A retired friend has offered me his Jet Contractor table saw. 10" blade 1.5HP. I was about to go and buy a TSC-10HB from Carbies but as they looked very similar the Jet offer seemed OK. The table...

Thinking of buying one but noticed the motor is only 1.75HP when compared with others like the TSC-10HB etc they have 3HP. Anybody find them underpowered?

Can anyone recommend a sawmiller in the Collie district with a portable mill? Prefer a bandsaw cause they are quicker but not fixed on it.
Please me on 0438 931 054

I've not welded before and would like to read up before doing the deed. I've read a few things on stick(Arc), Mig and Tig but would value the names of a book or two for the beginner. All looks pretty...

How about posting the completed spreadsheet as I'm in the market for a bandsaw. I'm leaning towards the jet 18x. Could you email it to [email protected]
Many thanks

Can anyone put me on to a professional tree lopper in the Collie / Donnybrook / Balingup area ? I have a permit to remove 8 Jarrah trees, 15M tall and approx .8 to 1.2 in diameter. I'm way to scared...

Hi Qw,
I gave the table away to make room for the next project. Sorry can't give a report.
By the way, I apply the oil sparingly (1 coat) and then wipe vigorously to get any excess off. Feels like...

I have a large number of 8x2 and 8x3 Jarrah boards that I would like to slice to approx 1" boards. Once I purchase a Bandsaw this is.

Hi Baz,
The Livos Oil is called Kunos. Often used in flooring I'm told. Waterproof and hard wearing but only time will tell.

Just finished this piece. 1200mm long x 600mm wide x 40mm thick. Finished with Livos Oil.
What do you think of the timber pattern?

I use a lot of Hard Burnishing Organoil and was wondering if I should be using something to "fill" the grain before applying the Oil. The surface appears very smooth before applying the oil but I...

Well, I've seen some fantastic work on this BB over the last 12 months so its about time I posted a pic or two.

I have a supply of green JH slabs from 1 - 1.5 wide and about 2M long. Also 1m wide by 2.7 long. All 60mm. Call 0438 931 054 for a price. I'm in Perth.

Time to learn something new about veneering and inlaying. Can anyone recommend a book that explains this stuff in clear simple terms with lots of pics? Prefer someone that talks about and has...

It's very green.
I presume leaving something that thick would take 10 years to dry therefore it must be cut into sizable slices. For the finished product of 10mm should I go for 19mm slices? Dam...

I'm using a 2 part clear resin to fill largish holes and often get air bubbles. How do I get rid of them. I've tried poking them with a fine needle but I'll be there for years. What are the easier...

When it comes to drying I'm told 1 year per inch plus 1 more at the end. eg. 2" timber = 1 year for each inch plus 1 more equals 3.

I've got lucky and have been offered a Jarrah log 9.5 metres long and from about 700mm up to 1500mm in diameter. Absolutely miles too much wood for me so I'll cut it up into various sizes and store...

There appears to be lots of advice for a eastern friends but how about the West Coasters consider a syndicate and get several cubes in one hit of JH, Marri, Sheoak and whatever else they have by the...

There aren't that many of us but I don't know any McGooooo's in Adelaide.

Thanks for the feedback. I should have explained my question better as I'm quite familiar with clear resins and epoxy mixed with ocres but I'm looking to fill very small holes/joints with something...

To match up holes in Jarrah I use powder from the orbital sander mixed with aquadhere into a paste and on she goes. Sand it down next day and it comes out fairly close. I read an article the other...

I've been researching the price and various types of Jarrah that can be purchased and found both price and type vary tremendously. The types include "Normal", "Curly" and "Birdseye" and the price...
