Cheers for that, I do find this very interesting but my current understanding is basically 0%. Is shellac sanding sealer a different product from just shellac? At the moment I have something to finish with paint that the customer is bringing in (it's to match the doors or something). It's a chalk pa...

Hi I find all this really interesting but I have a questions about the shellac sanding sealer. What exactly is the purpose of it? Is it to seal the paint? Provide a protective finish? Why would I need to add a wax etc afterwards? The hand finishing side of things is something I'd like to introduce b...

All good points folks. I have two, the one for the CMC is emits a hum when filling the larger one (faulty one) can be loud - but at the same time it's only for 1-2mins in the morning and a few 10-20 secs of refilling throughout the day so I don't think the volume would be a real issue for me. Our wo...

Hi Our Bambi PT50 compressor is dying and to replace it seems to be around the £1000 mark. Can anyone recommend a suitable replacement. It's currently with a local repair shop but I'm not sure how that's going to end. In hindsight I suppose we should have something as a backup for times like this. I...

Hi Rob

How much are you looking for them?

I'd also just take a quick check with the vertical fences on your underpinner too

Hi I've been send this photo of an existing job & they want to replicate it with a new painting. I'm struggling to work out what's actually going on though. I take it the backing is just a bit of MDF painted but I'm unfamiliar with the inner & outer options Does anyone have an better suggest...

Hi

Ah! Didn't spot the ECO part, I did see they were branded but it wouldn't be hard to print a few stickers :) Anyway, I know everyone is wondering what I did next - Nothing, apart from buying a box at full price from my regular supplier :) On a similar topic, I once bought a box of LC100 blades in er...

Yip

No, like everyone else is saying - that's just nowhere near good enough & I'd be telling them to change the blade for a start

A company called Quality Wood Mouldings supplies flagship, I think that's the 6040 range. You can buy direct from them.

There's a local bar getting a full refurb, they came in recently looking about 60-70 little things framed, varying colours in mounts and mouldings. Needless to say I could have kissed him, I have that much stuff that I've kept over the years, I was on the verge of dumping the lot recently but I'm gl...

Right, I've ordered a small pot. It's actually cheaper too! I'll give it a go - nothing ventured and all that

Thanks for that
