I knew darren would come up with a fine design! How easy is it to get a couple of clamps onto it to fix it to the bench?

The air flow on bandsaw extraction generally happens below the table and they are so far from being sealed systems @darrenking I used some self adhesive P profile door seal around my band saw so it n...

Like that @rocknroller912 - thanks.

@tej My wood lathe isn’t much above hobby level but I’ve made some good stuff on it. My metal lathe is Axminster C1 just the correct size for what I need and can be used for small jobs without lubrica...

My only concern is that this is quite a big cutter to be using in what is essentially a hand routing jig Good point. I should have said that I usually aim to take off *fractions* of a mm in each pas...

I’ve had sorts of odd people drop in!! You mean you had *other* visitors too???

Hmmmmmm - I'll put that in the interesting/odd category @Marcel. Not one I'll be rushing out to buy ... I understand. It must be like me listening to a song in Welsh.

Oh I got the buffing mops on Friday by the way (I sent you a text) Hi Boo, no problem and I meant to respond. It’s just been a busy weekend, I’ve had sorts of odd people drop in!!😂😂&#...

The only downside with making it taller That said, it is easier to add a riser layer to the bed of the jig to bring thin material closer to the cutter than it is to raise the height of the rails.

🚫⚠️DO NOT USE SILICONE⚠️🚫 I have a spray finisher and powder coated in the unit next to me and they have problems if the car repair company, 50m away, is h...

but wouldn’t constant use interfere with dust extraction? Hi Matt, I doubt it. The air flow on bandsaw extraction generally happens below the table and they are so far from being sealed systems, if a...

you could also try just sticking a sheet of 0.8mm thick high pressure laminate (eg Formica) down onto them with NEC tape This also gives you a zero clearance insert so that’s cool but wouldn’t const...

engineering lathe @rocknroller912 jealous of that one, I’ve a tiny hobby size wood lathe, engineering lathes seem prohibitively expensive for one that’s worth having. Arguably I’ve actually no sensib...

My existing set-up uses a 50mm rail height. The only downside with making it taller is that, if you also need to flatten something thinner, then your router bit might not be long enough to reach A v...

So should I go for a compromise of 55mm as standard to accommodate neck blanks?

that cutter is 52mm This is a great cutter and I love Wealden products, and I think they offer the best value for money of any UK brand. My only concern is that this is quite a big cutter to be using...

You already know what I think @darrenking! It's another beautifully made piece of kit from the Bagpress workshop. My existing set-up uses a 50mm rail height. The only downside with making it taller i...

there is nothing to stop a narrow blank being held diagonally I had thought of that after commenting @darrenking but wasn’t sure if it was a whack idea or not. So I guess it isn’t! 😆
