Just watched the video. It must have taken a lot of time and patience to sand all the angles on the pieces and glue it together. =D> =D>

Just goes to show that necessity is the mother of invention. If the guy can't afford or can't get bigger machine tools where he lives then you have to DIY it. Did anyone else notice the drawer slide guides he was using on the large home made drill press he has?? I bet he's making more money...

That's a very nice box. I love the way the base flows into the box body. =D> =D> If I were selling that piece, bearing in mind it's a one off as it can't be repeated due to variations in grain orientation etc, I would be looking for a minimum price of £45 GBP and work from there. Remember...

Hi, Sounds like an interesting project. Have you had a look on Youtube?, loads of bike camper design ideas on there. There is one I saw made from a type of lightweight corrugated plastic sheeting, ( don't know what its called, similar to what estate agents signs are made from ). It's flexible...

That's exactly the way my EX21 arrived, just a bit smaller box but extremely well packed and bolted to a ply board just right for practice cuts!!

Hello, I have bought my pen kits from Axminster who give discounts depending on the number you buy, 10% to 25% I think depending on the amount bought. They also sell bulk packs of 100 basic slimline pens if you turn for craft shows, corporate gifts etc. Hope this helps, Regards, Dave.

The guy just seems to add the word "vintage" to all his listings so junk becomes antiques???? Probably sells to these arty f**ty london types with more money than sense. I'm obviously in the wrong business!!!!

Hello and welcome, I think it might help if you could give us an idea of the type of bowls you are looking for, ie:- deep, shallow, large, small, for food use etc. Is there a website we could see to get an idea of what you would require? Also, is your potential turning partner expected to buy...

Hi Manos, I would suggest that everything needs to be bolted down firmly or you risk breaking belts, projects and any human parts in flying distance!!! For simplicity I would mount the pulley block in a slotted mounting block so you have your gearchange adjustment there. And mount the motor...

Hi Manos, Looking at your photos it looks like the separate pulley block needs to line up parallel to the headstock pulleys with the small pulley on the block parallel to the large pulley on the headstock. So large pulley to small pulley or back to front if you like. You would also need to...

Hello Coach Carpenter, With regard to the posters who have voiced opinions about getting their bench, tools etc from their vehicle to the job site. Would it be possible to have a wheeled platform type accessory to turn the bench into a kind of sack truck so the bench and tools, transformers, etc...

I believe Pegas have recently started making scroll saw blade bands that fit on bandsaws. I don't know if they are here in the UK yet but if you have a look at the Feines Aus Wuppertal youtube channel, the guy on there is into all things Pegas and there are a few videos of him demonstrating a...

I used JB Weld to repair a crack in the radiator header tank on our old motorhome. It held for three years before we swapped it for our new one and may still be going strong for all I know!!!

Some amazing pieces there. Some of that segmentation and piercing work must have taken weeks to do!!

Hi welcome, Try looking for log slices. You may have to be prepared to plane or sand them to get a surface suitable for pyrography. Hope this helps, Regards, Dave.

Hi Fairweatherer, It sounds like the stands you need could be a bespoke item and need to be specially made. Depending on the quantity you need do you have any local metal workers who may be prepared to undertake the work? Would a stand made from wood and ebonised black or painted be acceptable...

Hello, Presumably you have a specific product in mind for the use of these display stands? Have you tried searching for specific display stands for whatever it is, eg:- doll display stand etc? It would help us to help you if you could give us a little more information. You could always put a...

I watched Hans Meier try to assemble a basket like that on one of the Gwinnett Woodworkers youtube videos. He gave up in disgust after a few attempts so you 've done a lot better than one of the so - called scroll saw experts!! =D> =D> Good to have you back on board again by the way...

If you have, or know anybody local, with a scroll saw it would'nt take long to do and you could make up any letter pattern you wanted in whatever wood you wanted.

I use the PayPal Here card reader. With the latest machine you have the tap and go contactless payment option for goods under £30 GBP in value. Some of what I make I sell to my workmates and the tap and go option is popular as they don't need to go fiddling around for cash. As long as their bank...
