    How to cut a double post-formed laminate breakfast bar

    You move the router in a different direction depending on whether your going on the inside or outside of a template but until it is in my hands I can't say which is which. If the router is pulling you, you're going in the wrong direction. I tend to leave the speed on full. As you say it...

    Routers

    It does look like you're going to have to pay the rip off prices or use a jointing strip which says council house. You can't cut a masons mitre with a hand saw. If you went for a square edged worktop you could butt joint it.

    New Wooden External Doors

    Ask around for recommedations for carpenters, once you've found one you like either ask him to show what doors he recommends or show him pictures of the style you like, choose a door and frame, leave him to fit it. I would expect you to pay at least £200 for the labour but the door and frame...

    Routers

    If you haven't used a router before an expensive worktop isn't the place to start your learning curve. To do a good job you would need to spend around £200 on a router, £75 on a jig and £25 on a cutter + clamps and colorfill. A kitchen fitter or an experienced carpenter would probably charge...

    Sliding wardrobe doors

    What is your background geraint? How many sliding wardrobe doors have you fitted? Are you even a tradesman? I've got a Fiat Scudo so I don't need to drive a Peugeot Expert or a Citroen Dispatch to know they are the same. As I said I have looked through your past posts and all you bring to...

    Sliding wardrobe doors

    If you have 2 identical products and one is cheaper than the other, would you buy the more expensive one? I have fitted sliding wardrobe doors from a number of different suppliers and there isn't much difference between them in quality or method of fitting. If you could pass on some of your...

Make these out of timber the...
