    Multitools

    I'm guessing but that looks like it might be a Fein delta sheet (80mm) on a standard 93mm delta pad.

    Strange happening

    It's very obviously literally a UFO.

    Metal Square Saved.

    Nice rescue but fusion unless I've misunderstood.

    Armouring internet cable under grave driveway

    What you are missing is that it is the bit in bold which runs under the drive.

    Why are some router tables made up of cast iron but not others?

    That's the key though in your last sub-clause, must be 90%-95% on here who make things out of interest rather than for a living. It's a hobby, at weekends etc. It's not territory where opportunity cost analysis applies.

    Armouring internet cable under grave driveway

    Irrespective of the existing, put in a new duct while you are at it, ideal opportunity to future proof.

    Removing paint from cement

    The pro way would be with a Doff type superheated steam machine. I rented a Lavor diesel equivalent to strip paint off the stonework on our facade. Or maybe a Torc machine (adds abrasive into the mix, would speed things up and as it is render not so much concern about a bit of surface damage...

    feasability

    It'll last a good while painted. Plenty of hoardings to say so.

    Fitting in line fan in attic.

    I have an older (not "Silent") S&P in a shower room (also from TLC https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/SLTD160.html) - it's been running just fine for nearly 20 years. That newer silent one looks good. How honest is the silence? Most of the noise with mine is air noise, can't really hear...

    Fitting in line fan in attic.

    As I said above 125 flexi should mate quite nicely with the flared bit of pipe at the socket end. I found this out installing soil pipe for my extraction system - cutting the lip off a socket end of a soil pipe fitting or chopping a soil pipe coupler in half gives something that mates pretty...

    Who made this TYZACK panel plane?

    Where they were then https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.5272851,-0.078896,3a,44.1y,41.49h,85.12t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sOBCN5F1TyDEtfr3K75PtKg!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?entry=ttu Where they are now (just around the corner turn left and a few hundred yards up that road)...

    Fitting in line fan in attic.

    Yes, the first one looks like a push fit bend with a plain end, with the socket side down and the upper plain end going into the socket of another of the same type of bend. On a second look it says 87.5 (degrees) on the side of the socket, so that has to be a soil pipe bend. Flexi...

    Fitting in line fan in attic.

    I was going to say the same (and it says Osma on the side) - sure it is 100 not 110?

    Speaker boxes/cabinets

    How come never to be finished, or is that self-deprecating irony about slow progress? The (metal cone?) woofers have a very expensive air to them, what are they?

    Festool domino: benefits + price

    Ah OK, I was wondering if I was missing something. I now see the little divots at the end. How does it cut those? What's the mechanical movement? Edit: now see it oscillates at the end of the cut, presumably up and down to shove the sides of the blade tips in to groove the back of the...

    Are EV's good value? Apparently not!

    Nuclear of any size is not cost competitive any more, and the small ones are worse not better on that front. There's a load of hype around them but unless goverments subsidise them massively that seems likely to die away with economic realities. I also think lots of small ones is daft from a...

    Festool domino: benefits + price

    If you are looking at it from a small business trade perspective putting that sort of cabinet together, the economically rational way might be a cheaper biscuit jointer, £25 on the CMT blade and save the Lamello tax for packs of the clams. I do think those Tenso claims look great, but would...

    Cutting list for CNC

    Off topic, but in looking at quotes for ready cut panels for a project to see if it would save time at not too much cost (in this case the answer was no), I found one of the online CNC panel cutters shows their optimised layout of the sheets as part of the quote (to allow you to select which off...

    Festool domino: benefits + price

    Yes I know. I'm not stupid. I am talking about putting an 8mm blade in the LNF to use the clamex fittings precisely because it, like the Lamello, is a biscuit jointer. You are the one who said you bought the biscuit jointer first so you prefer it.

    Festool domino: benefits + price

    The real truth is probably closer to there are many ways to skin a cat which end up with a skinned cat, but a lot of cat skinners will tend to think their own way of skinning a cat is greatly superior. And sometimes, there's an added element of something about blaming tools.
