You can tailor statistics and tests to create any result you desire. Why only three pocket hole screws but five dowels? My experience with pocket holes joinery properly created using a good jig is...

Well I did it!
I am now (as of last Thursday 02/08/2012) the proud owner of a Leigh FMT Pro and have a much lighter wallet. Decided to bite the bullet and get the best I could almost afford. I have...

Hi Rob, Wolffie,
Thanks again for your input. I will definitely go for the Prp FMT if the dollars hold out. Looked at the Domino but to me it is just like a biscuit joiner but very flash and very...

Thanks SB, Rob &Wolffie, I really appreciate your responses. Unfortunately Wolffie, the D4 set doesn't have any of the spiral up cut bits for either of the FMT's.
I have just checked my bank account...

I am seriously considering spending some of my tax return money on a Leigh FMT or Super FMT jig. Can anyone share their experiences with either one? I have had a peep at the display ones at Carbatec...

Hi Grahame,
I reckon the 90" (roughly 8 feet) rails are well worth the extra cost. In the years since I bought mine from you (in the early days) they have been absolutely invaluable. With my Jet...

Try Stan Ceglinski at Billinudgel Woodworking - 02 6680 4456. Only a few miles into NSW and a really helpful bloke. He salvages and mills it and knows timber too. He's the best person I've ever...

Sorry but I searched and could find nothing on this.
I have read in a recent Fine Woodworking mag a recipe for an oil based finish that includes a portion of Japan drier. I've done google and...

I thought this was a woodwork forum - when did it change to a political forum? The only Bush on here should be able to be used for woodwork - and the only Howard should be a brand name for finishing...

I watched the first episode. Then i switched on the telly while having a lunch break from re-organising the shed benches etc. Started watching a show called Do it! or somesuch - and guess who was the...

Ah - the magic of TV. If only I had someone to hold the camera, I could do a Norm too. I could edit out my mistakes, not show me vacuuming, take 15 days and make it look like one, etc, etc, etc....

Just got another email from How to - says sorry a typo - really starting on 26th September!! So it's only a day or two.

For those who don't enjoy it - easy - watch something else. We can all be...

Posted this in announcements but thought I should put it here as well.

It's Great news for those of us who have been suffering a lack of good woodworking programmes on pay TV. The New Yankee...

It's Great news for those of us who have been suffering a lack of good woodworking programmes on pay TV. The New Yankee Workshop is coming to How To Channelat 8.30pm on Wednesday 23rd September....

I agree with stu - Get the Jet. They're reliable, accurate and trouble free if mine are anything to go by. I have all Jet equipment and I haven't had a problem with any of it. I bought one of the...

My two bobs worth? I reckon the best I've ever tried are Whiteside. They seem a bit (forgive the pun) exy but when you get them in your hand and then in the Triton - they are magnificent. Just seem...

Hiya Toni - members of this forum often hear from me when another asks for an opinion about a Jet product. I have the JWBS14CS which is the less solubrious cousin to the one you're looking at. It has...

I have Incra TS-LS on my Jet Supersaw. Wouldn't be without it, even though I had to sacrifice my sliding Table for the setup I wanted. I'd rather be without my sliding table than my TS-LS.

cheers.

I have to totally agree with Gwhat - and not for the first time. Why - because I have the big Triton in my table (along with Grahames Incra TSLS & Wonderfence of course) and the TR12 for other work....

I have both the big Triton and the Unilift along with an Incra TS-LS and Wonderfence. The Triton works perfectly as a thru top change. I do have to poke the hand through the door on my Router table...

While I agree that many members would go with the Carbatec Table saw, many others would probably suggest you look at Jet products before you make up your mind. The Jet SuperSaw is worth a look as are...

I second Wongo's comments. I have a SuperSaw and I love it too. Never had any problem at all from day one. Sorry - I do have one problem - finding enough time to use it as much as i'd like.
...

I have a TS-LS set up with a Triton 3.25 hp router in a unilift and a Jet Supersaw. I purchased Incra's 96inch rails and have mounted the Router to the right of the table saw in its own cabinet which...

I have one on my TSLS setup and I think its like the rest of the Incra stuff I have bought through Grahame - the ducks guts! (In Great Britain that translates as "Top stuff old chap! and in the...

