Hi, I’m a bit of a newbie, is this supposed to clear dust from the air, or take dust directly from a machine?

Cut a neat right angle into some scrap ply, clamp it to your router table. Place your rough disc of wood tight into the elbow. Rotate the disc by hand so the the outer edge of the wood is against the router cutter. Done

1. Thanks for cheering us all up. I really needed that. Fabulous. 2. You haven’t written anything original and you haven’t provided any solutions so what was the point of this? 3. I came to this forum to escape into a joyful world of woodworking, not to read poorly punctuated amateur climate...

Could I get the app to connect to the printer? No way. I have had this problem, this is how I fixed it. It’s nothing to do with your phone: your router provides 2 WiFi networks, 2.4ghz and 5ghz. The printer only uses 2.4ghz. The phone uses both, but needs to be connected to the same network as...

I've run a branding/graphic design business for 14 years. Honestly your question doesn't have a simple answer, some people spend a lifetime distilling the essence of one brand. In the simplest terms: if your brand is working it should optimise the value of your product and create some level of...

It sounds like they’re within their rights. I would write a very polite, humble, apologetic letter explaining that she didn’t benefit financially from use of the image as it was used in error for a charity post. Ask very politely for proof/confirmation that PicRights are/represent the rights...

Cool, thanks! More questions! Did you drill all the way through and then adjust height from below, or just keep lifting the plate up and adjust from above? Did you threadlock the grubs or did they stay where you put them anyway? Did you screw the plate down or did you let it float on the grub...

I’m sorry if this sounds stupid. How do your leveling fixings work, and where did you get them please? I installed my Kreg plate into a chunk of kitchen worksurface and (as instructed) “shimmed” it with masking tape. Your solution is so much more elegant!

I’m so excited. I’m a complete newbie and I know what the second picture is. It’s a skew chisel for a lathe, which has been sharpened to a stub and is therefore completely unsellable.

Hi, I went out to Toolstation and bought a £40 bench grinder, but now I'm worried it might not do the job, is there a specific spec I need please, before I tear open the box?

Hi, I saw a comment somewhere on here that said "When you buy a grinder make sure it has stones suitable for sharpening HSS tools, not the standard grey stones" does that mean you cannot use the grey stones at all for HSS? I bought a £40 grinder from Toolstation last night in a hopeful mood...

Hi, does anyone have any advice on where to get effectively priced gouges? I'm starting out, I do have a constrained budget,. but I don't want to buy anything that's going to 1) kill me or 2) that I will throw away in frustration! Thanks!

This one pls

The first one please!

Thanks for your response, I have a drill/driver, impact driver, table saw, jigsaw, mitre saw, router & home-made table, pillar drill, 3D printer, cheapo bandsaw, multi tool, pocket hole jig, I was looking at the mini circular saws (Worx etc) planers, sanders, lathes, and various gadgets

That's great, thanks, but I'm looking for the regulation size, which is 3' x 2' sits in a tray and without the strings please?

I have a couple of hundred pounds to spend on a birthday present for myself, not a huge workshop. A full-sized lathe won't fit easily What tool or tools have you bought yourself that you used all the time or gave you particular satisfaction? I already have a drill/driver, impact driver, table...

Who doesn't love table skittles? I'm planning to make my own set, I'm thinking walnut, black felt and polished stainless steel/chrome (rather than oak, brass and green baize). Nice box joint corners. Trouble is that I have no idea where to get the plans from, does anyone have an idea where I...

Thank you!
