Thanks @rocknroller912 and @tv101 I’ll consider those option. 👍

@boo Just had another thought, could you ask local shops if they are throwing any packaging out. I'm sure loads get chucked every week.

@boo Could you use something like a large vacuum bag in reverse, blow it up with air with lots of wrapping inside. Medics use things like that as splints so it might work if you find one big enough. A...

Or the large store-it-yourself warehouse places?

Cycle shops have large boxes.

I’m fuming! 😡🤬 A packaging company have let me down, I ordered from them on the 28th November. I contacted them earlier this week to see what was going on and they said it would be del...

Good one

@robin best not attempt to use the hoover in future!

I have one from 3M, works great and fits perfectly. I use it for all sorts of jobs (sanding, painting,...) Louis

I have two - both from Screwfix - one for dust and one for solvents - both have replaceable filters - the dust one was £25 and the solvent one £35.

Hey guys, can someone recommend me a high quality respirator, ideally one that has passed safety standards? The ones on amazon are shocking and offer no protection whatsoever so I’m looking to avoid t...

Could I ask the community for some help please? When I see other peoples’ Bandsman builds, they always look bigger than mine. 🤣 Have I got my measurements wrong or am I being stupid? Have I g...
