The CTJ-350 was advertised in the Australian "Woodworker" June edition at $995 until the end of June. This should apply to all Carabatec outlets. I just purchased one from Carbatec Auckland. Although...

Eric, It's not really feasible to feed the router table from the front side of the saw, as Peter says you would have to move the fence to the other side of the router. This will always apply no...

Just sold my router table so I can't measure it now but the Triton website specifications claim it's 540mm x 690mm.

I think you'll find this was probably made from the tenon jig plan on plansnow.com I downlaoded these plans at one stage but as I'm still in the process of purchasing a table saw having sold my...

Without turning this into a fullscale Tasman slanging match there's really only one thing I can say to that... Brumbies 39 Hurricanes 47 :)

But seriously it's quite frustrating seeing all these...

I am also right now going through the process of purchasing the TSC-10HB but unfortunately I'm in Wellington. Carbatec have a franchise in Auckland. Their prices are generally catalogue AU$ price...

One of the added advantages of a VPS is it can also double as a frame for sheet storage. if you can store 4 or 5 full sheets of MDF there as well it becomes more useful. I think in terms of man...

Peter,

I've been thinking along exactly the same sort of lines as yourself and will be interested to see your results. I too have a double garage, but only half of it is my "workshop"; the other...

Hi Dean, nice review.

I have exactly the same calipers I bought from a local supplier here in NZ. I don't regret one bit buying calipers with a digital scale. They are extremely easy to read...

girnally speaking, yes...:D

Not quite sure what you're asking for here Ralph nor why you are restricting it to softwoods.

Lumber is generally cut in one of three ways...

In flat- or plain-sawn lumber, the growth rings are...

Luaka Bop... Boy that was an obscure one for sure...

Here's one..

TV early 70's... What is S.H.A.D.O ?

Not particularly accurately, no...

But if you generally work with 50mm slabs you could say 1m² is approx $200 and work from there... Round out the numbers a bit...0.6 x 2.5 = 1.5 x $200 = $300...

The metric system of course. It's $12 cheaper... :)

Besides, what if your slab is actually 620mm x 50mm x 2.2m and the cost was say $10.14 / foot? You would still need to use a calculator. It's...

One board foot is 144 cubic inches and is calculated on the nominal size of the board.

24 x 2 x 4 x 8 x 12 = 18432 cubic inches.

18432 / 144 = 128 board feet

Actually it probably depends which book you read.... 25-30% might be a more representative answer...

28%

Well, right now it is... :)

Ahhh that would be the SPV... (Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle).. I was a bit of a Caption Scarlet fan in my younger days... :)

Hi Ralph,
Here is another little secret....

Not trying to be too smart about this but it is the second time you have converted a decimalised imperial measurement into feet and inches...

Chunky ear

Side 6' 11 1/8"
Angle 60°

Every second truss will fall on every third stud...

Studs 0",16,32,48,64,80,96"....
Trusses 0",24,48,72,96"...


Hey Ralph, as I said on a previous post (which I guess you didn't see) why...

Well, you know, if you don't blow your own trumpet...:)

The score was...

NZ 36 England 3

Over to somebody else...

trimmer, tactician, helmsman....

three days and no replies...

Well the answer to this one was in fact

Rodney Marsh (the cricketer) and Rodney Marsh (the footballer) .... (although Liz Ellis was pretty close :) )
anyone else...

good = x dollars
better = x dollars + y dollars
best = x dollars + y dollars + z dollars

or maybe...

good = x dollars
better = x dollars x 2
best = x dollars x 3

Well, I've got no idea on that one Wongo and i'm guessing from the dearth of replies recieved that nobody else has. (either that or everyone is bored with this thread now.. ;)

Ralph, why don't you just say 8' x 3'. We know what you mean even if you are using imperial terms. There's not a lot of point in going to the effort of directly converting your imperial answer to...

ok.. nobody wants to answer that question... (which was 4 btw)

Try this one...

Rugby - 1st test, NZ vs England (the world champions) played today...

Who won and what was the score?... :)

360/12 = 30 degrees per sector.

Internal angles of any triangle = 180 degrees. Triangle is symmetrical, therefore both other angles = 75 degrees. (30 +75 +75 = 180) This is the angle of cut.
...

Correct..

Alright then, one for a certain midget fan... Who are these two gentlemen?

Well I don't know if you were right but here's another one..

2 - Brett Aitken and Scott McGrory... :)


How many medals of any type did NZ win at the Sydney Olympics?...
