try using sugru. http://sugru.com I fixed a broken fridge door/draw with it very successfully. Obviously the repair will be on show, if you don't mind that!

loving the detail on the "slate" roof! Someone boy is going to be very happy when he gets that for sure.

Thanks Olly, I had actually looked on the manufacturers website and found a stockist who I happened to drive past today, but funnily enough being a Sunday there were shut. 8)

hey Tom, err yes its a new one that I am borrowing off a friend (yes NICE friend) so everything is a bit temporary as it will be sold at some stage...... Its 2000sq ft! :oops: and I'm running out of space :D but it just needs a bit of a sort out, but am too busy with everything else and am...

Thanks Olly, I've seen that stuff pop up in various threads and magazines and been tremped.....I'll go grab some, knock up a bench and leave it outside for a bit of testing for the summer......

Thanks guys, yes I am very lucky with the workshop, but it seriously need organising, one of those too much space things going on...... The table is definetely chunky and weighs a LOT, but it is designed to come apart with not too much effort to assist in moving it. I have left it to go silver...

Hey all, its been a while but thought would show you a big old garden dining table and bench set that I made and installed just after Xmas. Bit of WIP as well :D Take some nice green oak Make a wee jig to route the rebate for the metal plate (nice PC router from American ebay works a...

I really like the Domino and nearly bought one on Saturday in Axminster but am seriously struggling to understand why it is sooooo ridiculously expensive. I mean its just a new and improved BJ ;-) Yes it can do a lot more as you guys have shown. I guess Festool got a great copyright agent on...

apologies for delay but the festive cheer drew me away...... It was this site that made me think about US tools so I bought a few Porter Cable routers secondhand on Ebay + a small plunge saw when I was there a few months back. Have to say I am very happy that they work superbly and my bags...

"Some real 110V bargains you lucky things!" For the price of a 110v converter you would still be saving a chunk of money and of course if you bought more than 1 item think how much MORE you would save...... 8) Since I went 110v to grab a bargain on a 4" belt sander I've picked up some...

Very nice clamps, but how much? :shock: I use basic old skoool stuff like these: http://www.axminster.co.uk/product.asp? ... =1&jump=44 these: http://www.axminster.co.uk/product.asp? ... =1&jump=44

In addition to what you have mentioned already this is what I also do: Alternate the clamps, one above, one below, one above etc to even the pressure. Use F or G clamps at the ends to help keep the boards aligned, don't use too much pressure. Sam

had I just not bought a nice Grizzy from here, I would have nabbed it offf you!!

:oops: http://www.winghamtimber.com/ This is who I was thinking of. I will try the Chartham hatch one as not been there..... Sam

Ah ok, yes I know the one you mean now. I was after waney edge and they don't really do that kind of stuff there either. Whilst I have not bought from the French timber direct guy I did try to meet up to see if I could buy la fair quantity of large waney boards and he was very rude. The...

These are the guys you are thinking of: http://www.artisanoak.co.uk/ Not used them but they seemed helpful when I was scouring round for a timber supplier.

damn, just what i need another place close enough to drive to and spend too much money....... :D

Hey they look great. As you have white shelves I would take the time to prime the angle iron and then paint them white as your eye is drawn to the contrast of the brackets....alternatively stick your largest books etc at either side :D

BTW although I drilled holes to enable the shelves to be screwed down from underneath the shelves were such a good fit that I did not actually need to have done this (as you know I have a pillar drill which made the drilling very easy) so you might want to just drill the holes to fix to walls...

Ian that is really a good tip. I was thinking of buying one of these to make life easier: http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page ... ter%20lift BUT from what I just read of your post it is super easy to pop out to change cutters and I guess also super easy to adjust cutter height..... If...
