  6. Hi not in the workshop today but will take some pics from underneath tomorrow so you can see whats going on ,the customer sent me theses photos that just showed a big table top and legs similar to mine but the people who take theses photos are crafty as they never show the fixing points so you can see how its done then people who dont make things have no idea on the ballache when they give you an image and say Like That please ,but hey so glad you all like it ,and it will defo pop when we put the finish on ,got some water based exterior lacquer from Wood Finishes in Yeovil a 2 part system an impregnator that has a fungicide in it then the lacquer its bloody good stuff and the guys at Wood Finishes are really helpful . Cheers Mark

  10. Hi my 880 can be a fussy bitch to start sometimes and you just dont want to flood one I always were a leather glove to start it its bitten me back and almost taken my fingers off ha ha but it sounds like a small 2 stroke motorcycle when going especially when reving it up , I would defo say mine sings not like my carving saw but its defo got its own tune I bet I could tell one going at it down the road ,like others say the colour on the spatk plug is a good tell tale and also check the air filter on my last 880 that got stolen it had the older filter and it would fill up with sawdust quite quickly making the saw a bitch to start the newer ones have a different filter and ad they dont make them any more it could have the older filter it dont take long to unscrew the case and give it a quick clean ,good luck with it and do look after it as they dont mske them any more and I exprect they will be be like rocking horse shit to find . Cheers Mark
