As they say: you can't choose your family or in your case, which sperm makes it into the egg! :laughing1::laughing1:

I'm in.

Love how supportive everyone here has been. I hope you are using the vape as a way to get off nicotine altogether. Here's a story to urge you on. I was in the bank one day and guy came in heavily...

I don't know how the Men's Shed thing operates: are you more or less and independent entity when it comes to deciding on how the shed runs? I would institute a "3 strikes and you're out policy - ie...

Totally brilliant. I like the idea of a horizontal unit that is not limited by the length of timber. Thanks

Thanks Derek for the photos and once again, apologies for not checking it out sooner, but I got no email alerts re any responses. I'm very sorry you have to share your shed with a car.

Brilliant! I'm going to watch these over breakfast tomorrow morning.

If you haven't checked out Steve Hay's video masterclasses they are really worthwhile. He...

Thanks for this review - I'm just about to start building an entire new kitchen for myself using all mortise and tenon joinery and I'll definitely get one of these now that I know how useful they...

"So my worry, has she given up on me, or has she done something far worse that I've yet to discover, or does my punishment await in ikea."

Eewwww, Ikea. I feel your pain dude. Your wife needs to...

The memorial has to sit on something and besides wood and stone are natural and beautiful partners. Also, stone will protect whatever timber goes on top from rotting, right?

Hi,
Just after thoughts re pros and cons of making mortises with a router versus a drill press with a mortising bit, both in terms of ease of execution and quality of end result. Thanks, Blue
