I think I've been lucky to pick up one of these RAS for a bargain price. It seems in good condition and appears to be working fine too, however, it is missing any manual(s) and if possible I'd like to find a copy so that I can set it up properly and get to work using it. I've searched this...

My neighbour opposite has installed a rather tall flagpole in his front garden. The garden is tiny, so the flagpole sits adjacent to the footpath behind a small hedge. The pole is at least street light height and is quite a large diameter so it's not discreet. A cross of St George is flown from...

Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of using hardwood logs in a fireplace purely for decorative purposes? We have a fireplace in a modern house, which does not lend itself to a proper wood/log fire and I want to stack logs in the space to make it look better than the empty space it...

Does anyone have any knowledge of a wooden plane manufacturer by the name of Cross Bros (Brothers)? Today, whilst attending the funeral of this plane's owner, I noticed it.

Just spotted this advert in Gumtree for Sash Clamps. There are 10 various sized clamps for £60 in Worcester Park, South London. They look like heavier duty types - not aluminium. I just wish I lived near, otherwise I'd have them.

Please be gentle - this is my first ever attempt at a proper bit of furniture (if you call storage units furniture..?). I made it for my youngest son's bedroom, which badly needed some good strong (he's a 6yr old bruiser! :roll: ) storage that actually fits his toy and books etc. The tat you...

Hi there, I've got a lot of inspiration from this forum and decided to build a workbench. I'm sure I read somewhere that building a workbench is a good starter project, but I guess it's almost essential to have one if you intend making much else. Anyhow, I saw Lord Nibbo's masterpiece (I would...
