• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

    Kity 619 table saw rise and fall repair

    Thank you Eric, I did attempt heating the threadlock but the only blow torch available was one of the micro types. I think the surrounding metal was probably dissipating the heat too quickly. If it ever goes back together I'll drill it, heat it and try a stud extractor. Thankfully I hadn't...

    Without an actual breakdown instructions manual I would say the following is possibly the order of attack for dismantling.... Remove all the tinware, riving knife assembly, blade etc With the carriage elevated unbolt and remove the motor from behind where the saw blade should be. Lower the...

    Kity 619 table saw rise and fall repair

    So, after lots of hassle trying to get inside to the rise and fall vertical screw we had to call it a day. To confirm this has both metallic gears. The likely prognosis is that the thread, in the boss the vertical screw engages with, has worn away. Many things learned to this stage including...

    Thank you, interesting information. He is saying that he could not get access to the mechanism and thought the table needs to come off, mind you the right hand side is against the wall at present which may be the way in ? Cheers, Andy

    Workshop on a slope

    Correct building techniques would stop any damp before it became an issue and for natural light you have windows as it emerges from the gradient, doors and flat roof/pavement fenestration options. Cheers, Andy

    Workshop on a slope

    Just a thought... sunken workshop. Bring it closer to the house and use a flat roof level to the patio. Said flat roof with railings across the end to create nice place to sit and take in the views. Yes, so much more work but has advantages like being closer and not seen from the house also...

    This all does beg the question as how they are allowed to send a PM when being so new to the forum? I thought there was a minimum posting amount before getting that ability? If not, perhaps for the safety of the members something should be introduced. Cheers, Andy
