Hi Bevan,

I will take these off your hands.

Will send you a PM.

Thanks

Hi All,
Finally got around to finishing this bench. Wanted to thank everyone for the advice. I really helps to bounce some ideas off people and come up with a good solution. I ended up going with...

Yep.

Rails on the frame are about 27mm thick.

Dimensions of the cross-members are not yet finalised, by I had in mind 40mm thick x 60mm wide.

My original plan was to use pine for the...

So, seems like a lot of doubt in the pocket holes, and I do tend to agree that it's not the application they're designed for. A lot of pressure would be placed on a couple of screws - especially the...

The force is not too much of a concern. Because of the design, the cushion top is not actually fixed to the frame at all. The top is screw from the underside to the cross members and the the legs...

Thanks Poundy.

The cushion top will be inset inside the frame. I will use 12mm ply as the bast of the cushion top, so these supports need to sit 12mm (plus allowance for the upholstery wrap) below...

Hi Johh,

Thanks for the advice. Do you think I'd need to use specialised pocket hole screws for this - such as Kreg? Or can I use a generic self drilling pan-head screw? From my reading on this...

Hi All,

I'm a newbie to woodworking and this forum and I find myself in need of some advice from those more experienced.

I am making a very basic cushion bench for my wife and I got a little...

Thanks mate, more good advice. Will definitely be taking that on board.
As far as entry level goes, I've seen some decent reviews on the Hafco T13S, so it might be a good place to start.

Thanks mate. The bug has certainly got me, along with some lofty promises I might have made my wife about building a large scale shelving unit for her hair salon. Now I've got to come up with the...

Thanks guys, I appreciate the advice.

Crowie, good to hear about the dewalt. I had read good reviews on those, but wasn't sure if it actually stood up much better than some of the cheaper bench...

Hi All, I am looking for a jointer and a thicknesser for a project upcoming with some rough cut timber. I need to clean up the 200x30mm timber ready for joining into 400mm wide shelves.
I'm just...

Spewing. Wish you'd told me about this when I picked up the table saw!!:U

Thanks mate. I haven't run it up yet, but it's in good nic. Joel had it running nicely, so I don't expect too many problems. Good to know the spares are available.

Just to confirm and make sure I'm in line with the marketplace forum rules.

"I'll take it" subject to the viewing arranged for tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks

Hi Joel,

After 5 works well. My office is in Brendale, so I can swing past after work and take a look.

How heavy is the saw? Are we going to be able to load it in the back of a 4wd dual cab...

Hi All,

Really appreciate everyone's advice on here.

I think maybe my eye's got big on me, but I don't like doing things by halves. I generally like to buy the best of something.

Hi JK,

Are you available anytime tomorrow for me to check it out?

Hi JK,
Where abouts are you located?
Thanks
Toby

Hi admin, for some reason my posts aren't being uploaded? Says they will be pending until admin can review them but they never make it. I'm a new user, only signed up today. Got the confirmation...

Hi Keano,

I'm very interested to keep an eye on this thread and see what decision you make. I am in a very similar situation. I started looking at the job site type saws like the Dewalt and Bosch...

I'd be interested in third dibs if the others fall through. Thanks

Hi All,
I have been trawling through threads and youtube vids trying to collate some information and advice on a suitable table saw to set myself up. While there are HEAPS of threads and plenty of...
