing is out of the question at the moment. An online supplier would be best, although I'll take any advice offered. BTW bandsaw is Elektra Beckum 315 (the...
