Podcast – Stu's Shed

I made this video while I was creating a vertical garden for an article in The Shed magazine. Lost the files for a while (and forgot I had shot the video!!), but here it is at long last!

A quick video of the Lancaster Bomber being cut out. I don’t want to think how long it took this video to actually get done – so many delays, so few windows of opportunity to work on it! I decided to cut my losses and just put together what I had, rather than stress too […]

Very seamless and easy way to purchase blades, brakes, inserts, even entire machines (both SawStop and MiniMax). The blade purchased will be the subject of an upcoming review. Details of delivery address and payment details have been removed from […]

First quick video of the printer working. Had a few teething problems, mainly around getting the print to adhere to the bed. Removed the aluminium bed and replaced with glass.
