A calculator and a stapler are quite large items to try and fit into a desk tidy. If they must be included then I would probably make a tray with cylinders for the normal stuff.

About a year ago I had a large Walnut tree (approx. 2ft diameter) cut down in my garden and recently a man with a JCB ripped the stump out of the ground. I do a mixture of turning and box making and I want to cut this up in the best way get the best grain. I've seen videos showing a lot of...

You need to state a price.

A while ago I wanted to order 4 bandsaw blades and a couple of other things from them for international delivery and there was a minimum order value to get free delivery. They only had 2 blades in stock so I waited a few weeks but they never had more than 2. I emailed them and they said I could...

OK, thanks for the ideas. I'll explore the metal inserts suggestion. I was 50/50 on whether to make a box or a turned container and I was probably going to go with a box just because it would be easier to make 3 that were alike. Turning tends to throw in surprises in terms of 'design features'.

I've never made a chair so maybe I don't understand the question but why would you require flexibility in the M&T joint? In any case, I would imagine that the amount of flex would be very small but would it not encourage the joint to open up?

That did cross my mind but they are already quite heavy and an odd oval shape.

My wife has requested that I make a set of coffee, tea, sugar containers to replace the perfectly good shop bought ceramic ones that are currently in use. While giving this a good thinking about it occured to me that keeping humidity out and occasionally cleaning them might prove troublesome...

The breaker types are C25 for the boiler circuit and all the others including the incoming phases are B type. The cable for the boiler circuit has the text 5G4 mm2 on it which suggests it is 4mm2 and not 6mm2. I'm not in the UK and I know nothing about Hungarian regs but the boiler is on it's...

It's definitely an overload as it has happened when an extra device is used such as the microwave when the dishwasher is running. It has happened 3 times in the last 2 weeks and nothing has been changed although the dishwasher is getting used more than it used to. The boiler provides the central...

Something curious occured and I wondered if anyone on here could offer some logical explanation. A radial circuit has been tripping in my house and it seems unusual to me. The circuit is for the kitchen sockets which has the fridge freezer as well as a second small freezer, dish washer...

I don't set any goals. I make whatever I make as either a requirement of house maintenance/furniture or gifts which I wholly enjoy. The stuff I make just for my own pleasure is based on a whim of thought and my design process is so loose as to barely exist. I endeavour to try something new all...

If you mean kindling for when the battery gets a bit hot then loads. :)

One of them is just a featherboard, what's the problem with them?

I have the same lathe and it's great, absolute bargain.

A small cherry bowl with inlay and a little carving, a walnut pot with a celtic knot carving and a carved walnut garlic pot. Happy holidays to all.

That's very pretty. Can I ask you where you source the hardware as I think I'm ready to tackle my own guitar build? I've seen a few kits online at around £45 but I was expecting it to be more expensive than that.

I've used this site for a couple of things. I've not looked for the pattern you have but it might be there. https://suncatcherstudio.com/

It's not a contraction of 'I'm not' as the 'I' is missing. If you said 'I amn't' it would be more correct but it still sounds like you didn't bother too much with school.

It's a good price but bear in mind that these gouge sizes are meant for larger carving projects.
