I've been wondering that myself :roll: But what can be wrong? A blade runs around three wheels, quite simple really. Ray 8)

No the motor doesn't stall the belt slips. I just wont have to be in a hurry :roll: Ray 8)

No problem Devon' I like a joke and a bit of wind up when it's in good taste. As I've said if I put any pressure on it would stop the blade. I had to let it do its own cutting. I wanted a piece of Pine about 100mm. It didn't cut much faster than the Beech and broke when it came to a knot :(...

:lol: :lol: :lol: Nice one Paul no not having you on Devonwoody. I must say both Saws U/K and Dakin Flathers have been very supportive. However one replacement blade I received, I have drawn their attention to. It has a decided kink in the weld area...

It's a 4mm blade, 12 t per inch. The curves are gentle, working back and forward to try and not put strain on the blade. I'll keep my eye on the top guide. I'll just stick to straight cut's and bin it next time. I can do most of what I want with the jig saw. I havn't broke one jig saw...

Thanks for the info' Mike. My projects are Air Rifle stocks I've only made two, but enjoying it. I started by carving add on pieces for stocks. Then I made a full one This was my first full Stock. http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL1443/6 ... 520448.jpg My latest...

Can someone point me to info' on how to do cappings? Inlays', can a veneer be placed on and sanded to look like it's an Inlay? I'm thinking of project in Walnut with Rosewood cappings and a Maple veneer/inlay Ray 8)

Rustins say not to use it over other manufatures products, well they would say that wouldn't they :roll: However I'll be using Liberon wood dyes and Bostik Fast-Tak aerosol adhesive. Am I asking for trouble if I ignore Rustins guidelines? Ray 8)

Many thank's Argee. The Data sheet was a great help. Ray 8)

Info' wanted on this product. Best method of application? Can it be used over a water dye? Can it be used over a sanding sealer? Any pic's of projects finished with it? Suppliers? Anything else? Ray 8)

Well I know now. I'll carry on with what I've got and order a couple of pound of filler :roll: Ray 8)

Thank's Scrit, A little bit late for my present project now, I just went up to a Joinery factory and asked for some ply' :roll: I wanted to get started. You know how it is. I'm going to have to do some filling in the holes in the open sections of the leaves. I must have dropped lucky there's...

Thank's Paul, I didn't mind the slipping belt so much. I thought, better than breaking it :roll: 5mm either side, I wasn't far off. Maybe I could have moved the back pulley a little closer. I could feel the chug chug of the weld as it went through. I didn't like that. Dragon are the...

I wanted to do a project in veneers. Well I suppose Ply' is veneers I've just started a project, after seing a guy who does simmillar projects in Ply' I decided to use it. I'm using severall pieces of 9mm Ply'. I'm going to dye colour the pieces, one blue one red. Then glue them together...

O/K it's an old bench top one I bought for £30 off ebay. Blade 1 - managed to cut some straight lengths of Beech. approximately 60mm x 800mm. took about half an hour. I don't push the timber it just stops the blade. I naturally thought the blade was old and not so sharp. I made some gentle...

I wouldn't know where to get ammonia. Another question. Are there deferences in the quality of Ply'? I don't want knots. Ray 8)

I've just finished this. http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/vie ... &members=1 Pic's 1-5 on the left, I did the ally' folding hook as well :D 6 & 7 were an earlier project. For my next project I'm planning on doing a laminate. For ease of construction I'm going to use a number of pieces...

I've tried some Liberon finishing oil and boiled Linseed oil side by side on a piece of scrap. The Linseed brings out the grain better than the Liberon. But is a tad darker. I've used these to good effect on Walnut and Beech in the past. But I want to keep the the lite tone of the Spalted Beech...

Thank's for the links Jason. On seing your finished projects I'm shying away from an oil finish. I think I'd lose the tone of the timber to the oil. It will need to be a tough hard finish as it will get a lot of use and handling. All comments invited :) Ray 8)

Thank's lads. Any recommendations on the manufactures of sanding sealers? I believe my local general woodwork shop sells Rustins stuff. Do Rustins market a cellulose sealer. What about mail order. Any recommendations. I'll take some pic's and post them for you to see what I'm up against...
