If it falls through with NZ_carver - I'll take them :)

Thanks @AlexS :)

Afternoon all

I have built some wall cabinets for my workshop out of 17mm Formply. The workshop wall is actually the external wall of the house which is old weatherboard. I plan to attach the...

Thanks both for those suggestions! Apologies for the late reply - I had missed the notifications.

I have tried the washers and they seem to work well, the chamfered sacrificial fence is a good...

Morning All

I have an old Incra v27 with a Hafco SB12 Table saw - these I bought second hand. I have always had an issue with the mitre gauge.

When I slide the gauge back past the edge of the...

OK, so I think it was a simple fix! First thing I did was to remove the locking knob and give it a clean where it nests into the roll pin, this improved it a little.

I then realised that I could...

Ok, so its been a while and I've really been enjoying using the saw! The worm gears have stayed engaged - yee haa!. There is still one small niggling issue that I believe relates to the comment below...

Super! I'll PM and get your details - thanks again!

It looks like this might still be available?

If so ... I'll take it

I'm in Newcastle so I can pick it up when it suits.

Its a kind offer!

Ill take the Tri squares and drill :)

I'm Highfields so I can swing by! Thanks!

Thanks for that, I'd be keen to see how you go with the better handle! The spindle lock is a bit tricky. I heard of some using a collet extender? I might look into that. The option is some have but a...

This is why I bought this. I didn't really want to go the whole hog on the router lift and it offered some of the functionality. I have mounted mine in a table saw extension wing. A basic insert off...

interested in how you might do this. The plastic winder does feel flimsy!

Thanks Ric for your great service :) You have helped me get going in the hobby so it will definitely be put to good use!

Of course I could return them too if they didn't sell :)

499621 Sorry about the sideways! This might help you haggle :)

If this helps anyone haggle down their local ...

I have an image of the sales tag showing $125 - but the image uploader is timing out ATM :(

PM I can send it to you.

Yeah they aren't on the website anymore. But they still had two in stock.

It seems the original markdown as $249 then last few were dropped to $125. I think it is at the stores discretion.

"I'll take it"

Two 150 mm both – were $29 now $19
Two 75 mm version – both was $23 $14

Postage to 2289 please :)

Also ..

"Ill take them ..."

Bessey Malleable Cast Iron Screw Clamp 160mm x 80mm as new was $39 for the two now $29

and if the three corner clamps for $50 don't go to Danny ... I'll grab them...

I'll take them ...

"Feather Boards These are the bees knees in feather boards. Jessem Paralighn Feather Boards in as new condition and only used a few times. $50 for both of them."

Oh wait ......

Hi All,

Short story ... the AEG MF1400KE is on runout at Bunnings, from $399 down to $149 (at my local bunnings)

Why did I get this router?

Recently I have been endeavouring to get an older...

Some really helpful info thanks all.

Considering a 10" blade instead of 12"

I have been considering going the 10" route to save some $$$ and therefore maybe get more blades! I will keep this in...

Hmmm ... I suppose I thought they were the same ... The blade I have says its a 5/8 and measuring the arbour I get a 15.8mm reading. Could it be that Hafco changed from 5/8 to 16mm at some point?

Yeah right! I tried :)

Thanks for your answer, I have often been tempted and just wanted to make sure I could infact get enough depth :) I was assuming yes ... based on basic maths, but real world...

Thanks Riverbuilder :) I do understand this from my reading - particularly given the range of timbers used, projects being made, ways of working and preferences! This is what I love about my newish...

I have noticed that with my fence too, and likewise I need to measure each time :( I’m guessing there is no hack to fix it …

I think I used the word rip incorrectly, I suppose every cut on plywood is both ripping and cross cutting!

Out of interest ... can you use an 8" dado set in a 12" table saw?

Thanks Biggus :)

Hmmm maybe part of the "burning" is that I am pushing long lengths of Plywood through without proper technique as opposed to normal ripping. I assumed the 100t was good for all...

Evening all,

I am about to get a new general purpose blade for my Hafco SB12 table saw.

I currently have a 36t that came with it and I’m looking for some improved quality in the cuts. I’d have...

Thanks! So the image you show looks like you would mount it on the wall or ceiling then run some ducting, is that about right?

There is this one at Bunnings that sits on the floor. I suppose the...

Wondering if you have any links to products or recommendations that you think might hit the brief?

Thanks all for your feedback. It has helped.

My current plan is now looking like this.

1. I will route a short 1m run of ducting to near the back door at floor level. I often use the Table saw...

I bought my track and hardware from Timbecon and so far happy with it, but I'm only just beginning :)

HI All,

I am a beginner on my Dust extraction Journey. My first post has guided me to the point where I now have a 2HP collector and a plan to house it out the back of my workshop. Here is the...

Here we go :)

So far so good! You can see the remnants of the old dog kennel on the underside!

This first shows the general construction - its pretty much like every other sled! It's based off...

Here are some images of the finished sled. So far so good! You can see the remnants of the old dog kennel on the underside!

Yeah I will! It is based off the "Fix This Build That" table saw sled ... How To Make A Table Saw Sled (FREE Plans) | FixThisBuildThat

I don't know what I have been doing all these years without...

OK so, I picked up one of the 2HP Carbatec and set it up today. Its not "plumbed" in yet so I just had the flexible hose running outside, but wow ... what a difference! It was only plugged into the...

Good question! it was 12mm C/D plywood I bought at Bunnings!!! I was there buying something else and and noticed that the C/D ply had what looked like a B or maybe even A grade finish! I grabbed two...

Yeah it is a bit bigger than many ... However i wanted to be able to cross cut pieces that are 600mm deep. It does mean I now have this big ting to lug around the workshop!

Oh yes! I cut an older piece of 12mm plywood that had not bent over 5 years ... sure enough it bent within hours of cutting and sanding. I was about to buy MDF then realised that the weight of the...

Thanks! I have done so much reading over the last couple of days and missed that bit! I think it is pushing my price out to far ... but then ... health!

Here is my immediate plan to keep woodworking and get rid of the dust.

I will eventually be building a storage unit off the back of the workshop to house the DC. But I don't want this to stop me...

Thanks :)

OK thank you both!

It looks like some good course correction there. I will forgo the 1hp and get a 2hp. Maybe I should look out for one second hand.

Adding the bathroom extraction fans sounds...

Here is what I have learnt over the last few days as I go about remedying the dust issue in my workshop.


Background

I have a small workshop 3m x 5 m. It has two doors, one at either end. I...

Got it ...
