None on mine either and 6km front to back play. I think you need a bit of clearance and slack in case threads get dirty and also to accommodate the quick release ...that sort of thing ...once it's...

Thanks IW hehe yep the bench is getting a bit rough.
Making a shelf atm, spotted a grub hole right in the line of sight, plan on drilling a hole in the middle of it and driving in a twig...

I always remember some american woodworker, made a pristine traditional tall cabinet...
then wacked a 4 in nail in the side of it and bent it over a bit...said it all about preciousness

very kind thankyou :)

Cheers :)

There was a woodbutcher called Pete
His workbench had taken the heat
He patched it with glee
using part of a tree
and eventually a retreat he did beat

This is a cautionary tale that I hope assists other reckless souls :)

I should explain that the workbench is an old school one I got at an auction
at the local Education Board workshop decades...

I like the way you are thinking :)
I gave a row of drawsaws the old knee and twist the other day, the assistant didn't know where to look.

sorry to resurrect this thread but it is a good one :)

Thanks chaps :)
looks like people tend to buy sliding table saw rather than these.

Hi Guys,
I am trying to get some user feedback on saws like this.
I wonder what are the downsides of such setups compared with sliding table saws ?...

Thanks for the link SilentC
Makes for sober reading
Pete

Thanks Guys
will search thread for 'pushsticks' :)
cheers
Pete

I read a few pages of it. Just puzzled how people can think they would have any call for it.
cheers
Pete

Excuse me resurrecting this thread :)
Apart from use in schools I can't see the point in this thing.
Surely the use of pushsticks takes care of any possibility of finger contact ?
Is it just a...

Thanks Mate
Jacks haven't got this line it seems
This outfit in Nelson seems to have a bit of a range.
Really need to see them in the flesh
Pete

Yes it does thanks Mat :)
a couple of different bits on it.
Looks like a bit of pick and mix on these things...

cheers

Hi Guys,
Well the choice over here is a bit poor compared with Aussie...
they changed the blinking model names too.:U
Could any of you good folks have a look at this "TS-10A" sold in NZ...

Thanks guys, just to follow up, i've done some more research (cheers for the link ausdesign) and the pdf on the galintel site have the following:

Hi all, i want to remove 2 brick archways and square them off to make more modern. I've done a search and found some threads but nothing specific to the size of lintel.

Someone mentioned a 5mm x...

Thanks toddles, some good advice there. Using gyprock glue only without screws or clouts will definitely make the job easier to plaster afterwards. I'll also check out the rondo for the framing.

Eastie, i'm not sure why you think this job is considered shoddy crap and dodgy? What is wrong with covering in a window using a frame with 450 centres and nogs which is then gyprocked over? No-one...

Thanks bigshed, i never thought of using a router! ...mainly because i don't own one. If i can get a cheapie from bunny's, i'll try this method. Yeah the outside will look bad but it's down the side...

May i ask how it would simplify the process? Do you mean that it would be somehow be easier to cover it up by removing the window?

I was thinking that leaving the window in place would be less...

Hi all, i've got a window approx 1800H x 900W in the lounge which i want to cover up with gyprock so it is flush with the wall.

I will be leaving the window (aluminium frame) in place and will...

Hi all, i have sanded back the internal steps in my townhouse and wondering if oil or estapol is the best to use. It will be a rental so i'm after something low maintenance and not too slippery. The...

I did this about 2 weeks ago and used a 20mm nap roller on a 270mm rack to make the job a bit quicker. Painting a textured ceiling is also easier because you don't see any minor blemishes as easily...

I'd also recommend the 100mm angle grinder (XU1 brand for about $18) with a diamond blade (about $10 for a cheap set of 2 at Bunnies). You can dry cut them no problems and also do tricky little...

Hiya, i also have to do a similar job and pull up the old tiles over a timber floor and retile. It's in a highset post-war house.

Do you recommend villaboard for the tile underlay or is FC...

Hi all, can anyone please recommend a good plumber in inner Melbourne?

I have been using my usual plumber for the past 2 years but his prices are starting to get a bit ridiculous... $76 to...

G'day all, i'm also going to use some of this "Wet Area Panelling" for the shower over bath and want to put it straight over the old tiles.

Is this possible, or should i remove the tiles first...
