I can't see a riving knife or guards in the other photos, it's definitely looking like a death trap, it also states that the blade can't be lowered so there's also that...

Hello all, Not sure if it's been posted before, but just stumbled upon this machine that states it can plane, saw and drill. Is this kind of machine normal? I'm concerned as to how you would switch on the individual part you want to use and if not how safe it would be planing timber with a saw...

Wow! thank you for the help knot 👍🏻 it does look very similar to my model so i’ll keep that manual link saved somewhere handy.

I’ve attached some photos, thanks for the chart. i’m looking at Pegas on axminster but still unaware of what length to get, I’m probably just gonna get in touch with Wickes.

Thanks for the link! still trying to figure out what length of blade I need :unsure:

Hello all, Been gifted a Wickes 16” Scroll Saw by a relative and was wondering if anyone could share any knowledge of what blades would be suitable for it and places where I could possibly by them. Cheers

thanks for the tip Keith, it says that the UJK is sold out :( so I'll probably go for the Trend alumnium plate when I can.

Thankyou ozzieguy65! you’ve been a great help, off to the e of bay for me 😁

Axminster Folding Router Table Kit this one.

that’s definitely something i didn’t consider! i’m sure that’s what i’ll have to do, thank you for the help.

Hello all, I bought my first router a while ago a Makita RP2301FC and recently bought an Axminster Router Table, i’m struggling to attach the router to the base of the table, do I have to buy a special base plate for my make and model or am I missing something here?

I bought their Rutlands ( probably rebadged) lathe in december as it was my breakthrough into wood turning and didn’t wanna break the bank just starting off, the spanner that they provide to help take off the default faceplate is a kind of cast iron that’s about 2/3mm thick and it completely...

Biggest blank I've found yet is the spalted beech on English woods at 19 inches in diameter and that is quite costly, Let us know when you find a millionaire that wants to buy all our giant bowls 🤣

That definitely makes more sense, I can image them being extremely hard to sell, did they recommend what a maximum size bowl should be?

large platters are probably what the outboard turning is used for but I'm just so curious about how well they sell, would it even be feature I'd need...

Hi all, I'm currently looking to upgrade my bench top lathe to a floor standing one soon and the most obvious improvement when going up sizes is the swing over the bed for bowl turning with some lathes that offer outboard turning being able to turn bowls 29+ inches in diameter. Anybody that...

For any future persons of interest I ended going with a Baileigh Industrial WBS-12 Bandsaw and it's been great to me.

I had no idea the wheels would become useless, If I was going to use a purpose built cupboard with casters I'd probably start looking at the hammer n2-35.

I have been watching a lot of set up videos by the manufacturers and some by matt estlea but i haven’t seen Alex Snodgrass’ videos yet thanks for the recommendation. I wish i had the space and funds for a startrite or minimax machine, they’ll have to be dream workshop machines for now :(

That’s reassuring, i’m definitely gonna need all the customer support i can get. Wow 16 years is a long time, you got any tips for helping to keep it going strong for that many years?
