Like Peter I too had something similar to the Stanley that I think I may have gotten from Screwfix many years ago that I endured for far too long as the noise emitted was quite detrimental to matrimonial life let alone the irritation it provided to anyone unfortunate enough to share a similar...

“now that we do have all of those safety features it’s used as an excuse to penalise you as the vehicle will be more expensive to repair in the accident that it’s less likely to be involved in!” Before anyone else shoots this bit down, I appreciate that the supply chain for ev’s isn’t as...

I am so glad I did my own research and cost analysis of ownership of an ev instead of relying on the diatribe posted in here and within the general media. Apparently my car will cost far too much, will depreciate insanely, will be the cause of opening up another hole in the ozone layer and will...

Had my F3 for a few years now and managed to scoop up a dado set plus a really scary moulding block for it from a member on here a while ago. Mines the pre dro model. Have yet to use the dado in anger other than making a bunch of zero clearance table inserts and trying some calibration runs to...

Can’t begin to imagine how much that must’ve hurt and probably still does…hope the recovery is swift as can be and it doesn’t impact too much on his snooker game/violin playing.

Fat chance…when my pop shuffled off the ir tried to spanner my mom every year for his tax for 3 years on the trot!

We keep all the tubs our Chinese take away stuff comes in so they’re always my first port of call for that with the added bonus of having a lid too.

Being tight fisted , and not wanting to spend £2-300 on a router, I picked up my Bosch router on a trip to the US along with a suitable transformer for £150 , Both still work fine.

At the ripe age of 58 it seems to me that not a lot has changed since I left school. In my “social and modern studies” lessons we debated and postulated then on how to treat the different categories of drugs and how law and order should regulate their usage.

Risking overspill to another current thread , I own an ev..to be specific , a Skoda enyaq which I’m perfectly content with. If one peruses groups of like minded owners you inevitably come across individuals who have , what appear to be common failings with their vehicles. The most prolific fault...

Happy Chrimble everybodies 😉

Having personal experience of how ineffective the police can be I was determined to ensure the attached garage on my property was as secure as I could possibly make it. I have a full width roller sectional door that it is switched off at all times and has an additional deadbolt keeping it locked...

Prior to our house move last year we were quite happy with any of the individuals we’d used in the past 20 years or so but the move we made placed us out of reach of the majority of our known and trusted go to guys leaving us hunting locally. To say we’re unimpressed is being very generous as it...

“I’m a good cause and so’s my wife”…(fans of the flying circus will know) 🤣 As has been mentioned, the brands above aren’t run of the mill down to earth tools that are normally donated and as such potentially have significant value even if they aren’t in their best condition. I’m fairly sure you...

John Wick is so missing a trick there…I can just see him launching them 😂

We opted down the single story building (bungalow) route but interesting to see what can be done if you’re not scared of heights (ok,exercise) 🤣

Fed up of sets where the drill you need is the one you broke or misplaced I took the plunge a few years ago and opted for two sets, a standard titanium coated hss set and a slightly better 5% cobalt set, both in briefcase style cases with plenty of spares of the included sizes. For wood all I...

Can’t believe none of you asked if it’s for sale…if my Mrs hears there’s a machine that moves that much she’s sat on it grinning like a Cheshire Cat. 🤣

Did the same, my previous single garage had four led tubes with boarded walls painted white but now have a 6m square garage boarded with unpainted osb3 and illuminated by 6 panels 600x600mm. Could maybe use more but any area with a specific need for light is lit well enough.

me too although in my case due to the inadequate capacity of one’s bladder’s 😂
