  1. The row of planes he passes right after the mystery thing with a handle were all in excess of R5,000.00 a plane The really big planes cost in excess of R35,000.00 Jeez Louise :eek:
  2. That is such nice material! Probably going to turn it into some architectural feature in one of the new office buildings in Maputo
  3. Le Turbo is your man down in the WC...super talented hubber that doesn't post enough on here, send him a PM. What you want done is easily achieved with a lathe for all the handles and then some bandsaw work on the rest
  4. Nee, nog altyd African National Congress, met die SAKP en COSATU wat in die jare 60 en 70 verenig gestaan het verandering af te dwing.
  5. Angry laaitie that!
  6. ROOFKYKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  7. I agree, but this is what I do and I did it just this morning regarding boat hardware; Phone the shop and ask about stock availability, then ask if they can quote on X number of units with delivery by PostNet. It is a long-winded approach, but it works 90% of the time. I've bought from Strand Hardware in that fashion before, so they are open to that.
  8. PS: Great job on the table, looks professional!
  9. If you look in the earlier pages of this thread I showed some of my router table jigs for box-joints. Very easy project with super results in the finished product. Go for it!
  10. Called a "dimpler", originated in the drywall industry
  11. I use their vernier. I know its a ball ache, but rather drill 9mm hole for 10mm dowel. For your current predicament: buy larger dowel, sand down to requirded od Edit: fit bigger dowel in drill, grab 100grit paper and start working it down, goes quick
  12. Kingsize coke at the counter
  13. The problem I personally have with an affordable tool is the evident lack of balance and ergonomics in most. They lack stability and accuracy: two of my personal experiences The R1000-00 18V Ryobi works, but it doesn't sit well, is unbalanced and a dog after screw 200. The DeWalt 18V at R2000-00 (what I paid 1 year ago) is a blast to work with, the batteries charge in no time and 460 screw later (fence repairs after wind) I only suffered from a sore thumb (460 screws are plenty!) Ryobi table saw vs Makita table saw = no comparison. Ryobi had a wobbly blade, needed constant realignment and to be set square every 5 cuts, my Makita get checked weekly and needs a reset perhaps twice a month. However, we all have Myles' problem, money! Otherwise we will all be using the better cast, more accurate machines and tools. I have however found great value in other peoples secondhand goods. A bit of spit and polish and I make them mine
  14. And with this bit, it goes quite a bit faster too
  15. WHAHAHAHA
  16. Sausage rolls
  17. Korrek, maar soos "open plan office environments" en ander korporatiewe mislukkings soos persoonlike bestekopnames (wat deur MH ontwerp en gedryf word), sal die meeste "bestuurders" sukkel met heirdie konsepte. Die konsep van besig lyk en effektiewe werk/taak verrigting word al vir eeue lank verwar met mekaar. Meeste organisasies will albei hê en ons almal weet wat dit vir die werksmag doen!
  18. ...anyhow, just wanted to know if you have any racy/saucy pictures you'd like to share while Slowbee is busy...???
  19. So being a voyeur for a week was fun or not? What were the highlights for you?
  20. Stem, mens kry net lekker ritme dan sak die son en jy moet gereed maak vir Maandag
  21. It is wise in life to choose your battles carefully!
  22. I bet if you speak to his staff you'll find the "mild mannered MD" to be a regular bully type. He's probably not really missed at work today
  23. I only have the free PS subscription
  24. He's really talented, but don't you find him a bit (plenty) arrogant sometimes?
