Cynical, but on the balance of probabilities more than likely true.

Other considerations,

I believe Timbecon have released an updated version of their 13" deluxe thicknesser, to overcome a few gremlins.

If you plan on using figured woods a true spiral cutter...

I have the Sherwood unit as well. Aside from an initial warranty claim the unit has performed well. Having the true helical head with TCT inserts is really a step up from any lunch box style straight...

It's a bit of clever timber engineering! Nicely done too.

The rafters must be full length and are cantilevered over the central hall / room and actually support the beam. The same may be done with...

I have to agree with Ian, in my experience the Hairy Oak from Paul's area is far superior to the HO we get in FNQ. It seems to be larger in section, with less splitting than ours, but then beggars...

Very difficult to come by these days. I sincerely wish you luck. Hopefully some one may have some.

You could try Mayne Australia Specialty Timbers Pty Ltd John is a forum member.

That has quite a "sail area" so will require some decent tie down weights etc to resist uplift should you get a decent gust or rain squall.

The other matter to consider is that being in Cairns...

I think we all fall into the trap of "I will use that one day." It's very difficult to cull some stuff.

I still have some of my Dad's (a builder) power (Makita made in Japan) tools and hand tools...

Yeah, bitumen limits your options somewhat.

Being in a publicly accessible area, a car park, I guess you will also have to consider the "what if's" - what if a gust of wind lifts the temporary...

Not a cheap solution but I would be looking at caravan annex type solutions or perhaps a cheaper option such as the 4WD awnings - say 2 x 3m with detachable sides / awning extensions wit poles & guy...

Google "Difference Between Router and Trim Router?" a mini or a flat bed truck? :wink:

Why the rpm difference? Short answer is cutter "cutting speed" the rate at which the cutting edge is...

Some helpful fact sheets

Test date = date of last test. So a bottle is "in test" or valid from test date plus 10 years IF the cylinder is undamaged and in good condition. (see below)

Wood ID is risky even with a piece you can touch, smell, weigh, scratch, check the end & all facets of the grain, and even...

I'll take it if Clearout doesn't.

They are still in business it seems ... You searched for hinges - The Beardmore Collection

I have no idea what the contract arrangements were re the job, however the tiler really should be the one cleaning them!

...... but still screw over the "little guy" and their customers who are duped into believing they are supporting UK crafts people & small industry.

Don't be discouraged, they are still close to the best and strongest SRG's ever made.You have to spend a lot, and I do mean a LOT of money to find a peer.

It's not that difficult to compensate for...

Yeah, if you can't get close to the description name Googling isn't all that friendly at times.

Soon Ai will be predicting the "good ideas I haven't even thought of yet." (one of PowderPost's...

Unfortunately, his position is not unique. There are many small makers, and inventors, out there who have had their Intellectual Property appropriated by others that know full well the "little guy"...

This maybe of interest to some, a generic Bearing Race & Seal Driver Set - 10 piece - Just a moment...

My gripe is that there are no filters for or moderation of "unsafe" content. Just churn it over to make a squillion on social media platforms.

When we go back 200 or so years, before unions I...

You are way more polite that I am ....... :~

What really pisses me off is that this sort of c$ap gets millions of views. Yet content providers who offer very sound advice from years of injury...

With bearing pullers, and particularly the more comprehensive kits, you can generally swap the arms / legs / claws around to the configuration you want.

There are other options available from sewing & craft stores - No sew hemming tape; Heat N Bond etc

Heat N Bond Original White

Some PVA glue formulations give of more Acetic acid when they cure than others. PVA glues also vary in formulations and pH (acidity) with some marketed as "low acid." All are considered very safe and...

Also look at concrete "cancer" in saline environments.

Both brickwork fretting and concrete "cancer" are strongly linked / correlated not only with beach side areas, but also to tradesmen, and or...

even better to use a bearing puller if you have one to extract the cups. Requires a solid flat bar (40 x 6 mm or similar) to straddle the head stock spindle housing.

TOLEDO 100mm Twin Leg...

That's some serious damage.

Looks like the adjacent piers have been repaired, but unfortunately it will continue unless the rising damp is addressed by completely rebuilding the piers, installing...

I like how you think. :D

I was thinking it's a ceremonial mace used to celebrate the meeting of kindred wood turners. :)

It seems that with all this legislation we would be on top of crime....

Yes sad indeed, I have found them very helpful in the past.

Sadly since the COVID support ceased (Jobkeeper etc) the numbers of small business insolvencies are rising above pre-pandemic numbers....

There could very well be a burgeoning market for dual service art pieces in the car crime capital of FNQ. :D

Nicely done btw.

Over a decade ago the local wood turning club was approached by a...

We are not jealous ..... much! :rolleyes:

If I repeat that 1000 times I may convince myself. Thou shalt not covert thy fellow wood workers wood stash. :C

Good recommendations IF a DIY'er can maintain production quality with machining T&G or loose tongue. When you calculate the lineal meters of flooring required then multiply by 2 there is a lot of...

I would also add the comment that it is a real art to lay a natural timber T&G polished floor that will "behave" - not cup, shrink / expand excessively.

Selecting face up side of a board is not...

Crikey we we using the old aluminium bodied Skill circular saws as track saws back in the late 1960's.

The very brief history of wood floor boards sort of runs like this,



wany edge pit sawn wide boards face nailed (if you could afford iron nails that is.)
shot edge boards
ship lap boards...

I don't believe you have confused the issue with the post installation of the dowels. As you say one way to explore the (possible?) construction methodology.

When you read the history of Japanese...

Very sad indeed. Looks like another long term business gone.

Makes one wonder about the legality of claims made online about a "moving sale" and buyers purchasing on the impression that they are...

I disagree.

Your contention that the dowels "lock" the joint (in your proposed method) is only true IF the dowels extend past the joint into the stock. Then it is effectively a pined joint, not...

Cairns has all dealerships, but like here in TSVL, depends more on what ones you trust - if any. Another mate on here has been through the wringers trying to purchase a ute thru COVID and all the PC...

One thing if you want power make your decision sooner rather than later due to the new emissions standards on the way and the associated tax hikes.

Are you sure its the steel?

P&N SRG's are a great tool however some were manufactured with the flute ground offset to the centerline to the tool profile.

A tip if / when you get it serviceable - don't disengage the quick release mechanism while the vice is under load - it very quickly destroys the half nuts. Also keep the mechanism well lubed.

Massive Warehouse Clearance: Our Biggest Ever Sale! (mailchi.mp)

Says "massive moving clearance" sale.

Look at the high level skill required in setting out then making the joints in his Hishigata box and the geometry of the joint set out.

If the work pieces are splitting at the recommended and slightly oversize pilot sizes then I would suggest that they are highly likely to split at some time in the future if the anchor is coaxed into...

Agreed, esp the pride in making.

In general the wider population seem to place different values on items in modern times, not so much in long term value, but more on the latest & greatest and...

I like the practicality of the wheelie bin idea but see one huge barrier for most considering this idea - the sheer bulk and weight of a full wheelie bin of fine sawdust especially considering the...

Grasshopper, like all the great masters the only way to learn their secrets is to serve an indentured apprenticeship with them and to accept the associated obligation to not share that knowledge.
