    Photographing work in customers house - a violation or not?

    I wonder if saying that £15 is too much is just a bullying tactic to put you on the back foot from the start?

    Which "Stanley" knife? Recommendations please.

    Like many here I have accumulated quite a few stanley knives over the years, but the one I like the best is the fatmax snap off model mainly because of its heft and greater length which feels good in the hand (of course, it can't take hooked blades which would be a problem for some):-...

    Bridge City Hand Planes

    Thing is, stanley/ bailey more or less nailed it in terms of functionality but sometimes it's just nice to have nice stuff. Is my clifton No7 better than the stanley it replaced? No, but I get great pleasure from owning and using it. Having said that, I don't think I would ever want to own one...

    Which 250mm siliding mitre saw?

    I have the makita and would recommend it assuming you're okay with the handle orientation. Dust collection is appalling tho'

    Which 250mm siliding mitre saw?

    I cannot help but think that if you bought one with a max cut of 400mm you'd still want that extra 10mm. That'd be the case with me anyhow ☺

    do you own a festool baseball cap?

    I think stumpy used to be funnier back then (when this vid was made). Seems to take himself a lot more seriously these days.

    do you own a festool baseball cap?

    I'm genuinely not sure what the point of this thread is. Are we taking the **** out of Festool, or stumpy nubs, both, or neither? As I say, this is a genuine question, not sarky or anything

    Rosewood that destroys edges

    "I share the sentiment about telecasters, though. They look cheap compared to a guitar with a carved top. The first one I ever bought, I wanted to find something unlikeable about it because it looked cheap, but they sound great and they're really lively feeling, and they play well" I understand...

    road cycling

    Flying haggis- does the VERY odd cycling event really impact your life that much? Yes, it can be a pain but in the scheme of things the effect is minimal. I used to race veterans league races (until I had my neck fractured) and their races always had a sort of rolling road block set up. I mean...

    Battery Drill Driver

    You're not understanding my point. I use a drill driver, have a whole bunch of power tools. I'm not saying that there's no place for a cordless power tool in what is primarily a hand tool workshop. I don't know if the OP even classes himself a a hand tool woodworker. My problem is that the hand...

    Battery Drill Driver

    Fair enuff. It just frustrates me that so many people including your dear self don't seem to understand what a hand tool is; that includes the mods on this forum since they seem happy to leave threads about power and machine tools in the hand tools section. Simple fact is this: if it has an...
