Thanks Fuzzie,

Was thinking of dovetails. I have a Gifkins dovetail jig I've never used that he could borrow. Might have a bit of practice on some scrap first to make sure it's a go.

Cheers

Hi Graeme,

Thank you for the tip. Certainly will look at that.

Hi all,

I have a general question about making a U shaped wall hung book shelf with keyhole plates.

The nephew plans to make this book shelf with two side walls and a bottom shelf (3 pieces)...

Hi Regdop,

Definitely interested. Tried to PM you just then but no nothing shown in Sent folder on my profile. Will try again with my contact details and phone number if we can chat tomorrow. ...

G'day Geoff,

That's very kind of you. Might contact soon when I get my plans in order however always pay. I don't feel right if I don't.

Ah Safari, nice thought but too many ties for the...

G'day Bob,

I find it bizarre that the cfm equation (for want of a better terminology) has been bandied about for years judging by results on the inter web, but not been jumped on by any...

G'day Bob,

Thank you for your reply.

The old Sarcoidosis is a bit of a mystery. I received my diagnosis around 9 years ago whilst in hospital for pneumonia. Spent six years doing regular...

Hi Samo,

I might be lucky in regard to getting riving knives. I have a brother living close by with all sorts of metal fabrication gear (cutters, folders/presses, milling machines, etc), so can...

Hi Bohdan, barramonday, Midnight Man, and Samo. Thank you for your replies. Feeling better educated now.

I coincidentally found a 30mm to 5/8 bushing in one of the boxes this afternoon (after...

Hi forum readers,

This more than likely has been asked before but I have a question about arbors, bushings, and blades.

I purchased a Carbatec TS-C250P table saw. Specs are 5/8 arbor...

Cheers Samo and Liam,

Ended up buying the 50 T-Glide with the slider (thought in the end it couldn't go astray) last Friday whilst they also had free delivery. Was advised delivery would be early...

With Carbatecs current sale, what are people's opinions on just buying the saw or stretching to the bundle. Is a spare zero clearance insert, sliding table saw assembly, and mobile base worth it? ...

Hi jerlinjames,

I too am interested in the same saw you ordered. You mentioned an ebay voucher bringing down price by 10%. How did you come about this (I'm not very educated about eBay, I have...

Hi all,

Thank you to all respondents. I was just trying to get my head around the why's, the wherefore's, and the relationships between these two items before purchasing.

As Poundy said, I...

This may or may not have been asked before but I can't seem to find an answer regardless.

Can anybody answer me as to why starter level Jointers generally are only 6 or 8 inches wide but starter...

G’day Ian, PM sent regarding Leigh M&T.

G'day barri,

Thanks for the information. Tahlee mentioned back on post #7 that blades generally were not a problem to get for 30mm but might have to get holes on the dado stack re-bored, however...

G'day Bueller, thanks for update. I wish you all the very best on your search.

Dazzler, that's a nice area you live in. Surfed that area a bit in my youth, not so much now in my mid-years. ...

G'day Bueller,

Haven't had too much experience with gumtree. Good tip setting up an account. Wife is more on the ball with it and has an account so maybe get her to set up for me. Out of...

Hi Trav,

Thanks for the advice regarding btta. Will give btta a call tomorrow to check but must admit it's one of those things where do you take a risk (if they have one) to save $496 or pay a...

G'day DomAu,

Thanks for the heads-up. So very very tempted tonight but still doing the research and the sums. $2341.23 delivered to Brisbane. Major Woodworking is $2495 before delivery...

Hi Shane,

Thank you for the additional information. That's good to know, and gives me another thing to mark down what to look for in my search.

Cheers,

Ashley

Hi Safari, Mike, Bueller, Rob,

As Safari has alluded to, I hope it's the last saw I ever buy. That's why I want to buy right the first time.

Thanks for all the feedback.

Ashley.

Hi DomAu,

Your post is very helpful in having a side by side comparison of the Harvey and the Laguna. Co-incidentally I had just been looking at the Harvey models as per Rob's post (and just...

Hi Elan,

I will definitely putting money into best I can get (and afford) and for purpose. Ripping blade, fine cut blade, etc. That's also one of the search parameters I am after is something...

Hi Mick,

Thanks for the response. I agree, that Magswitch featherboard (or similar) looks to be a purchase at the same time as the tablesaw. Safety is number one priority.

I must admit, I...

Hi Shane,

Thanks for the reply. It's good to hear from a person with first hand experience with the Hafco. I asked the local tool centre for any feedback they have but was told that was the...

Hi all,


Long time reader, first time posting. Hoping the experiences amongst the readership can point me in the right direction. I am just after some opinions/experiences regarding my first...

G'day bsrlee and malb.

Thanks for the reference to McJing and Carbatec. McJing appear to have some items that might help with my project. I have heard about using old polythene and Masonite. ...

Hi malb,

Thanks for your reply. You are definitely on the right track regarding the sled. Thinking will have to find some similar width material and glue/attach to bottom of board and that will...

Hi all,

Sorry if not posted in the right section. I'm new to the forum (and new to woodworking). As a starter, I am collecting tools as I go (mainly receiving passed-on tools), and not lashing...
