Don't suppose you have a spiral flush trim bit which you would be willing to sell separately?

I am going to use the Intergrain Ultraprep Mould Killer I have purchased. (Maybe a wash with Concrobium mould kill as well).
I am just trying to find out what to seal with after I have cleaned it.

No collective wisdom about this?

We have an outdoor table made from teak which was originally clay brush finished. The finish wore off a long time ago and being an outdoor (but under cover) table it suffered from spots of mould. A...

I am chasing a decent quality desktop oscillating spindle sander which includes a spindle with a 1/4" diameter eg the Carbatec SPS-375P (which is out of stock until Dec this year apparently :()

Thanks, I'll have to see if the markings on mine still exist :)

Can I ask if you replaced the belts and if so what were the specs/part numbers? Thanks!

I'll take the bandsaw, thanks.

Interested in the band saw. PM sent.

Thanks all for the contributions.

It tells me that there are many different methods - so most choices will work, unfortunately it has opened up a lot more options for me to consider (arggh).

I probably should have mentioned that he gave it a go on my bench grinder and had some inconsistent results. Not that surprising though as it was his first go. Although I had a fine grit wheel it...

Some great ideas - I like the idea of 2 pieces sandwiched together - saves a cut and some clean up if it works.

I have tried a few ways of putting a strip on the bottom but it is requiring some...

Completely routed channels might work. I think I would have to use just a strip at the bottom to reduce complexity rather than try to incorporate the stand into the second piece or maybe even...

This project is partly to fulfil a need and partly a learning experience.

What process did you use to manufacture them? Similar to the suggested way above?

I am looking to produce some essential oil holders for presents as these are very popular in my wife's social circle.

The 120 I used was also very worn so the difference to 320 was not huge.
The belt sander set up looks good - something I might try before justifying something bigger!

Vacuum would be great but most of the sides have a small surface area as the piece is quite long - see attached pic. This is a 3 hole but they go up to 6. Sanding each end and the one opposite the...

Some great ideas!

In reply:
Yes it is finishing only and not removal. I am using 120 grit followed by 320 and that seems to give a nice finish with only 2 steps.

Never thought of securing the...

I am finishing some smaller pieces of various timbers (pine, oak and camphor) and I am struggling with the sanding routine for each. They are about the size of a glasses case with one live edge and...

Thank you everyone for the replies - I had picked up the dust extractor very cheaply ($99 new) originally and was looking at any improvements which would be compatible with a larger machine once I...

Great detective work - Sherwood also make a similar machine - the FM-200 but it is not listed as being compatible on the Timbecon website (only the FM-300 and FM-400). I have emailed them to ask.

I was wondering if anyone had successfully converted one of the trolley type dust extractors to use a filter cartridge?

Thanks for all the advice.

I have been gifted a table saw (Carbatec TSC-10HB) which has seen better days - it is not in terrible condition but the table has some mild-moderate rust and it has been sitting in storage for a...

I'm in.

Purchased from? With that shipping, even with a step down converter it should be cheaper than 2 separate machines.

Good spot on the 240v triton and the differences. Was the Rigid a recent purchase? Was shipping expensive?

There are plenty of products available which might be the US version for people willing to use a step down converter or use it for other reasons (parts). Technically the specs do say 3.5A / 450W...

Yes with $130 shipping they are just sending it direct from USA (It is shipped and sold by Bankostore (USA) not Amazon), it will be the the 110V version unfortunately.

I had been looking for one of these as well as they looked like versatile machines at a decent price. I suspect the reason we don't have them here is all the version are 110V and they never produced...

I think I am going to use some connectors instead. Found a place in WA that had some steel core ones at a reasonable price. Hopefully it will be sturdy enough.

This had definitely crossed my mind, current lack of shed space means I wouldn't easily be able to hide a set up from the missus however. (All the hiding spots are filled with other tools)


...

I have been investigating this as well - I was a bit concerned about the rigidity of the whole set up though. I might come to this though just to achieve the outcome if welding is not an option.

OK - looks like I should stick to painted or black steel to start with. I can get access to pre cut lengths so no cutting would be required ( the middle legs can run down the outside of the box to...
