Hey Morry,

Would you consider making me one for a price? If so what would you charge me to make one?

Cheers,
Daz

I have it from 2 sources - 1. My martial arts master and 2 from some chinese history i have at home. Anyway i am happy to be wrong. Basically i like both most asian furniture and architecture and...

Scott,

The Swords are generally thought to be Japanese, however they have origins in China. I do chinese martial arts and these weapons are the real thing - not copies. :D

G'day all,

Ok here is what I would like to know.

The model i have does tilt 45. I picked it up about 6 weeks ago.

silentC,

I have the biscuit attachement from Timbecon and it works very well for biscuit. You need to calibrate it well the first time and then there is no worries. I have even used it to cut...

G'day all,

G'day Toddy,

I have 2.5 batts in my roof and whilst they work very well i would have prefered to install anticon (if i could have affored it at the time) This is commonly used in industrial,...

G'day all,

I have some timber Lamps that has a very thin coat of clear estapol (i think it would have been sprayed) and i would like to remove it so that i can stain the timber and then re-coat...

Hi Tony,

I have the same Table and I have the extension options (Wings) and Router Option.

From memory the wings cost about $40 for the pair... and you can get them direct from your local...

G'day Sprog,

yep have tried them and emailed them asking where i can buy from and price - no answer yet :confused:

G'day people,

Anyone know where i can get Pocket Door Sets? I am in Perth and would prefer a local supplier or at least in Australia... If you have an idea of pricing this would also be handy :D

Sprog,

Thanks - this is the direction i am going now - do you know of anywhere local that i can purchase these sets?

G'day guy's,

Thanks for the information - I have been re thinking it...

G'day all,

I am presently in the planning stages of building an entertainment cabnet to house my DVD/VCR/Home Theatre amp etc. I just thought it would be great to incorporate a roll-top door to...

Marcus,

I don't own one, but the standard kit ($419) does not included a proper rip fence - this is an additional $149 and i recormend you get it if you go for one of these. The fence is pretty...

Well Guy's I have to say i am guilty of buying tools too - but i am very hard on myself about - when i go to the local Bunnings or Timbecon or Carba Tec i ask myself a few simple questions

1. Do i...

Well the chisel in the joint worked a treat!



Well you can tell her you was right this time :D

G'day,

I have some bad news - the new fence is not able to be fitted to the Ryobi. Simply there is nowhere on the front to mount it and the table is not wide enough for the back of the fence rail...

G'day Wayne,

I just returned from Timbecon and had a look at their saws and have grabed a 3rd party rip fence. I had a good look at it and it is 100% better than the one on the Ryobi. So I am...

Well the GMC TS I looked at last week has a lock down Fence and box aluminium, however before I pay for it I will be giving it a real good inspection now I know what to look for!

Other than that I...

G'day All,

A week ago I purchased a Ryobi Table Saw from my local Bunnings store and after putting it all together found that the Rip Fence is of a very poor design. After speaking to Ryobi...

The joint in question is just 2 pieces of timber butted together.

So you just pour hot water on the joint and pull it apart?

G'day,

I have had a mishap with the use of some Aquadhere PVA glue and need to dissolve a the glue in a joint - is there a painless way of doing this so I can separate the timber?

G'day All,

Here is something very annoying - I went to the local Bunning's to get prices on both Ryobi and GMC Thicknessers and what I found was that there is over $100 difference in price between...

G'day All,

Well I have read with interest the threads about Cheap Brad Nailers and was set to get one of the Super Cheap Auto products, however they are no longer available in WA so I went looking...

G'day all,

Just in case you have been thinking about a cheap pneumatic Nail Gun or Finishing Stapler. The kits comes with 200 Brads and 100 Finish Staples (18g) Oil, Protective Glasses and a...

G'day,

I have stained Bamboo here at my place - I used a product called Timber Glow (It can be tinted in a range of colours) Other than that you can use Tinted Vanish - that works a treat too..
...

Well I have been informed now that because Supercheap Auto have a automotive trading licence that that are not able to sell nail guns etc... so the el cheapo nail gun kit will not be available...

G'day All,

I contacted Lee Valley about availability in Australia and here is the response... enjoy!

Thank you for your e-mail. The following is a list of distributors of Veritas® products in...

G'day all,

I have been reading...

Andrew thanks for the heads up. I just checked the Ryobi website and the Thinknesser is current - maybe the bunnie got it wrong or prefered to sell the GMC, however the warranty is an important...

Gumby,

Thankyou for the information and the offer... I will be calling some of the other stores to see if they may have the kit - but if i can't find one i may take you up on that offer.

Hi All,

I have been considering puchasing a Ryobi Thicknesser - does anyone own one? Feedback on how it performs - pro's and con's

G'day,

Well i have recently purchased a Ryobi table and the general response about the rip fence is right - it is crap! i have been playing around with it a bit to see how to maybe retrofit it to...

Hi Gumby,

I went to a Super Cheap Auto store here in WA yesterday looking for the kits and was told they didn't have any - some problem with trading 7 days here in WA and having to send all stocks...
