Wow! Thanks Guys, my post has created a whole new topic.
I like the idea of not having the additional stick on visor for dry turning, which is the majority of the lathe work I carry out.
However,...

Hi All,

I've been using an Airshield Pro for some time now, and am very pleased with the protection it gives me. However, I've always used a tear-off visor in order to protect the main helmet...

Thanks for all the info. guys, really appreciated.
My box joint jig, like lappa's has a sacrificial backing board, but I don't have a really sharp router bit, and I think this, combined with the...

I've wanted a dado set for some time, but can't afford it at the moment.
As I said above, I've now made the drawers using dovetail jigs on the TS. The joints fitted off the machine, and I'm pretty...

Thanks for the reply. I wanted the drawers to be strong enough to hold some heavy items I have in my workshop. The plywood I have isn't the top grade, and I think this is also making the tear out...

I'm making some drawers for under my bench using 19mm plywood.
Can you give me some advice on what bit to use? I have a router table and have made a jig. The bits I have are straight fluted, but...

Thanks for all the interest, but the machine was sold this afternoon

Please resend your phone no. by PM, it's short of a digit.
Sorry but I can't seem to get my PM working.

I have a Homeshop machine which is now surplus to requirements. The machine consists of a circular saw table and a jointer. All is in good working order and has been used until recently. I had the...

Hi All

I'm in the market for a new lathe and am looking for some advice regarding what features you think are important to consider. What are your thoughts about;
Electronic Variable Speed

Hi China, all set up and cutting really well. Is there a recognised method for setting the blades? I 'nipped' each one in it's slot and then tapped it down flush with the out feed table.
i've also...

Thanks for that China, I'll have another look at it tomorrow, as at the moment I can't see how the screws will reduce the width of the slot.

Sorry China, still trying to work out how to get the attachments loaded. I keep getting the quick reply option.
I've added the photos I took. At 22mm there is virtually nothing to hold on to, at...

Thanks for the photos China, but I'm still struggling to understand how a 22mm knife can be held safely by the securing screws. I've attached photo hopefully showing what I mean. I have assumed that...

Thanks China, that's very good of you.

Hi

I'm a new member who has just acquried a homeshop saw/jointer. Are you able to offer me any help in the purchase and setting up of the jointer knives?

Thanks for the response Dave. I've seen the jig you've mentioned on Youtube. However, on the Homeshop both infeed and outfeed tables can be adjusted for height. So theoretically, once each blade is...

Hi All

I've seen some old threads relating to the Homeshop, and have joined a couple of the threads, but have yet to see any responses.
In the hope of getting a response from someone who has a...

I have just acquired a Homeshop saw/jointer, which I'm sure is in one piece. I live in Redwood Park SA, and would be willing to send you photos, if you need them. I know this is a bit late,...

Hi
I have just got hold of a Behrens Homeshop, which is set up for sawing and jointing. Are there still members who own and use one of these, as I need some help regarding purchasing replacement...
