I saw this deal popup. https://www.timbecon.com.au/sherwood-13in-deluxe-thicknesser-with-helical-spiral-head

$999 with a helical spiral head. I'm not sure how it compares to the others but it...

I'm looking some guidance on value of the 10 slabs of Himalayan cedar that were professionally slabbed on site just over 2 years ago when we removed the large tree on our front yard. They have been...

I made a similar sized one on the cheap a few years back out of 12mm MDF, 6g 25 mm screws and pva glue to hold it together. I also used glass, price wasn't too bad from memory - I just doubled up the...

I went down on Saturday and though long and hard about getting the Scheppach wetstone grinder for $199. Didn't get it, got a mobile base that was $10 off I think and a few odd and ends.

A soon as...

Well I gave it a run this weekend. I set the infeed and outfeed tables slightly higher than the main table and got everything nice and parallel. Ran a small piece of pine through - came out nice.

Yes, I was rather pleased with myself. I boasted to my wife a few times what a deal I'd done.

No, nothing signed, just the credit card receipt. Actually there was no mention of warranty at all....

I was in Bunnings yesterday and they were clearing the last PT330 for $199. I didn't have the car so I came back but it was gone. The display model was still there and after a bit of negotiation, I...

I got a 2nd hand RTA300 that has the same mounting plate, I hate it. Luckily it was already setup for the Big Triton so I didn't have to make any adjustments. I have found it painful to get the...

I was just in Bunnings Lidcombe and saw a 1400W router on the top shelf. Hoping this was one dug out of the vault at $99, I took it up for a price check but alas, $288.

After another look, I saw...

Congrats, looks fantastic. SWMBO suggested that I might want to start making one for my little girl, so thanks for the inspiration.

Good on ya mate, I've sent a PM so hopefully we can catchup.

The display model was still at Bunnings Lidcombe today, on the specials table marked down to $250, however I'm sure you could get them to look up the code. I can pick it up on Monday if anyone wants...

I just ducked into the local Bunnings and they are still scanning at full price there.

While there, I spoke to a kid with a scanner and we went through half the Triton range, nothing else scanned...

I just showed SWMBO the bed and she liked it but said it would be a pain to change the sheets. Probably not your problem but something I didn't think of so maybe you haven't either.

I went to B in Lidcombe and they had the display one on a table knocked down to $250!! No one was around to ask about it at the time so I didn't bother. I never liked that store.

Yep, although it hasn't been altogether smooth sailing, I'm still very happy with the deals I've got and will continue to keep an eye out for more bargains (got to love RSS feeds). I'm just jealous...

I actually work just down the road from Carbatec in Sydney, I told a workmate about the router bits and he went to Carbatec at lunch, only cost him a dollar or two more for the same bits, no postage,...

I keep hearing about these awesome freebees, I kind of feel left out:(. I made a few orders and every one has been stuffed in some way, no 36T stock, then the wrong sandpaper. I somehow ended up...

This is great, I've been on the look out for a decent set of bits... Although I think I might have overdone it, but I'm sure I won't think that when they arrive!

Thanks for the priceusa.com.au heads up. I've checked out their site and there is a link to a lengthy whirlpool forum thread. Reading through this, it looks like a brilliant option - especially as...

This will be my first show. I keep hearing about them and am looking forward to it for sure.

Can anyone give me a heads up on what to expect, sounds like a bit of a bargain hunt - I'm looking out...

Just found this thread, great stuff! Plenty of truths, half truths and misinformation all round.

I've built a career supporting MS products and they certainly make some great software... and some...

I've been thinking about getting the big Triton router and looked at the Northwood deal the other day. Finally decided that the router bits would probably make this the best deal for me but it...

Triton don't provide a RRP. They have this in their FAQ's: http://triton.com.au/faq.php?id=17

Just Tools currently list them at $199.00. http://justtools.com.au/prod2172.htm

Not sure with regards to what application but you could run "charmap" (assuming you have Windows). This will list all the characters available to you for the font you choose. You can then select...

Ah, there is nothing like a good old PC v Mac discussion (argument)! BTW, A list from macdailynews.com (or similar) isn't really balanced! I've always used PC's because I like to tinker, I have 3...

I think this must be the external enclosure only. The going rate for a cheap 2.5" 160GB HDD is over $100. If not, go and buy it, it's a bargain!

As for a Flash drive, you can double the capacity...

I want to sand the floor in our back room to use as the kids playroom. It's 6x3m with 100mm Cypress Pine boards. There was carpet glued on it and I've pulled this up and scraped off the remaining...

I think iinet are one of the few who have an Aussie based Helpdesk. As Big Shed pointed out, http://whirlpool.net.au/ is a great place to research(as good as woodworkforums, but for internet).

I stumbled on this, should answer some questions, or add to the confusion!

The best way to find out what Windows thinks it the Windows directory is to ask Windows :).

The easiest way to do this is use the set command in a DOS prompt (start, run, cmd). Just type set and...

I was with iinet using a netgear for a couple of years. The one time I needed support they still helped out OK but couldn't tell me how to get to certain setting screens, which was fine with me.

Let us know how it goes. I've been looking at the dollar and eyeing up the prices in the states and there is a huge gulf in the prices. For the price difference of a combo kit between here and US, it...

I second the Adobe Type Manager being the issue. Had the same issue a few years back and that was the problem (from memory)

Good Luck!
