I would take it too, chop it into smaller chunks and mix it in with other woods, by the end of the night its gone. and that heat was free.

a tractor doing 10 mph ? a bit unlikely.

overtaking somone just before a built up area then braking to the speed limit - lol

If being better than the average driver was simply to have less than the average number of penalty points, then 93.5% would be better than average...

and can you switch it off / disable it ? If so then it has no value whatsoever to road safety. It will be a bit like the 20mph speed limit (we have had that for over 2 years now) The good drivers who were never a problem when it was 30 are now driving slower, where as, the idiots who never...

Yes, but they need to be a legal requirement, not a 'you can use it if you want nonsense. As for sign recognition, ours has that and it is very poor, it also has a habit of recognising any wide-ish modern single carriageway road as 70mph. i pointed this out to mercedes but to say they...

if a manufacturer can only make a speedometer 90% accurate, then their vehicles should be automatically limited to 90% of the speed limit - I'm sure the likes of mercedes and Audi would soon be selling cars with 100% accurate speedometers, their custmers would not be happy being stuck at 63 on a...

I was more thinking of a smart type device that would know exactly what road you were on and never ever allow any speeding ever. Probably be best when the entire car is ai controlled - too many people arejust mentally not suited to it, like to drive fast and suffer from road rage.

isnt it incredible that within all the space age technology that is lavished upon our cars, they still have not worked out how to monitor its speed accurately. I wonder how many people have ever said to the salesman, how accurate is the speedometer? The sooner automatic speed limiting arrives...

may be they have just taken out this 40mm board and replaced it with new 6 inch to bring the u values up to scratch. of course a clever person may of added to the existing rater than replace.

Are they giant pallets or is that a very small construction worker standing on the top (without suitable harness) ?

why is it wasted? The title and question is the exact same one that I was going to ask. It will still appear top of the list in that section for anyone to see who may know about such things. And if the original participants are still about then they may well be more experienced on the...

is that how long you should allow it to cure ? seems excessive

what type of wax have you found best ontop of danish oil - and how long would you let the danish oil cure first.

The more I experiment with scrappers, and the better I get at preparing/sharpening them, the more I am falling in love with them, they seem to give a beautiful finish even when not entirely with the grain. Beginning to wonder why I have wasted so much time with sandpaper.. you don't even have...

do you mean surface or suffice ? and i'm thinking you mean to wear down rather than to wake up ? even with the correct words it still does not make much sense. could you have another go at explaining

No tear out, think what you are looking at is some dried glue sitting in the lows between grain on the softwood, Trouble is with sanding with a long straight edge (apart from the fact that it doesn't really work) is that the grains are running at 90 degrees to each other. You say seal the...

It is a small table I am making that is a mix of Teak and a softwood (its all stuff out of a skip) I have so far just been using a scraper to level the teak down to (very nearly) the level of the softwood. But what best next, exp where the grains run at 90 degrees from each other. Do I...

Thanks for that, I was thinking Padauk too, so great to get some confirmation, esp from someone who has used it. And what a lovely job of that clock face you're making! Is it just that fast drying celulose based sanding sealer that you are using ? I guess application as soon as sanding is...

Two Questions Anyone identify this wood, when cut it looks orange, however I guess it will revert to that dark colour on the uncut bit after a month or two. For contrast I layed it upon a bit of Walnut inlayed into some pine. (just wanted to show off my inlay - LOL) And second question -...
