I would instal a second line (sander side of tin) with a blast gate. You could adjust the suction to suit the item your using at the time.

I feel victim to buying a cheep bramar saw from ebay, it had all the right specs and price @ under $ 200.00 . Delivered in a short time etc. very happy with the purchase! Until I had to use it!!!...

Thanks, based on that, I my have to plan out more jobs, to spread the cost. Cheers jason

290038Hi, I have a retaining wall half completed, built from old railway sleepers. Before I run out and buy another 25 odd sleepers @ $30 a pop. I considered having a portable mill cut the logs I...

Progress on the B/S so far, unwilling to let the floating shelf idea rest, I redesigned it and i'm quite happy with the result, more mini orb inserts will be used to...

Hi shedhand, that price looks right to me. Cheap actually.
49.99 divide by 0.9 for exchange rate = 55.54
freight x 1.25 = 69.43
margin 40%. Divide by 0.6 = AU$ 115.71

Hi old Grains, I remember being at this stage, still looking back I still can't believe the lounge room I'm in, was only a paddock a few short years ago! You might have to trade in your silver...

Spent the weekend finishing of the shelf's, then got start on the box for the middle frame, didn't want to use the floor boards as they have flutes underneath. So cleaned up some...

Hi Ian, how are things progressing? I've not used the Thompsons sealer, don't know much about it. Like most things woodworking its trial and error.

270858A little more done, used marking tape to set out the shelf's, what's worked out on the sketch pad, sometimes dosen't look right once in place. But I'm happy with the final set out. The box in...

Hi Ian,
this looks like a great project! The top will really pop after you work it. I'd be getting everything flat again, removing as much grey as possible. Repairing any holes with timber inserts ,...

Progress with the book case, built the middle frame to size, rounded the edges on all frames and rebated for the mini orb, that needed little chisel work to complete. Finish prep for the first few...

My iPad show these photos, the right way up, not sure how to rotate once on the thread. Any help or direction? Manage attachments doesn't have a rotate button??

Hi all, this is biggest project I've taken on! I'd built some fighter fish tank stands for my sons pet store. One of the sales rep also a part time Vet, spotted them and wanted a book case and buffet...

Great idea for an Aussie show! Can you make the DVD of the show available for general sale, unlike the NYW. I watched I few of the eps of the Milton workshop, the fella's were dead fish and boring to...

Yep this before shot shows the gard on the thicknesser. I usually sit it on the trailer and push the shavings in, for clean up later. But this last lot of hardwood I've got, has a real rich carbon...

259635The dust extraction in the past has been a bit tricky for this machine, but I rose to the challenge with some left over PVC box drain and a blast gate at each end!

"Pattern maker" is not something you hear to often, more "CNC operator". And he probably loves MDF! Moving a 2 tonne car/truck around the shed in or out, is an easier task the plonking one of these...

I'd seriously like these machines in my own work shop, but the practicality and initial cost is daunting, if they were for sale. I have the room but... I like the idea better lugging timber down to...

I had the same problem about 3 months ago, the table saw was about 600kgs. I got it loaded on a pallet, picked it up with my 8x5 trailer, to get it home. Then I had to wait 4 days, for the neighbour...

The triton wood rack will be very useful. I had mine bolted to the brick wall under the eve, then a tarp hanging from the facia. It holds a lot of timber, had it like this for about 3 years, then we...

Hi paddyjoy, I'd be headed for the building recycle yard, they would have lots of hard wood to choose from, for the frame and decking floor boards for the top and shelfs. The hardwood stands the test...

Hi Mat, Ive used the marine varnish may times, on outside projects,but not with Merbau. Most timber will lech if not protected, use the varnish as a sealer on all sides, and an extra few coats on...

Check out the web site thors hammer, it's a mob in The ACT that demolish the older buildings, and repurpose the timber to tables, doors benches etc. they use a German product called osmo, to stain...

Hi scally, have you chosen the finish on the doors yet? I've used FW weatherproof varnish satin, for my sliding doors on the shed, (5mts x 2.8mtrs). 2 coats with a rolla, about 12 months ago. Just...

Hi all , a few progress shots of the doors, with the first coat of varnish, still a little more work needed on the rail, will have my ace welder back soon for an extra bracket or two. The doors run...

BOBL I envey your air con, the concrete panels and insulation offer great thermal quailities and drop the outside temp by about 6-7 degs. but I still have the aircon on my wish list. the cedar...
