I keep getting suckered into buying Ryobi stuff. Mainly as a consequence of the OAP deals at B and Q. (not that i qualify but my dear old mother does) So far the hedge trimmer is the only thing still running. And without tempting fate after 3 years and an acre of garden surrounded by hedges...

Again I cannot fault the level of advice on this forum. Thank you. I am static and have a two large rooms to panel (the work is actually to my own house) so I think its worth the time invested as the table will stay in my developing workshop. I take your point about those pick up trucks, there...
