    Well as I am just exploring this I don’t really know, however it is for furniture making with 20mm oak planks primarily, does this help?

    Good DIY morticer for infrequent use

    Can anyone recommend something that fits this description? It is likely to used a lot for a project then be unused for a couple of months. Budget is not the be all and end all but neither do I want to waste money!

    The problem is that the wooden ‘slider’ in the shoulder vice cannot be removed to ‘plane‘ it.

    Sjobergs Bench

    Actually the workshop is insulated but is I unheated as it is large (15m x 7m x4m high), heating it would cost a fortune!

    Sjobergs Bench

    I understand this, and yes it is an issue. However if I am making something like you suggest I will make sure the humidity is OK, I just don’t want to have to keep my workshop at 40% to 50% 24/7 all through the winter when most of the time I am doing general stuff not ‘furniture’ quality things.

    Sjobergs Bench

    I bought this bench last May and love it to bits however over the winter the shoulder vice has become unusable and the drawers have become really, really stiff and the cupboard doors won’t close by a significant amount. After several back and forward with Sjobergs they tell me that this is...

    Enclosure in Barn materials

    I need to make an enclosure in our Barn to house the filtration kit for our borehole. It froze last week! The Barn is mostly rainproof, unheated with soil floor.

    Makita VC3012M 240 V M Class Dust Extractor

    Thanks, yes I definitely have it set to the right size hose. It squawks with my sanders, biscuit jointer, router, band saw, chop saw, table saw and planner/thicknesser (I can forgive for the latter!). It even complains when I attach a reduced nozzle to suck up dust in awkward places! You can...

    Makita VC3012M 240 V M Class Dust Extractor

    Does anyone know how to turn off the alarm on this machine? I spent a lot on this thing, if you connect anything to it the alarm sounds, I returned it to Makita and they 'fixed' it (damaged in the return - but since repaired!) but it still constantly squawks at me all the time. I have sadly put...
