    Acrylic paint troubles - help

    I have primed it yes. This prime paint is suitable for Mdf. The work is stored in the garage which with the current climate is cold. After cutting and sanding the mdf pieces i spray with primer. I don’t clean with solvent. This would mess up with the mdf which surely would be worse for priming.

    Record no5 Jack Plane - restoration

    I totally agree with you Stan. I’m struggling in getting this screw for this. I have rang places around me to no joy. Whitworth threads are rare, it would seem. If anyone can help with this would be appreciated.
