It should only get a little bit wet, mainly on the bottom bit. If it gets wet on the top then this is very bad and you will then need to run around in a panik shouting loud and clearly things like -'-its sinking' or 'give me your bucket' and of course the old favorite ---'swim for it'.

We don't want to have to "swim for it". Too many http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/pre...ors-43518.html.

Clue: Always make sure bearing on router laminte trimmer bit is well secured.

Epoxy impregnated sawdust makes a good patch.

That's right up there with "don't feed meat to your power tools"

This could have been avoided by use of the ‘‘moaning chair’’ . . .



This guy got the message and put one up right next to his build . . .



And some work he does from the ‘‘work chair’’ . . .

Oh well, maybe you thought of that solution by use of the moaning chair . . .

Good luck !

Yep, but mine is just a plastic lawn chair. I find it very useful.

Ah the moaning chair. You know when some one says something and it all makes sense.

It ‘‘should be a comfortable seat’’ Chapelle said . . . .



Sitting on the wrong chair would give the wrong visions . . .

Good luck !

Getting close to desperation rather than moaning.

Judging from the surprising amount of correspondence on the subject, a moaning chair is more important than I thought. I'd better get one . . . sounds like sitting on a portable worktable contemplating the flies in the epoxy pot doesn't count. How comfortable do I have to be to get the full benefit - should I move the beer fridge into the workshop as well?

Maybe the portable worktable is fine Terry, it depends on how flexible you are . . .

Chapelle didn't specify the drinks, so I guess anything that makes you comfortable would do . .

But maybe you need a ‘‘swear words book’’ if you don't know enough of them . . .

Not quite that flexible! The worktable has one advantage, it has a built-in alarm, although not of the acoustic type.

I think I may have contributed a lot of original and creative work to that book . . .

Dammit Angelique, you have given us a link that will cost me money. I have to have the book titled ; Filthy English. I do believe that my vocabulary of profanity is more than adequate, however the book promises information about etymology and other interesting stuff. Sounds like a fun read.
