@rocknroller912 I'm lucky at the moment because the London Hackspace is quite close to me (less than 25 minutes if there is no traffic), but its future in the current location is somewhat in doubt (th...

@johhodgson Thanks for the video. Wish I still lived in London, my town doesn’t have any shared facilities and local joiners hardly do wood work any more due to upvc doors and windows. It’s all house ...

a motor just for the belt You get them down to about 350w so this would be pretty useful to drive the belt, better over powered than under. I have seen these motors listed at up to 1500w ie about 2hp...

I could certainly machine the plywood parts but I don't think I'd want to get involved in the assembly side of things I don't think anyone who isn't capable of putting one of these together from a se...

Industrial sewing machine motors are the future for home build machines. 1hp servo motor, controller and 'throttle' lever come in at around the £100 mark on ebay, with lower power version even less. P...

Do you recon you could make these @darrenking? I could certainly machine the plywood parts but I don't think I'd want to get involved in the assembly side of things. Manufacturing finished powered m...

I am planning on building a drum sander for my local hackspace @jonhodgson I’ll be interested to see how you get on with this. Do you recon you could make these @darrenking?

@rocknroller912 asked me to provide some info on this design in the live feed chat. I am planning on building a drum sander for my local hackspace (no point in doing it for myself as I have nowhere to...

oh and @russ great Dylan song Cheers @deej. 😁👍 🙏🎸🙂🎶

Hey Deej - its OK - not my guitar! (i'll take it as a compliment)

1 hit, and 2 sympathy buys 😉 @tv101 Yeah I hear you. I‘m not a big Boston fan but that first album was YUGE when I was a kid so it’s ingrained in me and for the most part I really like it. Th...

I’m a Group Head of Treasury for a large housing group. That sounds like a real, proper, grown-up, JOB @deej. Well done for getting there. Now make sure you do something fun.

This is The Best Song by Bob Dylan that I've heard........ 🙏🎸🙂🎶

@tv101 Yeah I understand completely, online disinhibition is real alright and it does cause endless trouble. In this forum, I think we have grasped the fundamentals of each of our personalities and I ...

@Boo Background to my comment. For 5 years, I was the (originally) 25% owner, then (ultimately) 50% owner of the UK's largest guitar-related online forum. We built it from scratch (literally nothing)...

@tv101 and everyone, don’t ever stop larking about and having the crack (again, this means having a laugh), it’s what binds us all together. The world needs laughter, especially in times like these. &...

I was aiming for humour, not rudeness. Perhaps it's time for me to stop making non-guitar-related comments. It's too easy to misconstrue meaning in on-line comms when you get into "other" topics. @t...

Lancashire in the UK is like South Carolina in the US. You know it’s there because you can see it on a map. Sometimes you have to go through it to get somewhere you’d want to be. But if you stop e...
