I've been looking for a cabinet saw similar to the 10", 3hp Harvey/Deft/Xcalibur machines that you used to be able to buy - Axminster is going to be selling their own branded Harvey by the end of the year, but I'm not confident I'm going to like the prices very much. In any case, I did come...

Up for sale is my Jet 16-32 Plus drum sander. I bought this for a project where I needed to do a bunch of bent laminations for railings around a cot bed. It worked perfectly for that project, but sadly I've not used it since. I've got a couple of extra rolls of sandpaper for the machine which...

Finally getting around to selling off a few of my unused machines. First up, an iTech 10" (254mm) 3hp (2200kw) table saw which I bought new from Scott Sargeant. As I understand it, this is the same saw/design as the SIP 01332, and I believe Axminster had it's own version as well (AW10?) I...

I've gone over the very helpful post from Ian Parkin, and I've seen a couple of threads on the forums here but I'm still not able to get this darned thing set up quite right. The infeed table seems to be ok - and also doesn't really appear to have any way to adjust it. The outfeed table on...

I normally try to avoid buying from Rutlands, but I wanted to add a digital planer readout to my jet drum sander. I had attached one to my old 15" planer back in Canada, and I fell in love with it. Looking online, I could only find one supplier in the UK and they were out of stock. Rutlands had...

I remember seeing these somewhere, but for the life of me I can't seem to find them when I look for them online. The closest I come to are various window hinges, which are not quite right. They're very simple - two pieces of steel, one long and one short, with one end of the short piece hinged...

I've got to make up a bunch of curved plywood panels for a crib project, and I've been dithering about the type of plywood to use. I'd originally planned to use 3 layers of 3mm plywood with 2 layers of 1.5mm maple veneer on the outside. This would give me a panel 12mm thick, which is about where...

Just thought I'd post my recent experience with Westcountry. I found myself in need of a drum sander, and I was dithering between the Jet 10-20 and the Jet 16-32... I always prefer to buy the largest machine I can, but there was a good £350 price difference between the two, and I really don't...

My question is this: Is 'construction veneer' just a sheet of 1.5mm thick, good quality veneer? Or does it mean something else entirely? Reason for asking: I find myself needing to create a bunch of curved panels for an oval baby crib/cot. The largest panels will be around 21" wide by around...

I hope this is the right place for this question... I've bought a Startrite P/T + 1-bag dust collector off of eBay, but I now find that I'm utterly swamped at the office and won't be able to go and pick them up in anything like a reasonable time. Does anyone have any experience with hiring a...

Jointer/planer or planer/thicknesser, however you slice it I find myself in need of one. I don't normally go anywhere near combination machines, but as I'm having to put together a new workshop in a tiny little space I'm seriously considering just ordering one of the soon-to-be-discontinued...
