The first time my jammed I did also. The second time it jumped the flats on the shaft so badly and not knowing this meant breaking it get it free. I would advise now turning the shaft with a large...

I must have purchased it in the last during the last 12 months. It cost about $300 and I have managed some work with it. If I claim which is possible then I will have to I expect convince the dealer...

I have one of these Sheppach HF50 which I have decided to not use again. Most difficult to put together since the pictures in the manual are unclean and no instruction which screw goes where. The...

Yes I know about the 1967 fires another is overdue. I am in Canberra what happened here was a forty year build up of fuel and finally in particularly dry times lightening! After that it went on to...

I am sorry for your plight concerning timber supplies. A recent book "The Greens" outlined the aim of the Greens regarding forestry.
1. End all logging in public and private native forest except for...

Thanks for that.

Thanks for that, it sounds like you have used routers quite a bit. The next job have to do is route the draw faces. They are to have round edges (about 10 mm radius) and a groove in from the edge 50...

I thought about trimming them with router. Wouldn't that be tricky and dangerous? I bought 40 metres of Tasmanian Oak cut to size for $150 from Monaro Timbers in Queanbeyan.

Thanks all. I think I will go with buying the strip. Originally I bought timber to produce my own. Closest I could buy was 19mm so then how to reduce that to 16 and then cut the strip of it. Best...

This not at all what I want. I don't want iron glue veneer want a wood strip probably 4 X 16 mm. Seems I can get it from Monaro Timbers at Fyshwick at $150 for 30 metres so I will give that a try.

By hardware you mean a store like Bunnings? I need 16mm.

I have decided rather than use the plastic tape for edging melamine board I would rather use wood strip. I think it will look better and be more robust. Problem is eventually I will need a fair bit...

Claw Hamma thanks and it is good to know it will settle down after a 100 years. My slotted steel has slots of 30mm so will allow +- 15mm. I suppose if this does not work it always can be converted...

Thanks guys for your advice. I take that it will move and I need to make sure this is allowed for. So hold it flat but allow it to move across the grain. I will let let you know how it goes but it...

Thanks Phully and GumRed.

The red gum slab will be 45mm thick and 12% mc also it will be finished with polyurethane. The saw slots worry me and I glad of your advice. They were advised by the...

Thanks Kevin.

If I cut as suggested that leaves about 12mm of wood to hold it together. I think the cuts will achieve a required weakening of the slab so that it will be more easily be held flat....

I have started a kitchen renovation which will have kiln dried red gum slabs for the bench tops. They will be 4.5 and 3.5 metres long. The width is 650mm and the thickness 45mm. I have been...
