Hi, yeah, stainless screws may be better than the originals and although obviously rust proof are still quite soft and would be even more awkward to remove for various reasons if there was a problem.

`Unbrako` are a recommendation for top quality high tensile Allen screws and Allen keys,very unlikely to round off, a proper engineering product, I`m assuming it`s an ordinary Allen screw, if so should be easily available. Sorry to butt in, cheers

 

That great information, I'll look I to getting some. Its great the stuff you can find out on arbtalk.

Think you made the right choice with the polyurethane as I have used the acrylic varnish and it leaves a rather pale look on end grain and not the depth of colour you have achieved. A picture of our kitchen cupboard. The carcase is finished with polyurethane and the shelves with the acrylic.

 

 

Interesting that! Cheers for the advice

With help from Dan Earp I've just bought a Nova DVR lathe, just like the one he got a couple of weeks ago, in fact from the same place.

Mentioned to Dan the other day how jealous I was of his recent purchase and he phoned the bloke up to find that he had another one for sale. A few hectic phonecalls later and the deals done. Hopefully I'm picking it up on a week Saturday.

Again many thanks Dan, wouldn't have got it without you, but I'd be richer 😁😁
