Have you used their paint in an airless sprayer before?

For undercoat, my usual method is to spray, then backbrush into all the nooks and crannies of the wood to completely fill the grain. Then...

Hi everyone,

I'm making two sets of timber garage/shed doors... they'll be on sliding hardware. Approx size of 1900x1500 each.

All joinery will be mortise and tenon... although if I get a hold...

I mean if I'm being honest, they're really not worth five times as much as a decent jigaw from any of the major tool brands. But I'm at a stage in life where I'm now buying tools that are generally...

So did the 489927 end up being the correct purchase?

So an update for anyone who is keen on a P1CC in Australia.

As mannetje mentioned, I did look on eBay. For the base kit you'd be looking at around $950 AUD landed, of which you'll then need to...

So I had my heart set on a Mafell P1CC jigsaw which I was going to purchase from Axminster. Sadly, they're now not available for delivery to Australia and the only retailer in Australia I can find is...

Thank you, kind sir.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find a pair of blind corner overlay hinges for a corner kitchen cupboard. Hafele and Blum seem to produce them but I can't seem to find anywhere to buy them in...

Well damn, no longer available. Well, that helps my decision I suppose if it's sold out...

I'm needing a router table in the near future (going to do some skirting for a new house) - does anyone have experience with this:
...

Hi there,

Another owner - i'm a DIY guy who bought it in preparation for building my own house.

Very accurate, very smooth and easy to use - but as homey said, dust extractoin is crap. That...

Hi guys,

Just bought myself a Makita RT0700C router - first time I've used one since woodwork in high school (and obviously a much bigger one then). I'll be using it initially for hinge mortices...

Thanks Stewie :)

Can I ask a general question - what is preferrable for kitchen cabinets - Melamine MDF or Melamine particleboard? I would think the MDF would be a bit easier to work with and...

They look fantastic, David. Yes, i was intending to paint mine all over.

Can I ask what the purpose of the laminate adhesive is that you put on the back of the doors? Is it to assist with reducing...

Thanks NRB.

So many options! As you can probably tell I'm very new to this and there seems to be 1,000 solutions to each 'problem'.

Instead of cutting out the centre of the MDF, could you have...

I should also ask - for the inset should I be using plywood or MDF? These will be painted and not stained. I believe the MDF will give a better finish painted?

Thanks guys,

So no question then that the panel has to float. Interesting idea on the mouldings nrb, I'll definitely consider that.

I'll look into a joiner - I think the Dewalt would be more in...

Hi guys,

The mrs wants some shaker style cabinets for our new kitchen - i'll be using pine and plywood. Pine for the frame and plywood for the inset. I'm just wondering which way I should build...

Thanks Ian and yes, I had realised that as well - going to enlarge them to 2.1 wide. Not ideal but it'll have to do.

Thanks for the reply guys. Unfortunately I don't think I'm at a level yet for M&T joints - can't wait to be but still a while to go.

Rob, thanks for the alternative regarding half laps or bridles,...

Long time lurker here. I was hoping for some advice on my first big project which is by no means amazing to the expeirenced people on here but is something i'd like to get some advice on....
