    1/2" sub £200 best router reccomendations please!

    You can buy collet sleeves which convert a 1/2 to any of the other sizes. Doesn't matter the brand of router, they are universal. Trend sell them. I also use a triton in one table but don't abuse it. I have had 2 blow up in 2 years due to others trying to take to much off too quick. I also have...

    Log cabin shingle roof help

    It's a gable roof. I don't wish to insulate. I like the look of the beams and painted osb. It is more of a summer house/games room than anything. Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk

    Log cabin shingle roof help

    I plan to use crown staples. I'm not installing insulation so all I have is 11mm osb on top of the roof stucture. Looks good. No idea how to upload images but I'm a mobile app. Thank you Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk

    How things have changed

    Neither I nor any of my employees use domino's. We make 100's of bespoke pieces a year. We do on occasion use the bead lock system for breadboard ends and I prefer this system over the domino as it seems more flexible in how you can use it. We also use biscuits for making panels and tops. If we...

    What's this bit on my lathe for?

    If not already said its a dobber well. You're missing the dobber. Lubricant would be in the well and a bit of pointy metal sits in it covering the hole. You use the dobber to dob the lubricant on whatever. Makes a nice little project on the lathe to turn one completing the lathe

    Anybody have any idea what this is?

    My first thoughts was keyway broach too but it never sat true as keyway broach as there not tapered and being round shafts there is no way to use a locater. These kinds of broaches are flat normally.

    'ageing' pine / softwoods

    I use caurstic acid although I don't know how to spell it. The old drain cleaner stuff. Mix with water in a spray bottle and spray on. After 2 to 3 times it starts looking a natural antique pine colour. Then finish with a clear pu.

    intumescent strips jig

    Yep. The correct size cutter and two fences either side. No need for jigs. Even one fence is enough.

    Clear Lacquer

    Dont bother to finish a workshop bench top. You will only damage the finish when working and it may make the surface slippy.

    BOLTS & COVERS

    I use couch bolts from underneath so you don't see anything on top of the bench.

    I KNOW NOTHING!

    Hello. My first router table was home made and had the original jcb in it. Its quite simple to put any router into a home made table simply by some very very basic engineering with wood. Or even basic engineering with metal. The current router in my table is a plunge router. Ill show and...
