I'd be interested in the table saw if it'll break down easily to go in a car?

Replied to you pm, but just in case - all sorted now, thanks tho.

Surely it's only timber as it's falling? Tree > Timber > Lumber?

Thanks chaps.

Sorted, thanks

Check out a cash and carry or similar that supplies takeaway restaurants. You can get all sorts of shapes and sizes of plastic pots in quantity very cheaply. Lids are available as well obviously, which could be useful...

So ideally we store sawn lumber flat, to keep it flat. I'm aware that leaning it at an angle is less than ideal, but if it's stored completely vertical and straight is that an improvement on at an angle?

"now I need to chamfer this 18" board. I've set up my router station with a 45deg cutter and a stop block"

Yep, you're right. As I said, if I was doing this again I'd do so. Usually I only use it with the mitre saw and pillar drill, and to clean up any dust from hand working on my bench. The times it's clogged have been when long splinters turn in the pipe. The first time it went I was cleaning up...

No, it collapses when it blocks. The issue is the first time it took a total block to slightly distort the barrel, now its more prone to collapsing in the same place, even with less of a blockage than before. Its created a weak spot where the side wall folded unfortunately. Shame, as it was ok...

Yeah, but this barrel is knackered and I have the timber. If I were starting from scratch I would do that.... If in a couple of months I find emptying the box a massive hassle then I might get a barrel and valve, will see.

I'm using a blue barrel, but about to bin it off. Each time it collapses it leaves a crease, so it's becoming more prone to collapsing than it was when new. It's in front of a Henry, which will collapse it in about 2 seconds if a block develops. Ply box and grip fill for me...

Can I take the track saw?

What size rail?

For me the top sits a tiny bit too small, either less chamfer or more overhang, but it's basically there....

Unless you know what you'll keep in the proposed drawer I suspect it would be too small to be much use, I wouldn't add one myself. I also think you'll find it easier to make a well weighted piece without the drawer, especially as it would open on the shorter side.

The question implies you don't actually need anything, in which case I would suggest you treat yourself. Buy a beautiful handmade square that you'll touch and appreciate every day..

Nelsun shared a link above, but I've also found them on ebay being sold to screw down guitar effects pedals. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pedalboard-Mounting-Anchors-Fixings-Stainless-Steel-Tougher-Than-Tape-/154151987775?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292 Search 'guitar pedal lock' or similar...

That's all helpful, thanks guys.

I understood that the plates do allow some movement, assuming they have the clearance? Less so than buttons perhaps?
