    Shiplap or FeatherEdge ?

    32mm featheredge is approx 6-8mm wide at the narrow edge so you shouldn't really have problems with splitting. When putting 32mm featheredge on barns my dad uses approx 1.5" overlap, and Vasterns recommends 40mm. I wouldn't recommend the thinner stuff with a 3mm edge. When putting up...

    What SCMS please?

    I've been very happy with my Makita LS1013, which I bought partly because it was repeatedly referenced in reviews as one of the most accurate and reliable SCMS available. I believe it has been replaced by the LS1018. Capacity 305mm same as your Bosch link and price around £390 online. Could be...

    New member wanting advice! (On starting out)

    If you want all this for 200-400: I think you will have to seriously consider second hand/freecycle etc. A decent router like a DW621K is about 200 straight away. However a second hand one can be had for under 100. Similarly you can probably pick up a free hoover on freecycle. This forum is...

    Green oak/sleepers + cutting advice/n.east supplier ?

    I bought some new chestnut from UKsleepers and it had loads of woodworm! Oak looks ok, though still green currently. No problems with delivery really, though the driver had a good whinge about how narrow the lane was, despite me informing them of this when I ordered - but he didn't seem to enjoy...

    Hi guys, Approximately how much is an average price for sawn iroko? ie how much would you expect to pay per cubic foot? Sizes approx 30x150x1000mm and 75x75x1000mm (don't know if dimensions make much difference to price) Thanks, Dan

    How can I find someone to produce a chair designed by me?

    Well, Cutu is an international brand it seems: http://lumberjocks.com/topics/19077 Looks a bit familiar :? Maybe the US dollar works out cheaper than sterling :lol:

    Multi-point timber door locks

    Thanks Setch, with that kind of a CV I really do need to take notice I guess :) And you echo others who have not been keen on MPLs. My resistance is faltering... This is why I wanted a high security cylinder. Do you have any experience with the EVVA 3KS? Interested to know expert opinion, as...

    Multi-point timber door locks

    I've had a good think about the advice given now - thanks for all the info :) If I wanted to keep the shop to single-key-to-open (arising partly from previous forum advice not to make it look like Fort Knox and advertise that kit of value is inside) then multi-point seems the way to go. I was...

    100mm Extraction Hose

    I got 6 metres of the clear stuff with steel spiral wire off ebay recently. Seller: dustspares. Came to £38, or around £47 including delivery. I wanted clear pipe to see any blockages. Looks good so far :)

    Sudden Oak Death...The Westcountry

    Ah, I see. Well, you could try this contact from Forest Enterprise, the executive agency of the Forestry Commission responsible for timber sales: I have to warn you though, that they generally seem to sell their timber in large lots of the order of a few hundred tonnes apiece. Might be a little...

    Sudden Oak Death...The Westcountry

    Jim, in the first ten seconds he says "...this is some of the larch we are felling that is going off to market shortly.." :P And Mister fish, you must have HUGE feet, those are whole tree trunks he is standing next to, and unless he is from Lilliput I'd say they must be at least 20 feet long...
