Hi gents, after some more advice before I order the timber.

The timber I would like to order is 50x100mm and I'm trying to decide between a 50mm or 100mm thick top.
...

Thanks for the advice guys.

I think I will order the timber and just have a crack with the handplanes. I'm sure I'll know within a few days if its going to take a few weeks or a few years and in...

Hi guys,


The Mrs wants a big dining table and she has noticed my growing collection of hand tools and determined that I will be making the table.


This is a way larger project...

Very nice mate, I'm sure he will be very happy with the result as you should be.

I have told him to get stuffed. Hence the council now being involved.

Out backyard and house will have near all day sun baking it with both of these trees gone which I'd rather not have

Excuse my ignorance but what's a pipe?

If I had room I'd love to keep a whole lot of it. If I can get my workbench timber out if it I'd be happy.

Hope so!

I'm in chatswood (sydney). Nice and central.

Still waiting on the council though as per my first post so just getting an idea if its worth looking at still.

I put the bin there for scale.

I kinda want a nice 1800x600x100 slab for a workbench top ;) ill take some snaps of the trees tomorrow. I measured around the trunk of the smaller (bluegum) tree earlier today and it was 2500 around.

Thanks for the info guys. I didn't even think about access :)

The only access to the backyard is via a side gate that's 900mm wide so I'm guessing it'd be more trouble than its worth.

Hi Guys,
I've just had council come around and take a look at 2 large trees in my back yard as a neighbor has complained about them dropping large branches in his yard. I'm told we will...

Not sure how wide the stuff in your photo is but I've used similar stuff to restore an old chair. It was used to hold the springs in place.

Hi All,
Strange title for the handtool section I know but just wanted some advice on the most useful and versatile piece of machinery for a primarily handtool shop.

I believe the bandsaw...

Thanks mate. I'll have a look on eBay for some of these.

Anyone?

I'd suggest reading the part number off one of the memory sticks and posting it back here as we'll as the motherboard model or at least a photo of it and then I can suggest replacement memory that...

Dads a sparky and one of his customers have him a chest full of gear that was used by his father who would be about 110 this year.

Unfortunately all of the planes got raided about 20 years ago :(

Still got to have a better dig through the shed but here's what looks good to me so far.

Thanks again for the advice all and merry Xmas.

Awesome. Theres 2 larger saws. I think one is the same brand and the other is another. The larger of the two has a finger hole in the handle.

All the chisels have the same blue marking.

I'll...

Hi Guys, dad have me a box full of old stuff from the back of his shed.

Any of it worth trying to restore?

There's a few similar saws and 8 or so of the same brand chisels

Hi Guys,
Looking to make a workbench over the next month or so and looking for a good plan to start from.

I've just started reading through Chris Schwarz's Workbenches book so I'm...

Hi Guys,
I'm in the process of fitting out my man cave with quality hand tools and i think the next thing I want/need is a hand mitre saw/box.