Try this web address. There's a heap of info on this site - you can also search under Termites for a heap more. I've just finished producing a DVD on termite management for BSA here in Qld and I...

I use Lanoguard but I really work it into the surface like you would a good wax.
It doesnt leave any residue and I have not had any rust. No - I lie - I dropped a bit of sweat on my tablesaw top one...

Beware!
AV Sytec - now Bostik, are now only selling UF in 5 litre packs. I recently bought a 1 litre pack having read their very own tech sheet which said in our climate (Brisbane) it had a shelf...

I just read my post again - I don't mean 1000 packs - I mean packs of 1000 nails. I might be crazy but not quite that crazy.

Cheers,

Graeme c.

Thanks to all for your responses. I have had some success over the last 24 hours with a request to a UK company who gave me their distributor in Oz.
They have since responded from both Perth and...

I go to catch up on all the new goodies, see demos, lust after impossible purchases, to see in the flesh, no metal, the tools and machinery that I have budgeted money for and to generally soak up the...

Does anyone know where I can buy high dome brass or copper head upholstery nails in Oz. I know I can get them from UK but would rather give my hard earned to an Oz retailer. I just cannot find any....

I can only agree with the Incra bloke about being attracted to both. If they can find an answer I think there will be many who will be overjoyed - me included. I think my Incra TSLS system is the...

Hear, Hear, Hear, Hear.........

This link might suit - I don't think these are horse hair but I'm not sure. A quick email could set you right. http://www.woodcarver.com.au/index1.htm

Grahame, Buzzer,

I have been playing with this for around two years now on and off. The Jet Slider mounts on two cut out sections of the Jet rails on the left of the saw as you face it. To mount...

Aaaahh! Look at that! I can still (just) remember when my Jet slider looked as pristine as that. Great choice. You'll love it and its work. Congrats and welcome to Jet travel.

Me too! Me too! Now I've got the whole TS-LS setup and Triton with Unilift in place and finally totally level and square I cannot wait to see the new DVD...and start really using the TS-LS as it...

I'm a Jet fan. Or should that be a Fanjet. Whatever! I have the sliding table Supersaw and the euro version. Yes I often think the dado ability of the USA version would be nice but I have set up an...

Jet! I might be sounding monotonous but I cannot fault the quality of any of my Jet gear - and I've got a fair bit. My lathe is the 14-42 and it is brilliant. Quiet, solid, doesn't move about. I...

I agree with all above - great service, great communication - but when will Grahame learn to spell his name correctly?:)

I'll be in if its a session in Toowoomba - Sunshine Coast or Brisbane OK too. Any thoughts of asking people like the Tormek distributors, HeliGrind guys, Carbatec, Gregory's, Northwoods etc to...

Incra's demonstration stuff is always excellent from the explanation/demonstration point of view. What excites me is that the DVD quality and new technologies in video production should make the...

For those of us that have been chasing an LS DVD and DVD versions of the current video productions for nearly two years, that is great news. However I doubt we could now be called "recent purchasers'...

Was that the Soccer World Cup?

Bugger!, I thought I was watching the Italian Academy Awards.

Gimme a decent Wallaby Walloping anytime!

I'm not sure about your Exacta Fence as most of the new Jets have the Commercial Exacta. I have a Jet Supersaw myself but if you want to check out your saw - find the model number and then visit this...

You'l get there faster, enjoy it more and have a quality flight . I agree with biting Midge. I've got the Jet Supersaw and that's what I think - Super saw! Accurate, great finish, quality and power....

I'm probably too late but you should really get hold of the AS3740 document - even if it is only to make sure you do the right job for your style of walls and floor. There's a lot more required than...

Hey Memoryman, I work for the BSA in Queensland and have seen some bodgy work up here too. I'm sorry to hear about your problem. I would suggest you get in touch with the Building Authority in NSW...

No-one seems to have mentioned a dust collector yet. I know you're working in a pretty open area, but I use a dust collector to suck fine dust and fumes away from the lathe and a triton respirator as...

I have the Jet Supersaw with the sliding table. I have nothing but admiration for it in both quality and ability. Nothing I have thrown at it in two years has been a problem or slowed it down. I have...
