Re: MDF CNC Router plans / parts for home build beginners
Sorry not replied for a while but I am up to my nuts in other jobs that needs to be done before I get time to play, one of them being fitting a new bathroom... seemed like a good idea at the time..!
Anyway, I should get a few hours at it again later this week so fingers crossed and keep the idea's coming because there are a few good one's in there.
Can anyone put tiles up??? only a couple of hundred.... will keep you fed with tea and hobnobs... Give me some time to do something that I enjoy doing instead.

Off topic - Ah, I take it you've not done one of those before :) there's always a first time... never (in my book at least) a second one... this time i got a couple of nice Polish guys, nicknamed Radish and Leek (thats my nearest pronounciation of their names) who did a blinding job in a week that would have taken me months (plumbing, tiling, electrical - I can do it, just not as quickly) and that included keeping building control happy...

A good idea to you or to her? There is a way out.
I am a disaster at home improvements, paint flies everywhere, she'd never ask me to do tiling.
She used to make me do car repairs in the cold and rain, eventually I put the car together without the head gasket, gritted my teeth and turned the key. Cost me £600 for new valves but she never asked me to do car repairs again. Money well spent.

Sorry, I couldnt ever do that to a car... thats sacrilege! Although working on cars in the rain is something I do try to avoid, I do recall changing the gearbox on my 1965 Triumph TR4 in 6" of snow... mad or what?

But I don't drive bird magnets like you do, this was utilitarian.
I hate driving, bores me to tears :rolleyes:
Re: MDF CNC Router plans / parts for home build beginners
Wots a bird magnet ?
How many can you get in a 3 tonne truck ?
Unless you can get a full size set of gas bottles into a vehicle without struggling, it's a waste of road tax.

I was sent this link to look at as a method of using telescopic drawer slides for linear guides ... I must admit I had not thought of using them like this ... http://imagebin.ca/img/tt45r26C.jpg It may be worth considering, but I will leave it up to those with superior knowledge to pass judgement ...
