    Carpentry in the North Pennines?

    I think she'd like to be! Why do you ask? Thanks for all the info on here, my boys are nine and three, and their friendships and schooling are a big consideration for me. We've got a good option coming up for my nine year-old's secondary education, which I'd be loathe to leave behind, and this...

    Carpentry in the North Pennines?

    My thought was somewhere in the vicinity of Barnard Castle, which I'm conscious would be getting close to as rural as it gets (which is really what I'm after...). Thanks for all the suggestions so far, it's all good food for thought!

    Carpentry in the North Pennines?

    My wife and I are considering a move to the North Pennines, and I'm trying to figure out whether it's feasible or not. We live in Oxford, and I design, make and fit bespoke MDF/plywood fitted furniture, such as cupboards, wardrobes, bookcases, understairs pull-outs, floating shelves etc.. I...

    MFT sacrificial top

    Wow, I hadn't realised this was all going on in the thread! Thanks for all the responses, there is a lot of valuable information here. Some context: I currently have the DeWalt 745L, which I bought back in 2014. It's been a punchy little saw, and has worked pretty well. The issue that I have...

    1400mm pull-out wardrobe rail

    A client has asked me to replace a wardrobe for them, and a strange quirk of the space is one of the carcasses backs onto a built-in cupboard space (as was). This means that the space is 1450mm deep. I'm looking for a wardrobe pull-out rail along the lines of Wardrobe Pull Out Hanging Rail 800...

    MFT sacrificial top

    Hello all, I have a mobile workshop set up in the back of my Luton van, and I'd like to upgrade it to having an MFT style workbench. I have a 12mm birch ply bench in there currently, which is approximate 3000mm x 700mm, and my current thought is to buy a sacrificial top (perhaps 9mm thick) that...

    Metal plate depth setting gauge for routers?

    Thank you everybody for your input, I'll look into all the different options that are out there. I've been using the time-honoured approach of using the item itself in the router turret stop, but my employee finds this challenging so I was just posting to find out if there was a easier way out...

    Metal plate depth setting gauge for routers?

    Hello all, Does anyone know of an off-the-shelf steel/aluminum plate depth setting gauge for routers? I want to be able to quickly set up my plunge router to cut a fairly accurate 1.0mm hinge recess. The kind of thing I'm looking for would work on the same principle as , but be made of metal...

    Shelf pin drilling/routing system

    Hello all, thanks for all the input, it's been really helpful! I've tried to read up on all the information you've given (and followed the various rabbit holes that they lead to). I had no idea that making shelf pin holes could be done in so many ways! I've been looking carefully at my set-up...

    Shelf pin drilling/routing system

    Hello all, this is my first post. I make built-in furniture, and up until now I've been using Shelf Support Strip, Screw Fixing, Steel, 10 x 5 mm, Intervals 15 mm - Häfele U.K. Shop. In my opinion they look smart and have generally worked well. However, they do make decorating more difficult...
