    Table saw problem

    Putting some 50mm timber through my 2HP table saw and taking my time it suddenly cut out...I wasn't overdoing it and eased off whenever I thought the blade was working too hard...not a case of overheating. The motor wouldn't restart and not being a techy type I thought I'd at least check the...

    Sat in the pub....

    No point...but having been a reader of posts on here for a while and seen what a chummy lot you are, I figured I'd chuck in a bit of sarcasm to see who would bite first..... Have a nice day!

    What would you have done here?

    Why not dig out those steps reducing the slope and one of these at the back/side door?

    Dogs Dirt!!!

    Stangely I've found the opposite.I live on a council estate and it's the norm to see people picking up after their dogs. (Something you never saw 20 years ago) There are some ar**holes that don't of course, but they don't let the dogs do it when anyone's watching, because they know they're...
