  1. So have any of you guys used these cutters we had a Thistle and a Celtic Cross to ingrave into a back of a bench and there just wasn’t the room to use a standard V cutter so after a load of looking we got one of these it was only a fiver and wow it was just cutting through the Cedar so easy there was just no resistance at all and that kinda made it difficult but yeah you could almost draw free hand with it I will post some pictures tomorrow Cheers. Mark

  20. So what sanders are you all using ,we have an expensive Mirka with its own hoover but as it was so so expensive we tend to keep it for flat sanding only we have had other sanders from Makita to Flex for contor sanding and going round corners etc and all of them just dont last ,we need a new one so we poped into our local tool shop Blandford Tools and they are nice guys in there but he just didnt have any orbital sanders he was saying that he just cant get good quality at any kinda ok price I know ebay is full of sanders but I thought I would ask to see what people were using and what people thought were Crap as always keen to hear what everyone has to say . Cheers. Mark

Um no dont think its running backwards as it will take a very thin skim and yes I do polish the beds with Axminster machine wax its good stuff ,I will take some photos tomorrow just in case somebody is interested ,its not quite the same as the one in the manual but some bits are the same ,its a real shame the engineer we used killed himself
