    Drill Driver Set?

    I have half a dozen Milwaukee 18v Fuel tools, and they really are the dog’s la la’s, but if I were starting over I would go for the Milwaukee 12v Fuel range. Lightweight, smaller, powerful … and cheaper than the 18v equivalent! Not specific to Milwaukee, there are also impact drills that have 4...

    New Detached Garage Workshop Design Considerations To Limit Noise

    For example, Gypframe RB1 Resilient Bar This product from British-Gypsum.com is used to “decouple” plaster board from ceiling joists or walls. Decoupling, whether via aluminium diffusion bars or very expensive laminated dense-foam/rubber mats (used as an interface layer between a solid block...

    Insulated roof panels for side extension

    Gotcha with electric cables ;) Panels might only be 30kg but horizontal and 3 metres up in the air they become a bit unwieldy to say the least! Consider these lifting aids or similar from HSS:- • Lift Stacker - various • ‘Genie Lifts - 159kg Lifter/stacker - 3.65m’ [+ extender arms?] • Genie...

    Hi all

    Ha. A man after my own heart. Welcome! I commissioned a 60’ WB barge 15 yrs ago. Meanwhile did a welding course, developed my woodworking, learnt plumbing and basic electrics. In fact, just started working in the solar PV / BESS industry, which has reignited my interest in DC electricity...

    Insulated roof panels for side extension

    Here’s my tuppence worth: • SIPs for roof panels might need a crane to manoeuvre into position, so factor in this cost • You will need to retain access to the existing manhole cover, which can be annoying depending on what kind of floor insulation/build up you are considering. I.e., dpm...

    Underfloor heating in a workshop

    In a small to medium sized garage/workshop I would consider an air-to-air heat pump = rapid space heating and 1/3 the price of an air-to-water installation. Sounds like you might be a professional woodworker, therefore traditional wet underfloor heating could work well *if* you/others occupy...

    Bora Centipede portable work stand

    I own the 8’x4’ Bora Centipede. Love it, as it’s lightweight, compact when not in use and fast/easy to put up. 8/10. As mentioned, table height is a bit low for “proper” workbench height. Eg, with an 18mm top. Therefore, I have an 8’x4’ piece of sacrificial 90mm Celotex that I lay over the...

    MFT Bench Dogs - Thoughts and recommendations?

    Ahh, a subject close to my heart, as I have MFT accessories from UJK, Benchdogs, and Banggood, in equal measure: Fence system (+ flag stops), compatible (Mafell) rail connectors, and large triangle from Benchdogs - very happy with the combo […mental note to self: stop subscribing to the...

    Alternative to Lamello zeta p2?

    BTW, fantastic project! Impressive that you are trying to innovate.Iterate, iterate, iterate! Agree that ixconnects aren’t the standalone solution here, especially on the top and bottom body sections. Clamex connectors will be virtually flush on both mating pieces, which is definitely desirable...

    Alternative to Lamello zeta p2?

    There’s also a dowel option that doesn’t require the purchase of an expensive new tool, one might argue!? Discounting the Mafell DDF40 of course! “The ixconnect SC 8/60 spreading connector is patented technology designed in house by Häfele which is ideal for connecting larger furniture items...

    Triton TPL180B Triple blade planer.

    This Makita 1910B 110v model is currently “discounted” on eBay for £250: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/125389493415 The sole measures 350mm x 110mm, it weighs 4.2kg; so sits somewhere between the standard 82mm jobbies and its big brother. I believe I must have bought the last 240v version as I...

    Hi @Bunnyman Can I call dibs on this please. I’m just down the way a bit in Swindon.

    Affordable vs Pride

    Simples then. Stop drooling over the new CSC SYS 50 Table Saw and imaging that it will make you more productive (..appreciate this completely contradicts the sentiment of my previous comment!), and instead use the money to take your better half on holiday; thereby dispelling the idea that you...
