If it is only pens and small things (bottle stoppers, rings etc), you could do a lot worse than the inexpensive Neje DK-BL 1500mw laser engraver from Gearbest. That only engraves 42mm x 42mm flat...

Many thanks for that - I will definitely do that from now on

Kindest regards

I do like the tip about the steel screws and it has been working perfectly following that method.
Many thanks
Paul

Many thanks for the help. I tried your way Alex and it worked. The dowels are all glued in and with some new screws, hopefully I can fit the hinges tomorrow

Regards and again thanks
Paul

I made the mistake of using the screws that came with the small hinges for a box that I am making. The hinge itself is only 1" (25mm) in width so you can imagine how small the screws are. Anyway...

Hi and sorry to bother you. Yesterday I answered an e-mail from Ern Reeders about the Woodturning article on cyrogenic tools. It was necessary to give my e-mail and I just wondered, now that the...

Hi Rssr - if you let me know your e-mail address, I have June 2007 Woodturning and the article which is on pages 28 and 29. I will scan it and send it to you.

Thanks ever so much all and no I didn't take offence. To be honest, I knew that Australians have a different sense of humour at times and just put it down to that - I certainly wasn't upset. I...

In the UK, this stuff is made by Lazertran and called 'Waterslide Decal Paper For Inkjet Printers' and on the face of it, looks brilliant - the video is even more impressive. I bought a pack of 8...

Hi - We don't have many unusual woods in the UK and last year, I bought a piece of timber from an importer of Australian woods. Yesterday I made a pen from this pink wood that you seem to be able to...
