    Window Tooling for Amateurs???

    i've used this set to make windows and doors, It's tricky to do the first one, and takes a bit of time, but after that it all gets easier. For the frames I used normal router bits.. http://www.trend-uk.com/en/UK/productlist/4/67/Shoulder_Scribe_Cutters.html[url]

    Wanted no more band saw picked up today - pics

    I thought the Besato4 was really bad it didn't resaw at all,, It really didn't resaw 6" of green oak without complaining about it. All the other stuff it did all right.

    Fine Woodworking site.

    I personally think it's a fantastic site, if you join , no end of great info , years worth of articles and videos. if you delve in there's so much in there, and like said the fine homebuilding is pretty good as well. Also with the exchange rate it's not much to pay for a year ( I think).
