Sorry mate!

Pedestal drill now SOLD

Cheers,

Mark

Yeah, I regret selling both the Jointer and Thicknesser, both good machines.

But both now SOLD. Sorry, unable to edit main ad. Not sure why, but I have a feeling its me!

Cheers,

Mark

Also, I've had the thicknesser for 10 years, not 15. I bought it from a forum member shortly after I joined. For some reason, I am unable to edit the ad.

Mark

Yes Simo, I still have the thicknesser available, although I have an interested party who is currently working out shipping.

Cheers,

Mark

Sorry for the delay, here are the photos. The back and sides are in same condition.

Cheers,

Mark

All good Bernard!

Hi all,

I have an old dining table that I am restoring. I'm not sure of the timber. Can anyone help? Also, I would guess that the joints have been glued using hide glue. I've read in a previous...

Thank-you all, much appreciated!

Hi All,

I recently posted a thread about Tallowwood for use in post and rail fence and pergola. It turns out my local supplier didn't have the required stock and I've had to look at other options....

Thanks for that Sumbloak, some things to think about. Much appreciated!

Mark

Yep, i was just looking at the link from crowash and searching sapwood v heartwood. I'm sure my supplier would remove the sapwood when dressing. I like the idea of painting though. Some of the gal...

Thanks for you input guys, much appreciated! I'm leaning towards the tallowwood, although a little worried about the potential staining from gal supports, and possible borer attack. The prices quoted...

Hi all,

I'm building a post and rail fence to match my house (circa 1903) and was wondering which timber to use. The verandah has 120 x 120 painted hardwood posts of some sort. The fence will be...

Hi Superbunny,

Just wondering how your makita router is going 6 months on? I'm thinking of buying the same one, and there's not many reviews, given its relatively new I guess. I did read one...

It would be great to get the LS, but I think I'll stick with the Ultra Lite for now, metric version, and make the required calcs when necessary. I have contacted Mark, and he has been a big help,...

Sorry Damian, I was quoted $63 for shipping just for the jig itself using USPS.

Mark

Thanks for your response Damian, I've read a number of your posts re the Incra jig system.

Given the potential problems with a combined metric / imperial system, do you think I'd be better off...

Hi All,

I'm looking at purchasing the Incra Ultra Lite Jig metric version, possibly from the US as it appears cheaper depending on shipping.

Incra has informed me that while the Ultra Lite Jig...

Mark

Not sure how the typo got in this post?!

Nice bench! Any more photos?

Forget that. I just saw the link to your bench in the making. Very nice!!

Nice house Richard, I like it. Good web site too!

Mark

Does anyone have the 3620? Is this model able to be table mounted, or is it more a hand-held machine?

Mark

Thanks for that DJ!

Mark

Hi All,

I was just given an old Makita 3620 (I don't think it is the SP) and am not sure what size router bits it will hold. I've looked up on the internet and the makita website, and i can see...
