Wondered if anyone could answer this - a couple of years ago I bought a Burnmaster Eagle (which I then only used once).

A friend asked me about getting one, so I had a look to see if he could...

Sold to GM2 (BEM - noted, thanks).

Hi all

Jet 6” long bed jointer. JJ-6CSDX. $550. Pick up required.

In good condition, one owner (me), but not used very much at all - selling due to space limitations - it hasn’t had enough...

Yes it does. I never fitted it but the plate is included.

$250 ONO (cash only). Pick up required. Located in 3163.

Selling a HAFCO BS4A Metal Cutting Bandsaw. It was bought for a project that never happened and so the tool is essentially unused. Some...

For xmas I was lucky enough to get the Leigh D4R Pro dovetail jig. I currently have the MOF001 Triton Router and was looking forward to combining the two.

But as is always the way, I need a new...

I used pocket holes (Kreg) to make indoor tables, outdoor tables and all the work benches in my shed (6m of them including the SCMS station) and they take a proper beating. The kids regularly jump on...

Last post on this topic, but thought I should finish the thread.

Although the gents at Carbatec struggled to hide their scepticism the boxes did fit into the back of a 2003 x trail. Getting it in...

Thanks for the additional input - I should clarify that I am very much a hobbiest and am unlikely to need to worry about panels much but I appreciate the advice.

The majority of my work has been...

Well, it took me almost 6 months but I finally went down and bought the Jet today. Got it with the "two free blades" offer currently on.

Then I bought the Jet Scroll Saw. I think I was going saw...

If anyone is in the SE suburbs of Melbourne there's a huge pile on North Road labelled 'free firewood' and there's always heaps down on Cochranes Road.

So now I have given myself no excuse . . .

I have a triton router mounted under the carbatec cast iron table and there's a problem, it seems that the clamps that hold the router in place are vibrating loose!!

Twice now I've had the router...

Thanks very much for all the advice. It was pretty unanimous in favour of the Jet. I thought I would post up my decision and reasoning in case anyone else finds them self in this situation.

So...

I just turned 40 and through the generosity of friends ended up with about $900 to put towards my next bit of equipment. Much of the gifts came in the form of carbatec vouchers. Luckily I work a 10...

Appreciate the replies but what's the problem with the sapwood?

I am struggling for inspiration.

The slab in the picture has been sitting around the shed for 6 months. It's about 100 mm thick, probably 1250 mm long and maybe 500 mm to 600 mm wide (varies...

Hi all. Could do with some advice.

I have the Triton TRA-001 router clamped underneath the Carbatec cast iron top router table.

Aside from almost slicing off my finger when putting the table...

I dont have a pic but I drew one. Here it is. As you can see these things are attached to the rafter but because they don't brace against anything else it's hard to see what they do. If anything they...

Collar ties go from from rafter to opposing rafter. These things hang off the same rafter - so attached at the top near the apex, vertically down about 2m, then they make a right angle back to the...

I've been exploring our roof cavity with a view to converting it into a storage space. It's a pretty standard (if large) roof space for a house with a pitched roof, but attached to every roof timber...

I need some advice on covering up a long, low garden wall.

The wall retains the garden borders all around the front garden. It's total length is probably 25 meters. It faces into the garden.

I used coach bolts onto 4 posts. I actually attached the posts to the short ends first before concreting in the ends of the posts, then bolted on the longer sides. It made lining everything up...
