Briwax in my experience won't last on a kitchen table, it will water mark and ring mark easily and need a lot of re-treatment. I've used OSMO worktop oil with good success on my own kitchen table, it is much harder wearing and water resistant etc.
Never seen an air one, but did spot this a few weeks back and thought that looks useful....

I like you hired a stihl which was great, but when I needed to do some fencing in Jan this year I bought a generic Chinese version for £150 off amazon. Bloody brilliant in my opinion for the money, put half a dozen posts in in minutes rather than hours. Came with 3 augars and an extension, I run...
Im not a spark but an electrical engineer who likes to check his own work, I bought a second-hand kewtech and have been really impressed. I've used the fluke and megger units and found this one more idiot proof for the few times I've done a full inspection. It has some nice features such as the...
Honestly...avoid the linx Windows tablets, it's terrible. I bought a 10v64 running on windows 10, as a laptop it sucks...it's slow and the inbuilt mouse touchpad is rubbish. As a tablet...well windows 10 just isn't great for tablets, it's just clunky. I'd save your money and buy a decent android...
Would highly recommend the thermal arc 200 inverter, had mine for a little over 3 months now and its awesome, punches well above its size and weight, same machine as the esab version too. I paid just over 200quid for mine.
Cheers, Tom.
Just got the above today and just been out to the garage for a quick play, my god what an awesome little machine. This compliments my SWP220 mig, R-Tech 200 DC tig nicely. Although the R-tech has an "MMA" mode, I was somewhat under-whelmed by its arc performance and couldn't really get on with...
Any pics of your bandsaw mill? Heres mine I made last year, been using her today on a cherry which had decided to no longer flower so came down the other week. still need to improve the lifting mechanism and add some guarding, but she works ok. I made it mainly to resaw a bunch of large timbers...
Noods,
Just looked at your other thread, Have you checked your torch polarity? I put my tig leads revrsed after moving house and had similar issues, swapped them back, reground the tungsten and hey-presto back to proper welds. For welding steel you want the clamp to be +ve and the tig torch to...
I think what Madkayaker meant is that you almost certainly have now provided the opportunity to overload that circuit. From looking at your picture I assume the white wire going in the bottom is the feed from the main house consumer unit? If so that looks to be about 2.5mm T&E, which is not...
Had my 6month old up and over door peeled open by some scrotes in 2011, I fitted a pair of those exact locks to the replacement door, can be unlocked from both sides which is great, and very discrete as chunko said. One thing I did do was to reinforce the inside of the door with a bar of mild...
I've rebuilt a few powerharrows in my time, nearly all the ones I've seen use a set of large gears to transfer power from the centre reduction box and out to each one of the shafts with the tines, on the 4m kevernland ones the gears where solid , about 12" in diameter, and prob weighed 20kg...
From the looks of those welds are you might be using gasless wire? If so I have the same aldi welder with gasless wire and it is extremely difficult to get a nice weld on anything thinner than 2mm. It is possible but you need to use the very short bursts (look at the mig welding tutorial on this...
I've got the same welder, mine trips my 32A MCB in the main consumer unit at anything over setting 10 I found, but not the 16A C Curve MCB in my workshop Consumer Unit.
I'm planning to change mine for a 32A C Curve, just need to get one in for the Hager CU in the house.
Tom.
Guys, I've just learnt the hard way how easy it is for theiving scum to break into your Garage/Shed/Workshop and make off with your hard earned possessions
Luckily they only got away with my 3 week old bike and helmet which was right by the door. I can only assume they were not expecting the...
