    Yes, I did. It works great. Just make sure you apply some anti-rust spray after getting them out of the water and cleaning them. I did my first (test) video showing how to clean saw blades with Vanish Oxi Action:

    Router Insert Plates - Bespoke?

    I was lucky that I have access to the flatbed router with the millers for aluminium and I did my own insert plate and insert rings. You can see how it turned out in the next video Installing a router in a table saw If I were you I would try to find some smaller precise engineering company that...

    Installing a router (Triton TRA001) in a table saw

    Yes, I have milled it myself in a company where I work. The actual aluminium plate was 10.1 - 10.5mm thick so I had to first plane it and then mill out the middle part and all the holes. If you need a drawing with the correct hole alignment for this router you can find it on my Patreon page. You...

    Removing grey underneath varnish

    Thank you, lads, for all the answers. I will strip it back to raw wood and apply 5-6 layers of yacht varnish again (with penetrating epoxy first if I get any cheap) and I will try to get some cover for this table in wintertime.

    Removing grey underneath varnish

    No problem I can use a belt sander to remove existing varnish as I am only working on top of the table. I won't remove varnish between planks. So you think it is no varnish applying technique but rather that wood is mouldy on the inside? Is there some other chemical that can stop this from...

    Hello everyone, As you could read in the post below, last year I built this garden table and I have finished top with three layers of Ronseal yacht varnish (undiluted). Now I have plenty of grey areas underneath this varnish and even a wood mould on one place where I made a dent by keeping...

    Painting and finishing pine

    Don't worry I'm not that easily offended :P I think that this wood was actually perfect because my intention was to use this table to see how will it behave and to be part of my learning curve.

    Painting and finishing pine

    Thanks for all the answers. When I painted those table legs I applied three undiluted coats. First one was very thin and second and third ones were fully applied (but not too thick). After that, I applied three coats of can spray car lacquer and it is holding very good so far (After one hot...

    Painting and finishing pine

    OK, great. One more question please :D Is it necessary to use sanding sealer and will it make a difference in the finished product (smoothness, glossiness...)?

    Painting and finishing pine

    Hi Mike, thanks for your advice. First, when I built this table I wanted to see how certain things behave and work with wood (because I did not have any experience) so that's why I used car lacquer and I read on few other forums that can be used without any problems. What would be your...

    Painting and finishing pine

    Hello everyone, Last year I built a garden table from scrap wood I found in company back yard and as you see on the picture below, I have sanded legs to 240, filled with P38 car body filler, sanded again, painted in three coats with woodies white paint and then put 3 coats of car clear lacquer...
