I am building a motorhome at the moment so have been dabbling in this stuff
Depending on hiw good a setup you are planning but I would suggest something like Renogy gear as it is midrange quality...

Whilst the two saws look similar they are very different in how they operate. Apart from the different guard arrangement the pivot point for cutting bevels is different too so it won’t cut on a track...

You don’t normally see them on building sites but a young electrician was using them yesterday. He said he bought them as a first year apprentice and was going to upgrade but with their 7 year...

I would have over a dozen Makita battery tools and they cop a hiding. I have only broken two impact drivers as a result of dropping from heights, they still work but no longer have reverse function...

I would go the Dewalt without hesitation, the Hikoki might be a good saw too but you don’t see many to get the feedback. The Dewalt has the runs on the board so you know what you are getting

Maybe open up the lock and post up a pic to see if someone can help you out. Very difficult to help you without seeing what is going on

Good for you but I think you were very lucky with the outcome and only because it was Bunnings and their staff don’t care too much about what happens and will take the easiest path.

They were well...

I think the issue is more your attitude and expectations from the organisation may be misaligned

The mens sheds exist to provide an interest and social outlet for the elderly and general mental...

You could try some of the caravan accessories companies. They carry all the replacement window parts and pieces that might work for you

Google bird nesting boxes for some ideas, they sell well. You might even be able to do a deal selling them through some of the bird shops or list on Gumtree

I used this method for years and it will do what the tracks will do with a standard saw. The Festool saw itself achieves a must cleaner cut and another level to what you can achieve out of any...

IMO it is not really worth the hassle, you can order them for different thickness walks but for a one off job like yours I would just replace the jambs for wider ones and pack out the cavity slider...

I think you might be a little out of touch with the current costs of doing business. I am not aware of any employees that get paid less while driving between jobs, it is all part of their working...

On the contrary, a lawyer or other consultant will charge you that and more for just a phone call.The tradesman has travelled to and from your job with an offsider and probably cost him two hours of...

Remove both handles from the door and reassemble, you will most likely find it hasn’t been installed correctly with the lock release knob being in the wrong location so it can’t be rotated correctly...

They are marginally different to the Festool track but that can be adjusted up on the saw. The reason I didn’t buy a Makita track is because I also have the Festool ones so I would need to keep...

Rather than calculate it out just grab your two different widths and mark it out on a piece full size if board or paper and replcate the angle to use on your saw
Depending on the width you often...

Depends a bit on your individual circumstances but the big feature difference with most newer mowers is that they have mulch function that disperses the cuttings back into the lawn. I have a Toro...

A ex Pom carpenter friend went back to the old country for a wedding and bought a number of tools whilst there to bring back.
He just took them out of the box and used them to dirty them up a bit...

If you are buying flatpack cabinets won’t they already come with adjustable shelves to use? Maybe you can order extra shelves so that they match the cabinetry
As far as fixing to the wall, the...

Have a look at the various edisons compressors UNIMAC 50L 3.0HP Silent Oil-Free Electric Air Compressor, Portable, Twin Nitto Outlets

I recently bought the smaller portable 1.5hp 6 litre model and...

Sorry I picked up the wrong post to reply to :doh:

Whilst you might use it for those foods it is totally incorrect to say that is their primary purpose. We don’t eat any of those things and use it for anything you would normally do in an oven.

We...

We use the cheapo one from Target or Kmart, can’t remember which and it does the job just fine. They don’t have the glass door like the one you have shown. Consider the cleaning aspect of whichever...

Whilst your gear might still work it is outdated technology, the newer 18v brushless gear is at a whole new level and then there is the 40v gear which in a lot of instances better again
I...

Agree, this is a very common method for cabinet makers. The downside for the OP might be he doesn’t want to see any fixings?

I wouldn’t even be concerned about the cutter, just go ahead and build them as planned. You cut up alll the melamine sheets with a tungsten saw blade or CNC cutter bit, the Domino is just doing the...

For such a small quantity it will most likely be more economical to get the decking and machine down to thickness. You will be paying a premium for a special order otherwise

Look at Nover as well

Not necessarily this one but you could look for a suitable similar style product

Are you a high power user? I am with Origin Energy and with a 10kw system that has a capped feed in of 5 I am still getting whacked with a decent bill. Last month I fed 400Kwh into the grid and used...

I have a Sydney mate like that, he doesn’t visit his farm in summer because he is scared of snakes, only goes there in winter lol

You would be amazed at how many snake close encounters you have probably already had and not even aware of it. I remember a couple of years ago my son came to visit and asked if I had seen any snakes...

Snake oil in a box

My son is a professional snake catcher so have witnessed many snake encounters. There is nothing to get away from as snakes have no interest in humans other than if we make...

I wouldn’t be surprised if the conversation starts to turn to selling you those items……a scam me thinks

Glue whatever lining you want with polyurethane caulking gun adhesives that Sikafex, Bostik, Soudal etc supply. We glue fibre cement lining sheets to walls and ceilings without mechanical fixings...

Another option if you want slippery/ smooth is a sheet of melamine.

Reviving an old thread but wanted to give some feedback
I changed over to this cord about a month ago after using another USA made brand for a few years ( can’t recall the brand) and this is...

I would be hand priming the fuel pump as suggested first up as it may have created an air lock over time, the fuel should still be ok but worth checking.

70x35 will do the job fine. A metal garden shed is another option to consider

Regardless of brand I would consider upgrading your glass from 4mm for sound and thermal transmission. 6.38mm laminated is a good budget option without going into the costlier performance grade glass

About 5 years ago we had a big commercial job using Ironbark. The milled material was excellent and came from a mill down Eden way. As it turned out the logs were all sourced from Qld and the NSW...

I highly recommend you seek insurance through a broker. It isn’t necessarily cheaper but they ensure you get the type of cover that is right for you.
I have had two claims that my broker handled...

The short answer is yes you absolutely can do it and I have done it as well.
The bigger problem is the dust and it finds its way into everything in the house so you either create a spray booth type...

Like Ray, I also use the urethane adhesives from Sika but mostly Soudal brand because they are much cheaoer to buy in bulk
Liquid Nails goes brittle over time

From my travels you don’t see much of it

Whilst there is nothing wrong with the Bosch brand you can see the limitations arising from the get go. If you look at what the tradies are buying you will see Makita and Milwaukee dominate the scene...

That is a low power draw. Most batteries will do the job, an AGM will cycle deeper but that is not going to be much of a concern in your case.
You could add a solar panel to charge ut or put the...
