It would probably be just as cheap to frame some T&G. It would weigh less, last much longer as well as look more aesthetically pleasing.

All those parts can be made by hand, but I would go with the above suggestion of repurposing some old chairs initially to see if your idea works. If it does, then you need to run a costing based on the volume you think you can sell.

The CRT MK3 is a perfectly workable small workshop table or portable table. I used one many years ago and achieved good results machining smaller items.

I will be offering a range of pergolas. The vast majority will be Oak, but I will also offer some in Red Cedar. To be honest, most of this work will utilise a cross-grain chain morticer outdoors, but some work may also be undertaken in the workshop.

PM with the details please

The user guide I looked at stated the machine would handle up to 25mm in softwood, but I will follow the advice of doing a couple of passes with a smaller chisel as it sounds like awfully hard work using the large chisel. I will also be investing in a cross grain chain morticer for large outdoor...

I have just acquired an old Sedgewick Morticer that comes with a small collection of chisels (max 1/2 inch). I would like to get a 16mm for hardwood and a 25mm for softwood. Can anyone recommend where I can purchase good-quality sets?

Hi, Yes, I am afraid it is sold to Alex, subject to me packing it up so he can arrange collection. I will change the topic to show sold.

I'd go with either ProverXL 4030 v2, as suggested by ScaredyCat above or Foxalien XE-PRO with the linear rail upgrade.

I have a box that will be big enough for the crown. I can bubble wrap and then glad wrap the framework, which I think is the only viable way of shipping it without involving a pallet. How does that sound?

It is pretty bulky. I could break it down into smaller parts but I won't have a box large enough to put it into. Let me take a look at it tomorrow to see how viable it would be. If I can find a box big enough to protect the crown then we may be in business.

Axminster professional crown guard. Fully adjustable and should fit most table saws. Will need to be collected from the Mablethorpe area (you could combine with an ice cream on the sea front!). Can be flat packed. £150 ono

I second the lock mitre.

I’m not sure if that will work. If I remember back in my school days I was told electricity will always take the path of least resistance but don’t quote me on that as I may be completely wrong.

I have a Laguna F3 with dado stack. I also invested in a crown guard, which is a must if you want to cut Dado's on a table saw.

All my pro cordless are Makita. I have yet to have a single unit fail over the many years I have been using them.

I lived in Cornwall (Perranporth) many years ago. I do miss Cornwall.

I just upgraded my workshop to LED and my gosh.... what a difference. It must be at least 50% brighter and a much nicer cooler light temperature. I should have done so long ago. Good riddance to those fluorescent tubes.
