My workshop is poorly insulated but as it is rented I can't do much about it. It gets quite cold and as low down as 2c. I am looking to get a heater in to bring the temperature up when applying finish or glue but I wanted to make sure I got one that was safe and wasn't going to be a fire hazard...

I plan to get some better chisels a new plane and a few other bits in an order that will end up being between £500 - £600 and was wondering if anyone has ever asked if they will do a deal on this kind of order and whether it was worth asking?

After years of good work my original conveyor broke in August which lead me to buy a replacement from bnd abrasives which wasn't a great experience and it just wasn't good quality and has failed. I have tried googling but keep coming up short so if any one has any suggestions I would be very...

Someone has asked me to add to face grain strips to a unused end grain cutting board they have to make it wider. I have haven't worked on an end grain cutting board before and was unsure whether wood movement would be an issue?

Hello all, I have decided it's time to get a grinder as I am tired of the painfully slow method of hand sharpening a new primary bevel on my chisels and planes. I have been looking around and can't decide what to go for and was wondering if people have some suggestions? I am looking for...

I don't know if this is the correct place to ask this but has anyone bought from trade-hinges.co.uk before?

Does anyone know where to get metric cove router bits that don't cost an insane amount? I'm looking for 6mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm. I didn't realise it would be this hard to find.

I am looking to get a disc sander to clean up the edges of frames, boxes and circular objects. My budget is around £200, although I am happy to wait and save if there is a noticeable jump in quality. I had a look on Axminster at the Axminster Craft AC300DS and was wondering if anyone had any...

This is probably the biggest thing I've done and would be made out of 30mm finish Yellow Pine, I was asking for £1850 which I thought was reasonable. This included materials, making it, delivering it and assembling it. I was told that the price was totally unreasonable and wanted to see if I was...

I was planning on making a cutting board with some off cuts but when I machined the cherry I could see it had gum pockets in it. I was wondering if this was still safe to use?

Firstly apologises if this is the wrong place, I couldn't see where else to put this. I checked the list in the pinned topic but it only had one website. I have been struggling for a long time, almost 3 years, to find a decent source of hardwood. I've either gone to Jewsons at the top of town...
