    Is it Morticer or Mortiser?

    I think it should be morticer… but mortiser seems to be used more often worldwide.. less difference in the Uk

    Sauter Shop and import taxes

    I bought some things from Germany a few weeks ago… I had to pay VAT on top at 20% on import but the people I bought from TOOK OFF the 19% German tax…. Sounded and seemed good…. But then I got a bill with handling charges on top from UPS which I had to pay plus the delivery took nearly 3 weeks...

    Planer thicknesser purchase advice please

    Have a look @simonbowlerltd he chose an SP300C with spiral planer block a while back as one of the heavier 1ph spiral planer thicknessers, mainly for planing oak… he uses it to its max and has planed thousands of linear meters on it in that time and is over the moon. Have a look at some of his...

    Air source Heat Pumps any good?

    It was part of an extension rebuilding with lots of new windows so it was a little hard to quantify in flat terms. I doubled the square footage of the house and reduced the heating bill… and the house feels warmer.

    Air source Heat Pumps any good?

    I live in an old timber frame house with extensions. I spent a lot of time improving the insulation, fitting high performance sashes and other household improvements when I took the plunge of my first ASHP 10 years ago, getting rid of an lpg boiler. My first ashp only heated the water to 50...

    SCM Super Router Refurbishment

    They only stopped manufacture of these 4 years ago. There is another company in Italy who appears to have taken over their production if you get stuck but most parts are standard. Let me know if you need the contact and I will have a root through my files

    Which PT????

    Record and Electra machines are both made in China, spares should be available No spares available for kity machines (they also had special blades on some models) I would suggest try to find a used Record Power or Startrite machine. I think used Sedgwick PTs are now commanding a higher price.

    Spindle moulder cutter blocks

    40mm euro blocks will accept 50mm cutters and limiters. Be very careful with the serrated block… it is designed to be used on a mechanically fed machine and has a higher chance of kickback.… and greater injuries. There were some experiments on injuries using pigs tails.(not pleasant) The old...

    Tersa compatible thicknessers

    Spiral / helical cutter blocks are much more popular over the last couple of years. The demand for Tersa system has really slowed right down. The spiral system gives a fantastic finish, low noise, long blade life etc. Tersa is imho a great system compared to traditional planer blades, but not as...
