I'm fitting a kitchen shortly and since I have wanted to buy a router for ages now, I thought I'd treat myself to one as I've got some mason mitres to cut in 40mm worktop. I've had my eye on the Erbauer 210c 2100W router as it comes with 1/4" & 1/2" collets and after reading the reviews am...

Thanks. By wrong side I assume you mean cut upside down if using a circular saw into the front edge? If using a router, do I just go into the top good side up from left to right? One of my worktops is a breakfast bar and is bullnosed on both edges. Can I use the same methods, but go into both...

I want to cut some lengths of worktop to length and will have 2 ends that I will need to stick edging onto. To obtain a really nice and clean straight cut, should I cut roughly to length, then finish with a router run along a straight edge? If so, what bit will I need and which way up should the...

It's in the kitchen which isn't that big. Probably 9' x 9' and there's not much traffic as it's for a person on there own so mostly just her in the house. She'll be getting tiles for around £4 each so they're not top quality but we want it looking nice.

Can anyone tell me if it is okay to lay carpet tiles over moisture resistant chipboard flooring(the green boards)? If so, should it be glued down to it? Also, can these green boards be attached to a concrete floor using a grab adhesive? :)

I've fitted the wall units with metal anchor bolts and they ain't going nowhere. They grip action they give has secured the hanging brackets really strongly, and as an extra, although probably unnessessary, I've also fixed L-Brackets along the top of the units to the wall. I'm happy with the...

I want to hang some kitchen wall units up on 12mm plasterboard and was going to use the metal hollow wall anchor grip bolts. There are no studs behind the plasterboard because it is the wall panels from years ago where it is the cardboard sandwiched between 2 sheets of 12mm plasterboard, much...

Yeah, much cheaper option Foxhole, but I'm interested to know about my circular saw question all the same. Would a new fine cut handsaw be ok then?

I want to cut some kitchen worktops to length and since I want to purchase a circular saw anyway, I wondered if I might to able to purchase one for around £50-£60 which will give me nice clean cuts. What minimum rpm and blades are preferable for these type of cuts. It's not something I do that...

thanks :)

I'm after a kitchen worktop jig, but don't want to spend a fortune on one, but at the same time, don't want a cheap model. I've had a look online and have seen the Topform jigs which they are selling for half price and state they are the original and best. They come with thicker pegs for good...

That's a really good idea Foxhole. That way I would be able to fix the normal 2" or so hanging rail brackets(you know what I mean) where I need them anywhere along the length of the plywood, knowing I have now have the strength of the overall run fixed to the studs. Also thanks JoinerJohn too...

Thanks guys. Yeah, I see what you're saying now.

Hi. Thanks for a quick reply. Can I ask why you say not to cut hanging rail to width of each unit?
