Clean and wax has always worked for me. Dunno what else to suggest.

Hi Woodshave, I've owned this saw for well over a year and it has been faultless. The performance and accuracy has been great but has been improved by my purchasing a couple of new blades to replace the included general purpose blade. Dust extraction from the cabinet is a little poor but this...

Hi, more bling than mine but they're great machines, you'll love it. I recently purchased a couple of Freud blades. One for laminates and sheet materials, the other for ripping. I didn't bother with a cross cut blade as I tend to use my mitre saw for cross cutting or, for wider cuts, a...

You could try this company in Belgium. They show the router table extension as currently in stock... Tendotools I've not ordered from them as I got my table saw via Woodford but, being in the EU, Tendotools may be prepared to ship to the UK. Expensive though! As I already had a Festool...

I guess it depends on what you want to do with it. I bought a Harvey last year and built a fold-down outfeed table and a cross-cut sled which works very well and suits most of my needs. I use a decent track saw for cutting large sheets. The Harvey is a great saw, I wish I'd bought it years...

How about this..? http://www.firstcastors.com/en/copy-of-super-low-level-nylon-swivel-castor-with-rubber-coated-floor-plate-40mm2

Moonsafari69 got it spot on in his response. The Xcalibur can't operate from a 13amp socket, it will trip the MCB every time you start it up. When I was waiting for delivery of my Xcalibur earlier this year, I had an electrician review my garage wiring. He recommended that to avoid...

I bought this compressor, very pleased with it... https://www.amazon.co.uk/241184-Silent-Compressor-Garage-Clinic/dp/B00KDEVR9G/ref=pd_cp_263_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=3SEF09YJ3G853M3E9H50 and this nailer/stapler... https://www.toolstation.com/shop/p98852?searchstr=nai I was so impressed...

Is the 16 amp MCB a type C? It's likely that a domestic type B has been fitted so you will need to change it as it won't tolerate the additional power (above 16 amp) required when the saw starts up which quickly reduces once normal running. My Harvey is happily running on a 16 amp type C...

Got my AC400 from Yandles, very happy with it... http://www.yandles.co.uk/record-power-ac400-two-stage-air-filter-with-remote-3-speeds-and-time-delay/p5004

I've had my HW110 for a few months now and wouldn't swap it. I have the dado stack and also added a router table in the wing. See here - https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/forums/festool-router-cms-of-insert-in-table-saw-wing-t106122.html I can't speak for the AW10, but if you have the extra dosh...

To save floor space I wanted to add a router to my table saw wing but really wanted to use my Festool OF2020 router which, unlike the Bosch or Triton routers, does not have an inbuilt 'lift'. However, the Festool CMS-OF router insert does have a lift but is much larger than the usual standard...

Having just installed the 3HP Harvey/Xcalibur 10" from Woodford's two weeks ago, I can only say that I'm extremely happy with its performance and would recommend it to anyone looking for this type of saw. It will even accept an 8" dado stack if that's your thing. It has more than enough power...

Ah, I see. Mine already had the socket installed to the cabinet. Here is a photo I just took of the socket with the cover removed, as you can see the blue is connected to the L/+ terminal. I hope this helps! Cheers, Jerry

I had a dedicated 16 amp ('commando' socket) supply installed in my workshop specifically for this saw. I then purchased a compatible extension lead from Toolstation and simply plugged it in. Are you saying that your saw does not have the commando socket? I'll put up some photos in a bit...

Mine arrived this morning. I've spent the day assembling and setting it up. I also had an excellent experience with Woodford but my dado stack will not be here for a couple of weeks as, according to Woodford, these were shipped in a separate container. It's not a problem as it gives me time...

Years ago I had a cheap, b&q table saw with a relatively thin extending aluminium table that flexed. It served its purpose but was never that accurate or that easy to set up and, annoyingly, it didn't have a standard mitre slot. The included, non-standard mitre gauge was a sloppy fit which...

If you don't have an accurate square to hand then you can simply set it up by placing a couple of dogs in front of the fence and then use these to align either fence using the adjusting screws (as explained in the manual) to permanently fix these settings. As others have said in this thread, if...

Go for it but fit a decent new blade and you will be very happy I'm sure. I have the HBS310, a new Axcaliber blade and careful set up and it's been great.

It would be good to see some photos of what others have done. I'm about to re-jig my garage workshop and want to fit a permanent dust system. It looks as though the brown, underground drainage pipe and fittings may be the most cost effective solution overall, along with home-made plywood blast...
