Has anybody seen these before and any thoughts on it, please? Is there any correlation between the push speed, the speed of the screwdriver/drill and the speed of the saw I could easily see a mechanised version very easily using a Nema 23 and an SMCO1 stepper controller to take the place of the...

but are you a real person or a AI bot?

Yes, I am in agreement with you. 100% on this. I cannot believe the price of wood. It is absolutely astronomical. I'm based in Spain now and have been for 25 years and is not actually used very much in Spanish houses apart from the doors and even then most of those are pre-moulded things with a...

yes my Garmin Oregon 650T handheld GPS,it was brilliant but shortly after buying it less than a year, I was no longer able to use it because both my knees failed and I wasn't able to walk where I was going to use it so I thought well I'm never gonna use this again because they told me I would...

Well that was interesting to see. I'm in Spain and don't need a VPN to see it. It works fine but then most of the BBC doesn't actually want to watch one of their own programs after which you will need a VPN this I think was a news article so it gets presented with adverts over here in Sp. I'll...

I am getting seriously sick of these begging letters....

Heres mine, took me 4 days to trace this fault, :dunno:over 100 wires to go through, single phase and 3 phase power in my fuse boards, radial wiring as it is in Spain , in each room we have small boxes in the walls that are incorporated into the plaster and all the conduit and cables from each...

you can pick up quite easily a good fully working Hilti DX450 for under 150 gbp.If Im firing gun powder in these things I would rather use some thing a little newer to be honest. We we use them over here all the time in Spain because Spanish houses are constructed 99% from concrete block beam...

From first hand knowledge as my life long friend in the UK recently retired was a Diplomatic and Political protection officer who worked at a very senior level so much so I would regularly see this person sometimes daily on the TV news, they are incredibly well trained in firearms, defensive...

Despite what the Police might have said a few years back, Ive spoken to a friend of mine in the UK police force who is a firearms officer and he feels that you should hand it into your local larger branch of the police assuming there is one because it is actually capable of firing a blank...

100% radio removal tool as I have identical ones that came with my car!

I actually built my own. I don't know if you're aware but in this part of Spain it's actually legal to grow your own marijuana at home as long as it's not visible on the street and it's for personal consumption. I simply bolted together two of the marijuana air extraction devices which are used...

For the sort of money you're talking about here you will not get a signature or decent planer to do chopping boards for sure there are also issues with doing shopping boards sicknesses because you may force the board apart. To be honest mate chessboards and chopping boards you need a damn good...

I've fitted many toilets over the years both in the UK and where I live here in Spain as part of our construction business that I used to run here I since retired but I still keep my irons in the fire. I'm not up-to-date on UK codes and space requirements and so on but I'm a great believer in my...
