My wife's parents used to live there and I could never work out how it was said. The locals pronounce it Woolzery........dom

Hi Doug. Apologies but I did have to suppress a giggle, but seriously. I've always fitted them with three bits on the frame just to make things look even. But logic says which ever way round they're fitted the weight of the door in relation to the frame and such won't change so I would think...

Well, im sitting here trying to work out a pricing structure for my wooden clocks, wooden kitchen stuff and coat hooks for my first craft sale tomorrow. Going on that pricing I'll only have to do one show and I'll be retiring on Sunday morning............dom

Cheers Andy, thank you very much. Off to the shed to make some little ply and pin supports..............dom

Not sure if anyone has any ideas, but here goes. Ages ago I was watching a YouTube video about wood working and in it this chap had some little caltrop type things to support timber bits off the bench when spraying a finish on them. Needless to say I can't find anything about them on the web so...

Absolutely flippin hilarious, the rest of the family are looking at me with resigned looks on their faces as I sit there crying with laughter. But I feel so much better for it. Best bits fight scene and the brush stuck on his chin and the removal of it. Now I know what I'm doing for the rest...

I must admit that was my inclination, as I don't fancy all that over hang...........dom

Afternoon all, I've just ordered some new bands for my Record bs250 as last one snapped a few days ago. Now I've ordered a Tuffsaws 1/4" and 3/8" for general/small stuff , but also got a 1/2" fast cut to rough cut out 2" thick stock blanks. Last time I set the saw was with a 3/8 band with the...

PS, as I haven't found a post edit button yet, I'll say that as it progresses I'm sure I'll put up photos.............dom

Cheers for the info Bob, it's sounds like a concoction that I used to use years ago the only difference was that I used to add a bit of BLO to it. If my memory worry serves it did give a very nice finish. With regards to the coloured laminate you can't seem to get it in the UK, which is a...

Afternoon Bob, hopefully it should keep its colour as for the majority of the time it is kept in a gun cupboard in the wardrobe away from prying eyes. I take it poly gloss is a polyurethane varnish but never come across wipe on varnish, I must be a bit old fashioned :D The crosmans run on Co2...

Morning Bob. I just love the colour of padauk and the times I've used it it has started very bright but has finally toned down a bit after finish is applied. I've got a Crosman 1740 that I'm going put their skeleton stock like the one below on but use padauk as the insert in the butt :shock...

Thank you Custard, much appreciated and seem reasonably priced (I think!) :D ..........dom

After a bit of advice from those in the know. I'm thinking of putting a Padauk timber insert into a skeleton stock for my pistol but am having trouble finding a supplier that does smaller sizes. Am after couple of bits that are about 3/4"x6"x14". The bit for the fore-end is easier to source...

I'm not a prolific poster, but I do know which I find easier to read when I do visit. The pale blue/gray boxes and text are far more restful to read, also aides readability for those that suffer from dyslexia as the use of pale backgrounds has has been known about for donkeys years. So, +1...

So sorry to hear the terrible news Brian, my heart goes out to you. Stay strong...............dom

I've been ignoring the letters telling me about fitting one for ages. I personally don't trust the big brother intrusion and the nail in the coffin was when the data lady came round to our school to check on our wireless metre readings manually every six weeks (oh the irony =D> =D> ), she said...

What a cracking looking place, every home should have one..................Dom

Many congratulations, an awesome milestone. =D> =D> =D> Puts my nearly silver into perspective. All the best........dom

Recycling a good, especially when it looks like that. Nice find...........dom
