Just got one of these of ebay to get into making some picture frame mouldings and i thought it would have a 1/2" collet. When i measured though, the internal diameter is only 6mm and change, which is about 0.25" ...so this would be 1/4" and not 1/2" as i was expecting. So my question is ...can...

Hi. I would like to be able to hook my 100mm dust hose to my DW745 - TYPE 4 table saw, which has an outside diameter of 64.5mm. All the dewalt adapters seem to be for stepping down to smaller shop vac sizes. Any advice would be most gratefully appreciated :mrgreen:

I'm building a Picnic Bench from 2x6 / 2x4 tanalized softwood and was hoping for some advice on sealing all the cuts (especially the legs) to prevent them from wicking moisture. I've read that ppl use epoxy resin, but some state that plain old pva is good enough. The bench will be sitting on...

Looking for some advice on buying my 1st router. I did search in here but the closest result was back in 2004 so here i am. Not too sure what i will be doing, other than detailing pic frames etc to start with, hopefully going on from there. Should i be starting off with a 1/4" machine ...

...Ye i know, it sounds like a racing event that we'll never get tickets to. But really it's a dust hood for a mitre saw :shock: http://www.rousseauco.com/rousseau-5000.html They have these in the USA, but i can't find them, or anything similar, in the UK market. These would be ideal for me...

Hi, I've never owned nor used a scroll saw before, but i have watched a few interesting videos. Now i may have a reason to get one :D I'm trying to renovate an old cast end bench which has some decorative detailing in the back rest. I'm trying to work out if these pieces were originally made on...

Hi, i do apologize if this is a nooby question. I did search, but found i got more confused. I wish to connect my Technology Supplies TS2000 dust extractor with 2M of 100mm flexi hose to my SIP 12" Sliding Mitre saw, which has a 40mm OD outlet. I see many reducer kits online but couldn't find...

Hi, I'm in a bit of a quandary, as i have been offered a good deal on a table saw some miles away. but i have no means to pick it up myself. If anyone here has any advice on these types of couriers - The Good The bad & The Ugly - i would be most grateful.

Hi, are there any sliding mitre saws out there that will cut trenches / rebates that are actually worth a dam? I realize that this kind of activity is prob best performed on a decent table saw, preferably with a dado stack. Sadly i don't have either as yet, and the sip 12" slider i do have is...

Just Joined so Big Hi :D Should have done it ages ago :roll: I'm hoping to restore an old "cast end" bench that we picked up on ebay. Trouble is, i'm not sure what species i'm dealing with. I've attached some photos of some of the original pieces, which hopefully, someone here may help...
