I think the original post hilarious. It is so true. I do how ever find the massive over reaction to it amazing. I had to re read it a few times and i still dont get the rascism within it. You have to be a rascist to see rascism i think. The biggest dig is at the minister so does that become...

I just thought that i should say thanks to Axminsters Last Monday at around5pm i sent an order to them via the internet. Nothing unsual and the site stated if i ordered before 4pm i would get next day deflivery. So i missed it by 1 hours. Next morning at 7.30am TNT Arrives with my order...

and here is me getting fed up because it takes me 10 minutes to get to town for some milk and bread :?

When i did A level maths our teacher used to say this little sentance and it has lived with me Soh - Silly old Harry Cah - Caught A Herring Toa - Trawling Of America Weird how things stick.

I have not used the stuff before but bought some at the weekend and opened it up tonight and its like thick jelly. it is like squeezing tooth paste out of a tube. Is this normal? If so how much water should i add to thin it down or should i take it back to the shop? thanks

Assuming non wood working??? I like a fair few authors Conn Igulden Simon Scarrow R A Salvatore Jennifer Fallon Bernhard Cornwall All good authors but there are many more revcently bought a Kindle and it is a really good bit off kit. Love mine to bits...

The screw hole machine is an AUGER. I hand dug all my posts when i built my picket fence. Did just over 60 Meters and it took me 2 days. I believe if you concrete the posts in you will make it a harder job on the day you have to remove and replace rotten posts. I placed mine into the soil...

Very funny Dave R. :lol: #-o #-o =D> Sort of thing i do to my Mrs.

Seems like bad practise to me Markwurze but that said the cable should be safe though to touch. Think of the poor sods who have to work on it alive when its belting with rain, snow and standing water. Trouble with the eletric companies is that with privatisation and competition in connections...

I am not sure how long string would take on pipe but we use it to cut the out sheath of the underground cables to stop damaging the neutral wires on L.V. cables. It is alot faster than you would imagine if you get it right. Trouble you have unless you make a small nick is the string drifting...

There were a few fruity ideas for Studded Knobs :) Could have been worse if i googled Screw Driver i guess?

Hi To begin with i am no good at explaining things so here goes...I am after the plastic headed bolts to make some jigs...The ones with a fairly large head to make tightening/loosening easy so i can make some jigs for my router. USA sites refer to them as Studded knobs but i cannot find any...

Interesting WIP. I also have an asbestos roof and have soon got to change the joists etc. It will be very interesting to see your finished result. Keep up the good work. Mark

I need a little advice with Danish Oil. I am currently coating an Oak board with the oil and it seems to have gone sticky. Is this just the normal drying process and it will end up not sticky? Also what is best to do between each coat? Apply more or rub it down with 000 wire wool or anything...

Yes i have worked from both sides and was left with roughly an inch to get through to complete the full cut. I ended up using a jigsaw to cut the hole totally out. All i got to do now is tidy the inside of the hole up to make it look something...any ideas on that would be nice? I do not own a...

Hi Can anyone tell me if it is possible to buy router bits that would have a cutting depth to about 1 3/4 inch in depth or slightly more? I am trying to make a hole with a 10 inch diameter in some 3 inch thick oak. Or has anyone got some other advise that would make it easier going. So far i...

My other hobby is metal detecting and after several years of this past time and also several metal detectors i can safely say you only get what you pay for. I cannot really speak for nail finding as my 2 main machines find them with no problems but if you do go down the metal detector line i...

In disputed currently with the claim. Fingers crossed and all that. Not sure how long the pipe was burst by the time i got home Eric but the water was running freely over my doorstep and across the drive. There was roughly a water trail of 40 yards before it vanished down the drain near my...

I admire anyone wanting to train in something but you may want to consider the cost of it all as well. Fully qualified courses including 17th edition regs and part P are not that cheap. You can go to these micky mouse companies and gain the skill but the qualification is not worth the paper it...

Mine is still work in progress but. 5.5m x 5.5m for the workshop. 4.5m x 6m for the wood store. Both are being set up slowly and by spring i should be able to forget setting up and work on the "making kindling" part.
