Can you think of something you are making 'just for her' that you needed it for?

ah, my other hobby... (I'm a signalman on the SVR, unemployed at the moment as the north end of the line is still closed after being washed away - trains only running Kidderminster to Bewdley at the moment, which I'm not qualified for). Have been on the rhdr a few times & my small son thinks...

To keep fit I ride a bike. I recently wanted a front light. So looked on Ebay. Found something suitable looking - cost £15 + £6 p&p. Found the seller had a 'normal' online shop where the same light was for sale at £20 incl p&p. OK so only a pound difference, but somethings aren't always as...

Nice table gedereco. I particularly like the way you've used the (bargain priced) tng for the top.

Nice. I wonder how big the A-series is under the bonnet? Judging by the exhaust pipe there isn't something else shoehorned under there.

That's a Fox 36524. I've got one & am pleased with it so far. For me it was a toss up between the fox & a triton. Fox won because I managed to get one locally (delivered to my work) for £250 (and cost was/is a serious consideration for me). If you do go for one, make sure you've got the...

Anybody with Sky TV - the race is being shown live on Motors TV (ch 413) - and yes, that's the whole 24 hours - along with all 8 hours of qualifying (Wed/Thu evening)

Depends on where in Edgbaston you're working too. I work at the University & at 5:00 it can take getting on for half an hour to get half a mile down the road. It might get worse before it gets better (new hospital being built). Local train service (to University) is usually good but can go...

OK, Fox manual doesn't seem to have parts numbers (just a numbered list & an exploded diagram). You might see from previous threads that the Fox manual is somewhat lacking. I can scan relevant pages for you if you want. As for a dealer - try Corroy Products in Walsall (where I bought mine...

Will the equivalent part of a Fox 36-524 (clone) fit? That's a current saw for which spares may be (more) readily available. Bought my Fox from Corroy Products (in Walsall) & they mentioned the availability of spares.

I've not had a sliding table long, but have very quickly started to wonder what I did without it but again, it's a space hog (especially as my workshop has to double up as a garage)

Just got a s/h Kity 432. Would have liked something bit bigger but simply don't have the space.

I've got an earlex in the garage & it works fine, if a little noisy. Wish I'd bought one with a pto though. :Edit: One thing I particularly like is the large(r) bore pipe (58mm?) which will plug straight into the dust port of my Trend router table. iirc that was an extra

I've got a HD recorder & it works pretty much like a video recorder. If you want to record different sattelite channels, then you have to program those to switch channels seperately via the sky box. Can be a bit of a faff as it's twice the set up. From what I've seen sky+ is much simpler...

Used Axminster lots of times. Never had a problem - goods have always arrived promptly, complete etc. Once I ordered 3 castors & they rang me up to check the quantity was correct (& not a typo). Nice touch that. Have been pleased with the selection of yellow/white tools I've got for the...

I agree with lurker. Not used Rutlands (so didn't vote, obviously) - on 3 counts - a) what I've read here b) price c) Axminster Might give them a go now if/when appropriate

I've been considering a sub to Shopnotes for a couple of months so might take the plunge now...

Too late, they've already closed down.

Have you tried Pages in Northfield (Church Road). It's years since I've been there so don't know what services they provide these days (even though I live about half a mile from there now).

I'm on holiday in Devon Easter week, so might drop in on the way home on Saturday...
