Perhaps a bit off topic, but what trunking are you using for your plugs on the wall?

Thanks for asking these questions Brian. I am looking at a very similar renovation myself right now. Except that the back wall of my 2-car garage is essentially one giant steel door. Need to think about how I am going to take that out and transition to a new external wall etc. The responses here...

Thanks, just curious as the US prices are listed. Always fascinating how these things are calculated.

They don't have prices listed on the Baileigh website. What are they asking for their entry cabinet saw?

I’ve been doing a lot of reading on this lately, but the caveat is that I am likely one of the least experienced folks on this board. Anyway, the Triton family of routers get awesome reviews more or less everywhere for both table mounting and hand use (the big TRA001 one gets knocked a bit on...

I have one of the predecessors of the 216, the TS250m-2. I got it second hand and *really* wish it had the extension and fence upgrade. I have the slider, and once I got it parallel and level (total PITA) it is excellent. I’ve not had a slider on a table saw before and I really like using it...

I think this falls out of your price range, but this seems a very good price on the 792 to me: https://www.dm-tools.co.uk/product.php/ ... ukRcS14W-o No idea about the retailer.

Thanks, I've been keeping an eye out. I'm not super hopeful given how long it's been since this saw was last sold at retail. Most likely these parts are being sold on as packages with existing saws. But who knows, maybe someone will blow a motor or something. (seems bad to wish misfortune on...

Thanks! I definitely saw that thread and was part of my decision to make the purchase. I will be doing the big mouth adapter for sure. I just need to settle on my dust collection strategy (currently using a vac + mask, but will eventually get a bigger system) I kind of wish I could get ahold of...

So I recently had a post debating more or less the same choice. In the end I got a great deal on a very lightly used Axminster TS250-m2 with sliding table. I’m really glad I did. It is so quiet, and the sliding table is a joy to use. The Dewalt is a fine tool, and the fence is great from what i...

This... this is a thing of beauty. But it is an exceptional idea to close off the dust extraction space. I’m in the process of remodelling a 2-car garage (it’s less nice than that sounds) and it would be trivial to build a wall around the dust collection. Will be saving this post for future...

Thanks for the detailed reply! It’s really helpful. The reality is that the DWE7491 would be stretching my budget already for this tool, and sadly can’t go to the range of a cabinet saw. I had really hoped to find one used at a price I can handle but I’m not having any luck. I’ll most likely end...

Looking to buy a table saw. I grew up in Canada, and so am quite partial to it vs. a bandsaw as my central cutting tool. Space isnt a factor, but I cant do three-phase. I’ve been watching the used market around me (Birmingham) for months but nothing of decent quality has shown up (or has lasted...

In the end decided to pass and wait to commit to better quality stand-alone machines.

Thanks. Appreciate the feedback.

Thanks. Still a bit on the fence about it. I’d like a better machine but the used market around me seems really slow.

Hi, I am new to woodworking in the UK and starting to add some tools to my shop to be able to make some small bits of furniture. I have been offered a Bernardo PT200 ED planer/thicknesser used for £200. The owner says it has been only very lightly used. As I'm pretty new to buying tools...

For what it’s worth I got it via the HUKD as well. Mine seems to be perfectly fine. I need to do some more rigorous testing, but I followed the Paul Sellers method and it was bang on. Kind of upsetting that a tool manufacturer will have that much variability batch-to-batch in a “precision...
