You've MADE a dud blade.

You don't need to hang the new joists under the old ones, you can stagger them in-between. But really the answer is to ue acoustic hangers as other have suggested. You just want the structure to be decouple from the roof structure and acoustic hanger achieve that perfectly adequately. If you...

I don't think it's bike wheel related, you would expect the vice bit to accommodate an axle not be flat jawed. Also there are loads of bike wheel diameters so a fixed length is pretty unuseful in any kind of bike workshop. And there would also need to be a fair bit of height difference to each...

I made one from those drawings a few years ago. It wasn't actually that easy to mate them together. It locks it down fine but it's a bit of a fiddle getting it to clamp on narrow blades, it tends to want to walk out as you tighten the screw. As per usual never got round to finishing it and...

That's not a farm. Where's the mud... And dung.

It's not a boot hook. The hook is clearly wrong, it needs a flat bottom to pull the leather tab evenly, that thing would trash the tab is no time. It's not a manhole lifter because A. They're bloody heavy, and have huge whole hand handles. B. They lock rigidly or you would forever be dropping...

It's really hard to tell from the photoo. But are you starting at the end closest to you? As you are knew forgive me if you know this but you start at the end furthest away and work backwards as you achieved the desired depth. The I THINK you are doing it means the plane is trying to take on...

There is a fold out Stanley knife aswell with he same blades. Much prefer it to the folding or sliding big standard Stanley blade knives.

Mine lasted about 10seconds, dropped it as I took it out the packet and it punched the concrete floor and made a nice little mushroom on the pin.

Just warm them a little and splash on some linseed oil. Old vices deserve to keep their scars.

That's a rebranded paramo no. 10. I think the Stanley rb10 came later.

First picture bottom right. That's a hammer that is.

So have you tried drilling something? Loosen off that adjustment knob all the way to start with.

I remembered now. When the bit hits the item to be drilled and can't drop the flywheel climbs down the thread taking the pressure off the drill bit which then drops again, but smoothly, it doesn't lift and drop just puts the pressure on and off. I would also disagree about needing to use it...

An alternative view is that it's actually quite clever, the quill descends fast until it meets resistance then the rotation is transferred to the flywheel or something and magic happens in some way that just enough downward pressure is applied to work. I would need to dust my similar one off to...

I would also take a small wager that that evostik stuff is just naptha aswell. Naptha Lighter fuel Whitegas Liquid camping fuel eg. Colemans All the same stuff

Lighter fluid (naptha) is my go to remover of sticky stuff. Acetone also works but with MDF the moisture is more of a problem. And a pack of playing cards are phenomenal non destructive scrapers. Obviously they don't last long but while they are good you can work backwards and forward with a...

That sounds consistent with a Jacobs taper. The chuck has a hole all the way through the whole is tapered to accept a Jacobs taper. If you Google chuck Arbor you will see what I mean but I doubt it has the second taper to fit the machine (such as a morse taper) I think it sounds like I know...

It's so you can have one iron POLISHED to perfection perfection with a really tight mouth and the other attacked with bit of rough concrete for 30seconds with the *ahem* chip breaker set really close so you can leave the mouth wide open. This ensuring impossibility of not achieving exactly the...

I agree it's something leathery however the edge is sharp even in it pitted condition I reckon of I leaned on it a bit the teeth would make a row of little incisions.
