Morning all I'm looking for a gun to help me with pinning sheet materials together (material will be 12-18mm). I've read bad things about staple/nail combination due to the head leaving a mark on the material. I don't (currently) have any air tools or a compressor. What are my best options...

Hi all I want to build a BBQ structure (pizza oven and pellet grill) for our terrace. I had a design last year and gave V1 a go. Used fencing timber/posts etc. The timber was in a bad state beforehand (not particularly straight) and has warped further. Can I use a softwood (PSE/PAR)...

Hi folks I sold my Titan mitre saw last year as it was taking up space and wasn't THAT accurate. Looking for a new one for the summer. Budget around £200. Single bevel should be enough really. Need to be able to do 90 degree cuts on 3" PSE/PAR. And be 240V. What are your recommendations? I...

I was looking on the Rutlands site and found http://www.rutlands.co.uk/sp+woodworkin ... a+m_dkbc31 I've always wanted a set of 1250-1500 Bessey clamps. But they're £240ish for 4. The Rutlands are £105ish. I understand that the clamping force is much reduced (2.5kN vs 7kN). But is the higher...

I had an email from Rutlands today regarding Clamping Squares http://www.rutlands.co.uk/sp+200mm-clam ... 7218PACK12 I've been pretty tempted to buy the Rockler ones, as seen them used on YouTube in the US. I know Peter Millard makes his own (I don't have a bandsaw to make them like Peter)...

Morning all. I am building my benchtop router table (just to do some roundover and grooving work). It'll be V1, I'm sure. Using the Kreg insert, predrilled for Triton TRA001. With the levelling plates. I'm using 2 x 18mm MRMDF for the table top. I've cut the corners of the opening, and taken...

Can anyone recommend a supplier of M8 T bolts? Need about 4 of probably 50-60mm long and 4 of 80mm long. In fact, a supplier of T bolts for 3/4 track would be handy in addition! Cheers Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Hi I have a drill press. A Bosch PBD40. It's fine. Powerful enough for what I want. Not too much wobble. But I can't drill a hole correctly! I can't get the edges of the bit to match up with where I want them...is there a method for doing it? It's basically just a hole so I can get my jigsaw...

Hi all Following the construction of my V1 workbench...I'll begin V1.5 of my BBQ Station. Which timber should I be using? V1 was fencing material. I don't want to spend a lot. But it needs to look decent and last a couple of years in the North East. Happy to sand, paint, oil whatever...

Hi all I need a workbench. I've been planning different things, I keep changing my mind. So, I am turning to the masses for advice. It'll be mostly used as an assembly bench...I don't do a lot of planing or chiselling at the moment. It's Stage 1a. So, I don't see it as my forever bench. Using...

Hi all Currently working with my electrician friend on putting up some new lighting in the workshop (single, integral garage). Any recommendations? Screwfix have a whole load of them...different lengths, different lumens, different IP rating. I reckon 4-5ft should be enough. Probably two or...

Hi all I'm planning on making myself a very simple bench in the coming weeks. I've bought some low quality timber (75 x 75 and 50 x 100 PSE). I've also bought some castors which have a top plate of 105 x 80. So, my 70 x 70 and 44 x 94 pieces are generally too small for the castors. Any...

Hi all I have a Mafell P1CC with 800mm of track. I've also picked up 1600mm of Bosch track (I haven't opened it yet). Are there any other compatible tracks? Any other tools compatible with the Mafell track? Titan and Makita use the same track. Festool? Dewalt? Triton? Any...
