Is anyone in the mood to offer a few suggestions about how best to fit the handles. I'm developing an idea of how I might...

Thanks mseimsen,

I spose, like everything, my lack of familiarity in the world of clocks leaves me sounding a little obtuse! BTW, have you had experience of the takane movt's, and what are your...

G'day,

Spoke to Kieth at Smith and Smith (very helpful bloke). They are going to get me the same mov't, delivered for $45! The Takane mov'ts are cheaper, and probably just as good, but I'd...

Knowing this place, there may be more to come before Christmas!!:cold:

I think I'll try the Seiko mov't you suggested!

Thanks for your advice, much appreciated.

Cheers and beers,

Muzz:D

Thanks Walesey,

That will get me started! Any thoughts on Takane (USA) mov'ts (at about $10, from this forum's sponsor)?

Cheers and beers,

Muzz:D

P.S. Just down the road from you at Moss...

My wife and I were given a Seiko Station Clock for our engagement (about 10 years ago) which has since stopped working! A new battery didn't do the trick this time, so I'm guessing its time for me...

I thought the ham sambos tasted a bit funny.......:o

I NEED HELP

Oh sage ones, what do I say when SWMBO spills the words, "Darling, what's a group buy?" Followed buy, "Where did $X (OK $X00) go from the account?":o

Can I come home now, I'm sick of yak milk, yak butter, yak cream and the bloody yak burgers are attrocious!

Cheers and Kumis,

G'day all,

I reckon that between all you rampant human buzzsaws, rabid collectors and out and out toolheads the number of chisels ordered will be approximately 161.5!:doh:

Brett, did you say...

Hey Christos,

Does it help if I go through till stumps on Sat? Happy to do so, just amend the roster before the show to reflect that if you want - otherwise I'll buzz off at 16:00 as requested.
...

TS,

Sorry, not sure if I didn't get your PM re: the extra I owe, or if I managed to delete it.

Anyone else in the same boat?

You'll have to send me bank details again also.

Once more,...

G'day Christos / All,

Top job Christos. Put me down for an hour (or two if needed) on either Friday or Saturday, whichever is needed more! See how it pans out, but if you need me to nominate...

[QUOTE=Bushmiller;1504499]If you're having difficulty with that method, you could try using your fingers:rolleyes::D.

Wow, thats better:doh:. Fewer nose bleeds and less spelling errors:2tsup:,...

Thanks Brett,

Much appreciated, and glad to help out the group - my motives have nothing to do with me wanting some exceptional tools, only the altruistic desire to help my fellow man!:wink: (I'm...

If I'm too late, thats fine - I hate to ask at this late stage, but couldn't help myself.

Sorry,

I missed the answer to the original question - when will the Triton be released in the Cadbury purple colour?

G'day Steve,

I've got a copy of the article and exercise reproduced in mm thanks to a recent course I did at Sturt. If you're interested, PM me your postal addy and I'll get a copy off to you.

Interesting to note that the saw with 52 TPI is a pull saw, I spose it makes sense that a 8 thou saw would not have the rigidity to set up as a traditional western saw?

Cheers and beers,

Well,

Strap me to a dog!!

Apparently the tactic of the day is if your overpriced piece of 'Industrial' furniture doesn't sell on ebay, you re-list it with a $100 higher starting bid.

Thankyou gents,

By way of updates, I have been talking it over with dad. The decision has been made, the lathe is going, whether or not it is replaced at a later date is still to be seen.

Now,...

G'day all,
Just a general question on behalf of my dear old dad! Some time ago he bought a used wood lathe to start his stellar career as a woodturner. It has since been used once (by my brother...

G'day All,

My old man recently had a cleanout, and in time honoured tradition passed all the rubbish he didn't want on to me. Now, to be fair, I did score a nice little Stanley 220 virtually new...

G'day Luckduck,

SJM's suggestion to take a portfolio of your work is worth considering.

I've been through quite a few interviews, and conducted a few too, and the ability to show your...
