Mark Hi. I use Sussex Sharpening services. Found then on the Net. They have done saw and planer blades and spiral router cutters for me in the past. And they collect and return for a nominal charge (I live in surrey). I think that their service is excellent (and before you ask, have...

Fourth show I’ve attended during the last 7 years or so; seems like its getting smaller and smaller each year. Admittedly, I went there to play with specific products........but couldn’t seem to find a nail gun worth looking at. Closing thoughts Hurrah……someone is finally shipping cyclone dust...

Chris Fancied one of them for a while. Obviously, preferably, the metric version. Could be very interested. What kind of a number do you have in mind? regards SC

Yes. The third order was also discounted. :lol: And to give credit where it is due....The original orders were delivered yesterday. One of them was incorrectly packed and also had some damaged bits. first time I had an order go wrong in the 5 or 6 years of using Screwfix. Phoned Screwfix...

Folks Broke an order up into three parts and placed it around 11 p.m last night. Have just got confirmations for the first two. And as the man said, £20 off each one. Assuming that the third comes through the same, will have saved £60 on a £180 order. :D :D :D Thanks Lemonjeff

Finally getting back to woodworking a year after moving house. :D However have to dispose of a few bits before SWMBO give me the marching orders. :oops: 1 Scheppach TS 2000 with all the bits and 2 Electra Beckum THKS 315. Both in good nick + a couple of freshly sharpened blades...

Great thread. My contribution. I’m a chartered Civil Engineer;. Spent the first thirteen years post Uni helping the then newly privatised water companies dig up bits of East and West coast Scotland, North Yorkshire, Devon, Cornwall and most of the Isle of Wight. Got fed up doing dirty water...

Great thread Likes sharp steel Jigs / machines that work accurately time after time Dislikes my many good intentions having to rush / impatience / inaccuracy; all equals shoddy workmanship sneak one in.... :shock:...three putt bogeys SC

Hi Darren At our last place (which sounds similar to yours), I made some storage boxes to go under the stairs. Boxes were made from MDF, with the same pine cladding to the face as the rest of the stairs. Boxes were mounted on castors and pulled out into a carpeted hallway. Was surprised...

SVB Coming in at the tailend…. I had a laminate floor in my last workshop (tour of it in online somewhere). Really Cheap stuff from B&Q, reckon it came is at around £5 / sqm laid inc underlay. Floor construction was 4x2’s with 75mm polystyrene slabs btwn overlain by chipboard T&G. After...

Putting the post together was another opportunity to review where it had all started from. I am pleased in a nice kinda way with the eventual result. Picking up on some of the earlier comments: Had a whole lot of materials left over from doing the internals of the house. :wink: Obvious to...

Chris: Unfortunately time travel remains a concept. The existing workshop (which you probably read about elsewhere) will have reverted to an empty shell with bare walls by weekend. The new owners of our house take possession in approximately 8 days and have designated the shed a ‘chill out...

This post is not strictly woodworking (but in relates to a major facilitator thereof) so apologies in advance if it upsets the pure woodies. I am thinking about building a new shed. The actual construction isn’t probably going to happen for a little while. Nevertheless but the mere thought...

Apologies for the large photo's. I'm learning website stuff fast. Should be a bit more manageable now. And many thanks for the kind words. Very pleased with the way that the shed turned out; width excepted. Looking forward to constructing the next one, and then getting back to other projects...

Sorry folks. Created the message last night using images uploaded to the imagestation website. It all seemed to preview so well, and everything is in the public directory. Logging on directly this morning, there seemed to be problems viewing some of the pages. The imagestation website perhaps...

Apologies in advance if I don't get this right and its too long or something, its my first time of tying to upload images, so i am still learning. I thought I'd do a little tour of my shed, especially since it it'll all be gone within a couple of weeks when we move house. Story kind'a goes like...

Guys & Gals Rest assured I am already dreaming of the next 60m2 shed which I think is is about the optimum size for a home workshop. Unfortunately having invested so much time in setting up the existing shed and then acquiring some half decent tools, I was looking forward to doing some real...

Asked the question a wee while ago re hand planes. Like to say many thanks to all that responded (and given me the benefit of their years of experience). Following much deliberation and some trailing at shows etc, I finally bit the bullet and converted good intentions into cold hard steel...

hi Tim I have the LS 25 super system. Personally, think that its awesome. Had to make a seemingly enormous router table to go with it, but can honestly say that it has subsequently proved worthwhile. At the time of purchase, the dollar was even weaker against the pound that it is now, and I...
