I had one of those days today in the workshop! You know when you got it all planned the night before regarding how much you got to do and get held up on something thats giving you grief! I have had a CMT mitre cutter for my router table for a while. Its a pretty big chunk of metal, and I just...

Four years ago I purchased a metal tenon jig from America. It was to be used on my Scheppach TS2500 saw-bench. First I had to attach it to a runner that would fit neatly in the track that exists in the saw table. To date the only way I could achieve this was to size a piece of perspex which is...

At long last I have found a need for my Trend DJ300 dovetail jig that I have had for a while, and have just discovered that I have mislaid the instructions for use and assembly. :( :( Are there any forum users who have such a jig that would be willing to help me with their instructions...

I have a Scheppach spindle moulder and have just bought a 240v power feed to go with it. Its an ITECH 240v Power feeder. I am at a loss on how to connect it to the spindle moulder, and would appreciate advice on how this is done. There is no NVR switch on the power feed, and I assume this is...

Hi there; Before I get into Spindle moulding, I would very much like to have a good book that covers the various aspects of the subject. Is there anyone who would be willing to sell me such a book (second hand of course), that they no longer require anymore. I would pay for postage obviously...

I am about to start scratch-building our kitchen by using Walnut veneered MDF for the carcasses with walnut timber for the frames,doors drawers etc. I have a Scheppach ts2500 saw bench and an Elektra beckum cross cut saw, that will be doing my final cuts after cutting down the 8x4ft sheets. I...

I have a Scheppach spindle moulder, and would like the sliding carriage to go with it. Does anyone have one they no longer use and would be willing to sell? Thanks Mark.r

Concerning self build kitchen carcasses, I have this "thing" about melamine faced chip board. In fact I am not fussed on chipboard in general, though I realise it has its uses. My point is that I will be starting our scratch build kitchen in the Summer, and I want to construct the carcasses out...

Does anybody know where I can get customized rail/style cutters for a spindle moulder? I will be starting to scratch build my kitchen in Spring, and we are very fond of one particular profile we have found on one oak kitchen door that we are going to base our kitchen design around. Its nothing...

Could anyone please advise me wether I need to be concerned about the static electricity caused by dust extraction. My set up is based on 110mm underground piping with all junctions in the ducting made from the same. I saw in Axminsters catalogue their earthing set for dust extractors, but dont...

I have the Axminster ADE4000 Dust extractor, and am disappointed with the level of suction. The ducting leaves the machine in a 13 ft, 4 inch diameter main artery. Off this I spur off to 6x power tools. Again these spurs are also in 4 inch diameter ducting. I should say, when I say "ducting" I...

:? In the past I have never paid for a good quality small circular saw, but am in need of one very soon. The ones that I have had have been Black & Decker etc. I am referring to the 190mm diameter saws, which weigh approx 5kgs. What I have noticed with circular saws, including some I have...

Hi everyone; Two days ago I placed an article on the Forum under "General Woodworking" for a woodtunring copying jig. It may have been best for me to have placed the article on this section- wood turning, so in case some of you haven't seen it, could you go over to "General Woodworking" and...

Another tool query I have relates to the sliding carriage for my Scheppach 2500 saw bench. I have one for the machine, its just that I have the Scheppach Spindle moulder, and again will be putting it to a lot of use in the construction of our scratch built kitchen. I don't want the hastle of...

In the new year, I am hoping to start the scratch build of our new kitchen. The design we want includes a number of turned pillars on the corners of the island unit and as well as to the sides of the sink and cooker. To turn these free hand will not only be to time consuming, but to get even a...

I am in a slight dillema. We are going to be replacing the existing kitchen in the new year, and its been a long time ambition to make it myself. I have wanted the kitchen in Oak, with it stained dark to match the theme of dark wood throughout the house. Now my wife would prefer to have the...

My workshop is almost complete, and it is very large with a load of both hand and power tools. I have just kitted it out with a complete dust extraction system to all the power tools as well. The workshop building is approx 35 yards away from my main house, and I feel the level of insurance...
