First task: get rid of the woodchip ;-)
MBQ
Mind your fingers. Have you had one before?
You can often get 1/2" bits for a Pound, too. Is it a 1/2" machine?
You've got a crystal ball,havn't you?
Thats why the WM is pulled out of the corner because I'm in the throws of doing it. :-(
Got a DeWalt
Yep 1/2" inch..
Will be interested in hearing on how well it works.
I can see that the plunge depth turret is exactly the same as my =A3200 CMT (DeWalt/Elu177 rebadged) router, and the side fence looks like it would be interchangable.
My concern would be vibration levels and it's ability to cut smoothly (and safely) with larger 1/2" bits.
I did buy a PowerG biscuit jointer when Netto did them for a tenner - took that straight back as the slide was so badly made there was no hope of cutting an accurate biscuit joint.
Even if it's reasonable performance for a short while, it's a bargain at the price.
Both, actually. I won't tell you what the other bit's made of.

HAh! now you come to mention it, Netto thats where the PowerG brand came from.
From memory I think these where going fo 13.99GBP a couple of months ago?
If that was =A313.99 for the biscuit jointer, they were overpriced for what they were!
The message from snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com contains these words:
I /like/ woodchip.
So do I - on ceilings.
How many did you buy, and are they on eBay yet? ;-)
