I'd be more worried about the piles of sawdust around the hut - it would appear it's missing quite a bit!

Brackets from Timbecon (I think - it's been a while). Timber from Bunnings trade centre - Seven Hills (SYD). :eek:

And here is one I prepared earlier ...

15814 :)

Used 90x45, 70x35 & Cyprus Pine floorboards. Total timber cost $160. Brackets $40.

I guess it all depends on what you want to do with it. I have the Triton router ($300+ 1/2" 2.5kW) mounted in the Triton table, and a cheap ($75 1/4" 850W) router for light hand held work. Total...

Just my 2c - but has anyone used a router and table to joint an edge? I have the Triton and there are shims included to help with this ...

Just noticed this on the SMH site ...

Maybe I should think about closing the doors and windows when I'm working ...

On second thoughts ...

Nah ... :-)

I'd say yes. I have the B&D one (about $90) and when you turn it on, red markers appear to the left and right for at least 10m and swing about a bit until level.

Been very useful getting things...

I found that turning the external cold water tap into the house off also stopped hot water comming out of the main tank.

Quite easy to try - turn main supply off and run the cold tap for 10-15...

Bloody hell - they are just around the corner! I'll give them a call.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, I would have to remove some beer from my fridge to be able to do this! :-)

I guess it really depends how cold your fridge is set - the batteries on my tools get rather warm when...

Hi All,

I'm planning on making a periscope (well about 4 or 5) for some up-coming birthdays and I'm looking for some mirrors that are unbreakable (ie: not glass) to use in the project.

I've...

Happy new year to you too!

Jack is doing very well - he's just over 4 months old now and charming everyone he meets.

He loves the cot - it gives him plenty of space to throw his arms and legs...

My son Jack, helping me out with a picture frame article ...

If you are limited on space, forget the extension table - my better half bought me one for my birthday and it takes up 2x as much space as the original table.

I'm not knocking it - I have plenty...

I did notice when installing my guard support that it was not at 90deg to the main bench when locked.

A bit of gentle flexing helped this.

I'll check tonight the width of my standard Triton...

From my limited work so far, I first tried the larger bits (19mm) and had the same problem of the bit moving around.

I then moved to a bit that was either half the width of the hole I needed or...

And one from the front ...

Well, it's finally finished! I used Wattyl stain & varnish (after they said it was non-toxic after a 2-3 week cure period) in Teak colour to match the rest of the house.

Hi All,

This is my first major work - a cot for my son Jack who's now 6 weeks old.

I took an old run down cot and used it as a template for the new one.

It all bolts together and can be...
