Ha ha! Sorry, a rookie mistake. I started a thread on this very topic without noticing this one. :B Mod, maybe you can just copy and paste my comments in that orphan thread to here, and delete my...

Did you gents divide your time between Bunnings and Masters, or did you have a set preference for one or the other? (probably for the former.) I heard that the clean, shiny floors of Masters put off...

I notice in the guide booklets that while Bosch has a German street address all of the manufacturing takes place in China.

But the tool still feels like German precision and durabilty.

I guess...

Yes, the self-sharpening blade edge is attached to the guide jaw. Every so often I'll screw it back on and run it to sharpen it up. From above the blade is still guarded by plastic even without the...

After reviewing the suggestions I decided on the unit that was closest to my wish drawing in the OP.

So I betook myself down to Sydney Tools Taren Point to purchase it. This is a very blokey...

No, FF was just referring to doubt as to my abilty to make accurate frames! :C

Yes, Ian I get a regular supply of free fruit boxes from my local shop. They put them out the back for the recycler...

The fruit boxes are manufactured to the highest strength standard because they have to transport fragile food. What I send is even more fragile. There is nothing else that comes up to the structural...

Thanks for the idea, but I'm trying to avoid anything too manual - I need battery assist.

Thanks everyone, I will research these options further and let you know the results.

I have to send a lot of fragile prints in the mail and to protect them I cut two A4 size cardboard inserts from fruit boxes to reinforce the envelope.

These fruit boxes have to transport food, and...

Of course, your car first has to actually make it onto the road! :hihi:

I hope you get this gag. Anyone? har har!

Just in case you've never encountered the condition before...

G'day guys,

This isn't me in the photo, but the bloke in the tree was cutting back some branches on a grevillea that had grown over the roof and was blocking up the gutters with...

You've nailed one of my weaknesses tea lady - railing against things outside of anyone's power to change! :balloon:

Yes, aluminum is not cheap, either in cost or energy needed to make it - someone called it electricity in solid form (or something like that) so it was in Kit Kat's (Nestles?) interests to make the...

re that latter point, like I said, this forum is the perfect place to raise the issue with practical gents used to thinking in three dimensional terms.

I was wondering about that latter point too...

I have an unexpected ally in Fence furniture!

Extremely brittle and thin chips I think have a justification here for the air space left (though twisties don't) but that is a fig leaf as thin as...

G'day Peter,

Well I was searching for the right place to post this, but I missed this one "nothing to do with woodwork." I struggled therefore, using 'wood production and wastage"...

I suppose this subject is only marginally related to wood - but it certainly is to wood production and wastage.

More than that though, it is relevant to all of us as we all buy breakfast cereal....

The OP should go straight to the source to solve his problem - the great English second rower, Viv Thicknesse.

It is said he is a world authority on the subject.

I'm trying to get all of the Doestoyevski at the moment. :U

Here it is!

I was thinking of sending this tool to - who is that maniacally enthusiastic tool restorer? - aah, that's right - Fence Furniture. In fact, if he thinks it should be restored, he may have it for...

Jesus. I'm lucky if you read six different paragraphs of mine - let alone the same one six times. :biggrin2:

They are indeed tough to get working properly. I think my total offering in ten years has been 4 that work properly. Baz is the best at them.[/QUOTE]


Thanks, BG, I appreciate that.

I think they must make grammatical sense too, as a sentence, and not just be all set up just to enable a payoff at the end, as with "sentimentalist." That does not make sense on face value as well....

Oh, and Vincent you a message which I hope you get before lanterns the power off.[/QUOTE]

Labr@ these are so lame, even Austentayshus would have rejected them. Which is a good point of me to make....

I swear Labr@ just got in ahead of me! I had literally just turned on the computer to write:

"Hey, do you Fence Furniture or are you totally legit?"

Then I was going to say, there's one right...

Doing! : - 1

You're right - there is one there. I've got a lot to learn!

Thanks Fence! But we'll have to work out another name for them, as there are too many exceptions to the hidden "verb" rule. (As with my last one.) Getting a name for them was the aim of this thread,...

That is a good technique! I'll remember that.

As for me, I always wanted to learn more about woodworking, but fewtel me.

That's cool Fence, I forgot to add a smiley face to my entry.

Well, I was sensing pain you see, via the body's largest organ, the skin. In this case that area of it that makes up the interior of...

Mate, you have got the gist of it.

Your second one is more Austentayshus than it is right on message, but it is good in its own right as a varietal.

Your third one works much better if you...

Well, this a very true story (and one we must all have shared at one time or another.)

I was in a dental chair once in rather bad pain from the dentist's brutal attentions. As a consequence, I...
