When I cut mine I one edge was the edge of the sheet of MDF so it was flat - the other I got as flat as I could when I cut it and then I sanded it on a long strip of sticky sand paper - mine is about ...

Hello Peeps, I've made myself a Neck Taper Template but I'm not particularly happy with it. I made it from an offcut of MDF so it's only 600mm long. One side is the flat edge of the board but the othe...

Got some spare (blue) stain??? Not so much, I've only enough powder to make a gallon or so of stain according to the package.

Mark’s Mirka is electrically powered - he used to use air power but he has one of the older Mirkas with an external power supply - see him sanding Roland’s guitar. My Mirka hasn’t done much work and i...

re you sure you wouldn't prefer to stain it blue? 🤣 🤣 LOLz @jonhodgson Got some spare (blue) stain???

Obvs, when it comes to re-painting it, I'm going to talk to @Boo, and try out some metallic paint colours ... @tv101 are you sure you wouldn't prefer to stain it blue?

You mentioned that you’ve heard negative reviews about the AC Mirka but @frocesterbill said that he has one and it’s sweet. What have you heard against it? @mattbeels I was fairly seriously consider...

That’s not what you said in your original response, you know, the one you’ve just deleted. 🤣 @boo Why whatever do you mean? Must be some mistake...

@tv101 Don't believe you @mattbeels. Pffft, 😆 You mentioned that you’ve heard negative reviews about the AC Mirka but @frocesterbill said that he has one and it’s sweet. What have you heard ...

Don't believe you @mattbeels.

Looks like you’re having fun with your new sander @boo but I just wanted to let you know that I’m not jealous. Nope, not at all. I couldn’t care less actually just in case you were wondering, ok? Nop...

I could of course consider a compressor for home, but knowing me I'd start off thinking I just wanted something powerful enough for an airbrush and wind up upselling myself to something that would all...

@tv101 I don't have a compressor though when the hackspace reopens I'll have access to two, we have a very large one in the metal shop and one smaller one hanging around too (I'd need to sort an airli...

To be fair I have also complained about that piece of s#!t edit button as well...

^^^ @Deej (One thing you haven't missed is the forum editor being fixed!!)

Jitsi...have I missed something. @Boo & I tried it after one of the livestreams. It's a (free) VC system, like Zoom et al. I thought it might be a useful addition to the discussions in the lives...

Jitsi...have I missed something.

Attachment : image.png So much WOW !!!

I know Ben Crowe really loves them too. Ben who??? 😉 Mark uses one too, and it IS a great tool. Trouble is, there are two options. One which is AC powered (with the motor in the hand held unit) and ...

@boo what makes the Mirka so great? I know Ben Crowe really loves them too. They're a bit pricey, but I'm a sucker for a Guchi tool.
