    Secret Santa 2023 photos only.

    Wow, finally got a bit of free time to post this after a hectic but fabulous day. My secret santa wasn't a secret due to the customs declarations we both had to fill out, I received a couple of bottles of Canadian maple syrup, a beautifully turned bowl made from Maple (SWMBO has claimed this...

    Mechanical pencil alternative

    I nearly bought a Tracer pencil at Screwfix live last weekend, the Mrs was with me and I couldn't justify paying £30 though, (it was the kit mind), I ended up buying an Ox mechanical pencil and am very happy with it, I still have 100s of carpenters pencils and screwfix pencils all over the workshop

    Screwfix Live 2016

    I went Saturday and Sunday, the reason being that as I exited on the Saturday, it appeared they had run out of free gifts so they compensated by giving me a voucher for £30 off! I went back on the Sunday and got a Bosch drill for £50 My youngest had a great day on both days mind, much cheaper...

    Cheap router table from Axminster

    Is the deflection you speak about on the insert itself? The phenolic insert plate supplied looks very similar to the one I got with my router table, I found it sagged under the weight of my Triton. I did buy a kreg insert but haven't got round to cutting a larger aperture in my table to...

    6m x 3m Log cabin build

    Question for the sparkys

    I believe anything in a kitchen must be fitted by a part P registered electrician, I was told by a sparky as I wanted to know what I could do legally and he said anything in kitchens/bathrooms/external had to be completed by a part P registered person, therefore this includes cookers..... shame...
