You know Geoff, that’s just what I was concerned about, the jack of all trades thing. That’s why I was hoping to hear fro someone who has been using it, before taking the plunge.

Has anyone any experience of one of these. Looks very useful. **LINK**

I reckon you could build more models than you could shake a stick at, and they will still be going strong.

The spare abrasive strip has arrived. First of all, unexpectedly it is flexible. It also has a self adhesive backing, so should not present any fitting problems. Not done it as yet. Think I will try to bend the old one, once removed, around a curved piece of wood, thus making a fairly large diameter sanding tool.

Let you know when I know, Bob.

Many people on here, and elsewhere, extol Permagrit tools. Not without reason. I had a problem with the abrasive plate lifting in one corner, so sent the following email, via their website, The fine grit surface on my SANDING BLOCK WEDGE 140mm x 51mm Is starting to lift at one corner. Is it possible for me to obtain a replacement grit surface, and to be able to glue it onto the holder. After removal of the old abrasive of course. I received this in reply this morning: We are sorry to hear you have a problem with the sanding block. We will send you a replacement sheet with fitting instructions free of charge. Service is as good as their tools it would seem. Thankyou Permagrit.

Hi Jason, I have always used plaster board. I buy the smallest sheet cut it t size with a Stanley knife, for a perfect fit to my desk top. Easy. But you must seal the cut edges with masking tape, otherwise plaster will deposit itself all over your dining room. You could then be in some bother with the boss! -
I’ll vote for, and build anything that is impossible to crash.Leave it with you!

Inspiring reading all of this! I trust all these misfortunes occurred when you were newbies, or very young, and so could not possibly happen now that you are all so much older and wiser eh!

Good tip. Thanks. If I remember correctly when a call is made to Dyson direct, after you give them a few basic details, the know exactly which of their products you own. Also Dyson have never rang me in 10 years, or so.

I have the B & D version, with chuck. Suits me fine, all Dremel accessories fit ok. Yes chuck is a must. Being as Santa is waking up, I thought he might bring me a proxxon scroll saw, any advice about those guys?
-
Thank you Dennis. I’ll do it that way.

Im attempting my first covering using two colours on a wing (top and bottom) Where is the correct place for the joint on the wing leading edge? I.e. halfway down, or out of sight underneath etc. Cheers.

Middle photo above. Who's the geezer spying on you?? Top shelf leftmost. I just don't like the look of him, very pasty faced.

Hi Bill, Looking very good. Learning curve is ever ongoing which I find keeps me interested. Always more ways than one, and the forumites here know all of them as a group. Very helpful guys always willing to help. Elevator joiner typical photo:

Cheers Dennis, I guessed it would be a problem. I'll think of something else. Perhaps epoxy down the hole, and PVA to fill the groove orneven leave it open and just over cover the open slot. Thanks again.
-
Quick question please. If I fill the groove/slot on the elevator joiner with epoxy, which I then intend to sand to profile, will my heatshrink covering adhere to the epoxy ok? Regards, Glyn44

Two Irishmen flew to Canada on a hunting trip. They chartered a small plane to take them into the Rockies for a week hunting moose. They managed to bag 6. As they were loading the plane to return, the pilot said the plane could take only 4 moose. The two lads objected strongly. "Last year we shot six. The pilot let us take them all and he had the same plane as yours." Reluctantly, the pilot gave in and all six were loaded. The plane took off. However, while attempting to cross some mountains even on full power the little plane couldn't possibly handle the load and went down. Somehow, surrounded by the moose bodies, only Paddy and Mick survived the crash. After climbing out of the wreckage, Paddy asked Mick, "Any idea where we are?" Mick replied, "I think we're pretty close to where we crashed last year."

Anything from Wot from Chris Foss for me.

Steve you remind of someone, can't put my finger on it though.
