Are there errors

I’d not noticed

Doug

Yep see a lot of these on Instagram & always wonder how quick the rot will set in at the ends of the bottom of the diagonal braces

Doug

I’ve just searched you Rog & it bought up your posts admittedly there were lines & lines of script(?) starting phpBB debug that I have to scroll past before I get the results but I get that when I click new posts

Doug

Have you nothing better to do than slag off this company on as many internet outlets as you can find? You don’t even know a wedged mortise tenon is considered the best joint you can use on a traditionally made door.

Doug

Have you thought of cedar shingles for the roof, I'm sure if you search YouTube there will be a video showing the installation.

Doug

Part 61 is the main girder which is part of the main body surely you didn’t remove this as I don’t see how they could operate the motor without it to test it ?

Doug

Have you taken the machine to bits Rog as a quick google suggests the main girder is part of the main unit which would required quite some disassembly to remove.

Doug

Perhaps it’s a known fault that is caused by a deformed girder, so they know to get the machine running correctly it will need replacing

Doug

I had both but sold the 3mm as I only really used the 5mm

Doug

Good to hear you’ve got it sorted Irma

Doug

My own Bosch jig takes a 14mm wide cutter, that said the height of the cutter makes a big difference in the fit of the joint, might be worth experimenting with a few different height settings if you haven’t already.

Doug

If it’s the one I’m thinking of it was a generic jig found under a few brand names, take a look at this link & see if the image is the same as yours.

Doug, what are you smoking ? :lol: Nothing more hazardous than kippers Rog. :D It looked identical to Jacobs Mini Max, the seller is in Chesterfield which is pretty close to him but he didn't have a green floor the last time I was using his machine :? Nice piece of kit BTW though the appature for t...

Don't know if this might be of any interest if the felder fell through. I have a MiniMax panel saw and you can tell it is built for professional use. The sliding table is a real gem. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Minimax-LAB-300N-Table-Saw-Spindle-Moulder-Planer-Thicknesser-With-Tersa-Block-/2529156326...

Hi Furnace,
I can't answer your question but Jack who started this thread regularly posts on Instagram, he goes under the name of jackenglishmachines & is a font of Wadkin knowledge

Doug

Depends on the height of your doors & worktop & what you want your finished worktop height.

900mm is a fairly regular worktop height, if your door is say 720mm high plant-on & your worktop 40mm then your kickboard will be around 140mm.
It's easier to work back from known measurements.

The main thing with Accoya is its dimensional stability, make a door, fit it & never have go back to ease it because the painter made a shite job. Yes you have to jump through a few hoops when using it but nothing major & it's easy enough to offer two prices, one for redwood one for Accoya & let the...

You might get away with something like a fakro loft ladder, scroll down this page http://www.fakro.co.uk/loft_ladders/ as the lid is fixed to the ladder it doesn't go down to 90 degrees so should miss the light fitting, thought you might want to temporarily remove the light fitting when installing t...

Doug

Looks like softwood, split it down the middle & see what it looks like though I'm guessing Steve may well be right

Doug

I buy quite a lot of green native timber & as Steve has mentioned the trick is how you store it, it's quite easy to end up with expensive fire wood. If you're going down this route & don't have much knowledge I'd recommend buying a book on the subject. Also regarding the year per inch rule, that usu...

Blimey Mel that disappeared a couple of years ago

Do you want bank transfer?

Doug

Couldn't you rig up a transformer?

Doug

I used Dacralate two part epoxy when I did mine & 12 years later it still looks good & wasn't overly expensive, the workshop before the present one I did in ordinary floor paint & it needed re-painting 5 years later, hence going for the two part on the present shop.

Doug

Dunno how handy Axminster are for you Karl, but I noticed Screwfix are now selling some Festool gear, they have the sander you linked to for just a few pence more.

Doug

Had a look at the Deros with Jonny at W16 he was saying his Ceros had packed up, I'm glad I went with the ETS, it's had lots of abuse over the years & still going fine

Doug

The base on the saw un-bolts so you should get it in your car, I used one on a chapel conversion & it was a good no frills machine which I moved round on my own so I'd have thought two of you should manage to lift one. HTH

Doug

Good to see you Mark, Lynx & a couple of other familiar faces.
I found two Issac Lord stands but couldn't see you Paul, soz
The show was good, the A42 being closed was annoying but the curry was the icing on the cake

Doug

Hopefully find you Paul

Doug

By the time you've bought all the wood you could have probably have bought a flat pack & saved a lot of hassle, Tanglewood Cedar make some nice outdoor buildings https://www.facebook.com/www.tanglewoodcedar.co.uk/

Doug

Crisp.

Doug

Looks the business Mark

Doug

Depends on your budget, pricing against UPVC is always a looser, I've just bought 2 Windows & a door complete with glass in UPVC for not a lot more than the price of the glass on its own
