Yes but I dont pay screwfix price for them! £60, ouch.

60t is very fine but a track saw should still do 22mm of maple with it I'd have thought... The deviation is very likely to be due to a poor blade. I'd go with a replacement Freud. For 22mm, 40t would likely be OK, but without knowing your particular saw, it's hard to be certain. I have...

Sold pending the usual.

Price drop bump.

Now sold New. 10 discs. £5.00 posted within UK.

No probs, you're most welcome. I hope they can help you out.

I just found this whilst browsing youtube, as you do. What I'd call a good effort, to say the least. Thought someone here might appreciate it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZySOgMzOY0Q&list=RDZySOgMzOY0Q

You could go ultra posh and use Lifx LED strips. They are very good and you can control them via a smartphone or Google Home...."turn the bandsaw lights on" lol

Nice write up. I would echo your comments. http://www.thetoolboxscotland.co.uk/ These guys do the long fence extrusions. I bought mine a year or so ago. It's the only place I could find in the UK that sold them from stock. I'm sorry I don't recall the price but it wasn't as high as £72...

How deep is the groove you're trying to cut? Making multiple passes may help. Clamp a piece of scrap wood to the mitre fence as a stop block to ensure you hit the same spot on your workpiece each time. If you chisel it, hand pressure should be enough assuming your chisels are sharp. My...

I can believe it. Further strengthens the case for self insuring. There really needs to be a proper legal framework for insurance charges, but there never will be, not in this country.

Fair one. I feel like giving them a call just to see what their position is. Not going to claim this time but it would be interesting to know if in principle, they would be prepared for us to DIY a repair if we simply provide the invoice for the flooring. My gut tells me no, because its in...

Sorry, Yandles.

Will try that first. I reckon its blunt though, it's that new tape amazon started using I think, the reinforced stuff. I deal with a lot of parcels at times and it cant be very kind to blades to be cutting that sort of thing. Probably should get myself a simple box opener instead.

I've used the aluminium stuff. Over time it distorts around where its clamped to the extraction port of a machine and the air seal just gradually becomes worse. It's also a pain to get on and off if you need to, due to the distortion. Once it's damaged its hard to reform it. Then theres the...

Hey Jacob. It's just that the bevel is so fine, finer even than my little veg knives, i didnt know how i'd maintain the angle. Hadn't thought of a kitchen type sharpener to be honest, I just have a steel which I figured would wreck it. Will give one a try, thanks.

It's about protecting each other from outside commercial interference. I'd hope that if you were ever suspicious of a post, you'd question it openly too. It's not a personal attack to do so, its community spirited. If nobody ever did, the forum would be full of commercial spam masquerading...

We could have claimed on the insurance but to lay this floor ourselves will hopefully cost about £500 or so. That vs. a circa £2k insurance claim. I just didnt fancy paying a grossly inflated premium next year for the sake of £500.

Very interesting posts gents. Taken on board. Loved the stories too, made me chuckle. We have laminate in a couple of rooms upstairs but to be honest, it cost more than the wood flooring we had downstairs as its very thick and durable (office and kids room). The super cheap stuff is what I...

There are plenty of people, not saying you, who make a living doing exactly that, writing spurious reviews and before they do, they also build up a profile because to do it if it was their first and only post would result in an instant ban. It's pretty common tactic these days because the old...
