Is A SawStop Table Saw Worth the Money

A couple of those a week and the entire shop program will again learn the use of a hand saw as the shop budgets won't buy many cartidges and blades. Dave Hall

Quietest Shop Vac? Need in a hurry!

There's an article in the latest FWW with plans for an enclosure for any shop vac that quiets it to the same noise level as the Fein... probably for less $$$. The current Ridgid shop vacs are well reviewed in lots of places. -- JeffB remove no.spam. to email

Secondary double glazing

Better to work out why the air is damp enough in the shop to produce the condensation. I'm assuming it's a normal shop not a hairdressers or something else that generates warm moist air.

Precision screwdriver set

Actually I should have said cheap shop rather than pound shop, it was 99p. I also got a 2kw fan heater with thermostatic control for less than 6 quid, and a jar of peanut butter with that classic health warning: http://www.flickr.com/photos/g3zvt/6433713209/lightbox/

Am I being cheated? (Premier Home Builders)

I meant to say visit the site every day and call the boss to find out why they aren't on site that day. My builder calls me to let me know if his team aren't going to be onsite for any reason - he even calls if they are onsite but will be leaving early that afternoon!
